I'm going back to school aftre 24 years!!!!
« on: September 29, 2011, 06:57:07 PM »
Well, it took me a while, but I finally found the class I want.

I am going back to school after 24 years, and It will be at VIU in September 2012. I am going to be taking the 2 year Fisheries & Aquaculture Diploma Course.

I need to go back to school here in the Langley area to upgrade because i quit school before graduation 20+ years ago, so I need to take a few classes first to qualify.

I Start my first class in 24 years, next week. I will be taking Math 11, then when I complete that, I will need to take BIO 11, and English 12 in January!

I am SOOOOOOOOO excited about this! ;D ;D

So, this is a fair warning to all of you on the Island, I coming over in a year, so you might want to think about moving off the Rock!!!!!!!! ::) ::) ::)

I could see maybe 10 or 15 years but 24 seems like being a bit of a slacker. :-\

Hit the books old boy and don't be wasting time chasing fish around on the island. :)

--Great Idea: as a poor student I had to fish for food... easy pickings on the island in those days.. prawns, salmon, oysters etc.
--Have never eaten so well since working for a living.
