I had my graduation just last Thursday. I'm an adult now! (I guess.) Who else is now either an adult or a supposed member of the workforce?

I graduated from Covenant College a number of weeks ago. And then I had a graduation party and got hundreds of dollars from family and friends. My advice is this: GRADUATE.

Providing everything goes to plan I should be the proud owner of a shiny new postgraduate degree in a couple of months.

If I was following my original plan, I'd be graduating now too... but I'm not so I won't be adorned with a shiny bachelors' degree for a number of years yet. (But I'll have an only marginally less shiny associates' next year :confused:)

I got my Bachelors (finally) in computer science, and I'll be getting my masters at the end of next year thanks to the one year masters program over at Sheffield.

Whoa awesome. I've always sort of wanted to be a teacher, just because I think I'd be good at it.

How many hoops and/or tribulations do you have to go through to get an education in educating?

Well, I didn't really bother doing anything in college for it. I was going to take an Intro to Education course, but it was going to be way too expensive so I decided against it.
From what my teacher friends have told me, in my county all I have to do is take a few tests; I take a general test (which is what I'm worried about, since it's got math on it and I suck at math), and then a subject-specific test. I'm going to get certified for English and Japanese, although actually I don't think there's a test in place for Japanese so I don't know how they're going to do that.
Maybe they'll just hand over the certification, who knows.
I'm pretty nervous about it, I hope it goes well. I also hope I don't get assigned to some really crappy school...

Congratulations! Sure has been a long ride, huh?

oh yeah, best of luck to all of you graduates. I finally have a job that I absolutely love, but it took a few tries, some luck, and a lot lot lot of persistence. And since I, too, never used my undergrad degree, I'm several years behind and accrued a lot of loan debt. A word of warning to those on the fence about college: a good trade school or focused degree (no matter what paper you come out with) can be much better than a four-year blur at a university. And be sure to follow up with any internships that come your way.

But I'm old and out of touch, I imagine.
