    Talking Victory over academia!

    It's done! I've turned in my final paper, tied up all the loose ends, paid all my outstanding fees, dotted the "i"s and crossed the "t"s...

    Two years (and lots of $$$) after I first began, I finally have my Master's degree in Business Administration (MBA). I'm graduating with a 4.0 GPA -- something that in my undergraduate days would have been unthinkable.

    My job hunt has already begun a while ago, but will get into full swing now that my time can be spent in doing so. (Hehe... So any tips & leads are always welcome... My PM box is wiiiiiide open. )

    In the mean time, for all my local friends here in Japan (but anyone who wants to fly over the pond to join us) I'm planning a massive celebration, the likes of which this sleepy town has never imagined.

    Happy day!!!!

    Congratulations.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    Congratulations!

    With your lingual skills, and the degree, you have a lot going for you in today's market. Are you trying to look in international banking, or manufacturing?

    Well done, CDN.
    My daughter will also be a Master (MPharm) by the end of the year.
    My own dreams of an MA seem rather distant now, but we’ll see.
    Will you go through a formal graduation? And kilted, perhaps?
    Regards,
    Mike
