The one you all helped me with--thanks again!!! She was very interested in the fact that all of my respondents were runners. She is a walker, but I'll see if I can get her to come to our side.  (Keep in mind that I barely qualify as a runner. I'm almost a brisk walker when you look at my speed.  )
 to you all!!

that's fantastic brie! I couldn't participate at the time because I was doing all my computer stuff at school. I would have loved to answer those questions for your project.

Congratulations! Doesn't it seem like school is easier when you're older? Are we more responsible or take it more seriously? Or we just have more experience in life?

actually, you learn how to do better in school. that's why you usually get A's in your last years. i guess you kinda figure out (or i suppose some people don't )
great job CF!! - did she think there was some correlation between runners and not wanting to kill/rape people? maybe the endorphins keep me sedated...

Ding ding ding...we have a winner! Its All of the above!
I find at this age I can control my ADHD much better than when I was young. Of course most of my classes now are computer or personal development.
Great Job Brie

Thanks everyone
I think for me, I'm just really motivated, because I know how much it costs to live, and that some employers really like that whole degree thing. PLUS I have to pay for this. My tuition is $314 per credit hour, so at 125 credits, I'm racking up some bill. I'm not going to waste my $$ on poor grades. I may get a poor grade at some point, but it will be something I earn honestly, not because I didn't give it my best effort.
Funny thing is, History, which is my hardest subject, I'm getting A's on my papers, event though he picks them apart. I'd have a complex by now if he'd use red ink. Sociology I've gotten 14 grades so far, all of them A's. Law & Ethics though? The one class I should be mastering this semester since it pertains to what I'm going to do? Bs. This course is kicking my arse!! Hopefully my two large projects in this course will balance out the chapter work. I've just got to get an A in that.
Anyhoo, thanks again. You all have been so supportive. I appreciate it!!
