Well Ime done with my high school all I have now is the vocational program. I just can't believe I've made it back in 7th an 8th grade I hit a true low point to we're I seriously didn't know what life would bring. I had principals telling me I was there worst student ever an then other significant people of authority telling me I would never make it the way I was. I had great parents an family thoe an friends that's what got me through trually difficult times. Just truly amazing from we're I was years back.

Congratulations for sticking it out.  My last six months of high school I had to hold my breath, or go ballistic on a certain teacher that was pushing me to fail.   Good going on the vocational end of it, may you do well. 

I'm glad you stuck it out, and I hope our encouragement over the years helped.

Neil,

There is nothing I can add to the advice given already in this thread, from some very wise men.

I know you will do well in whatever you pursue, you have already shown those of us who have been here a while what you can do.

I think I can speak for all of us, that we are here for you, if ever you should need advice or just a small push to get you going, should you stall in your pursuits from this point on.

Proud to call you a friend, that is certain. You are an inspiration to some of us, at times.

Keep it up, you will do great things in your time. Your determination is an awesome trait to have.

Thanks guys, it's been so great having a forum like this. You guys may not realize how much it's helped but its trually helped In its own way. I have made so many friends here its great.
