Bearing the cost

I wish she would grow up. She wasted all her school time wanting to be the age she is now, and she'll waste all the rest of her life trying to stay that age. Her whole idea is to race on to the silliest time of one's life as quick as she can and then stop there as long as she can. - Lewis, "The Last Battle" - about Susan and how silly she is being, saying that Narnia is for children

Big news

I've decided not to graduate.

Huh? you say.

It's true. After four years of college, I've decided that there are things I want to do which I couldn't do because of other things. So, this summer I'm taking a Latin refresher course, and in the fall I'm taking two Greek classes to finish a minor, and getting Honors done, since I need to fill 12 hours anyway. I came up with this all by myself, actually, without any parental input or advice. Very different for me - making decisions all by myself, trying to see outside the box and move in a godly fashion. This is different. Needless to say, I'm a little shocked at myself, but I feel really good about this decision.

    How did you decide not to graduate? Didn't you already walk and everything?

    Sure did. Then I decided not to graduate, called up the College of A&S and moved graduation to December.
