Starting College -- HOORAY for ME!!!

    I am just so excited. Earlier this week I applied for admittance to my local community college and today I registered for my first class!
    (One class for the summer session to see how this college stuff plays out.)

    I am taking "Introduction to Logic". (All smart remarks about how this is a very good idea for me are quite unnecessary! ) This course is transferable later on for credit to the University down the road.

    Seriously, I'd like to thank larc for starting a thread a while back where people discussed their college/university experiences which really put the bug in me to attend. AND I have realized from this forum and other ex-JW websites that I have a LOT to learn about critical thinking and logic, so this seemed a good place to start!

    HOORAY! HOORAY! (doing a little happy dance here!)
    Just wanted to share my joy!

    Congratulations! You're about to embark on one of the most rewarding and enjoyable experiences you can imagine. It'll have it's ups and downs, but I'm sure it'll be a bull market for you in the long run!

    "Introduction to Logic", eh? Is that rhetorical logic or digital logic?

    Yaaaaayyyyyy OUT!!!!!!!

    I'm so happy for you! I remember what a great feeling it was to embark on my college career. The very first time I sat in a college class, I had a big grin on my face and I kept thinking "Wow, I'm actually in college!" I know you'll enjoy it and that you'll do well.

    I am envious, I have to wait until my wife finishes college before I can go back to college. At the rate she is going, it will be quite a wait too.
