Well, I finally made it through and finally graduated. Kari and I got home tonight from being back in NC for a couple days to get ready for graduation. Of course, I added some photo's for all to enjoy.Representing the Political Science grads.100_7990.jpg

Thanks for the comments guys. I feel relieved that it is finally over and ready for the next step. Kari appreciates the beautiful comment that was made, and Steve, the honor cords were for Chi Delta Chi (Red, White, and Blue), the National Veterans Honor Society and for Phi Alpha Delta (Yellow and Purple), a National Legal Fraternity. I take the LSAT on June 16 to try and see if I can get into UF Law School. As far as working, I would love to get off my lazy butt, but I still have a house I am trying to get unpacked, and unfortunately, while my wife is happier being back in our hometown of Ocala, FL...there aren't hardly any jobs, unless you work in healthcare. Now I am wishing I had majored in Health Care Administration. :D My PoliSci degree will pay off in the long run.:)

marc, i've watched you struggle and advance for years now. you know, of course, my slacker comment was all in jest. and i know you took it that way. i think most are proud of you, your family, and especially your accomplishments. i look forward to seeing you get your law degree. you've got quite a head on your shoulders.;) and you sure did marry up... steve

I absolutely took it in jest. I know you well enough, as well as others, on here to know that no one meant anything negative by saying those comments. The downside to my degree is that I pretty much have to go to grad school to make anything of it. I definitely can't afford to go to D.C. and work on a congressional staff and make 20K a year. Things are tight now, as they have been in the past, but everything always seems to work out. Right now I just want a job to hold me over until I do possibly start law school. Even if I don't go to law school, I am already looking at alternate master's programs that I could do, either in Gainesville or online. Who knows? It's just nice to know that there is a community out there that gets behind people no matter what they have going on.
