Congrats. That probably feels really good.
I never liked school. Authority, busy work, rote memorization. I always liked to learn ground up, with a purpose. And choosing what I wanted to be before i was even aware of myself felt limiting.
Perhaps I'll go someday, I could never afford to not work, but today, I think I'd be pretty decent at school..go figure.
tbh, I wouldn't trade my "education" for the world. If I could do it again, I'd do the same, i think.
I only started going when I was 28. I'm also a very independent learner, I was unschooled as a child, but I love it.
I'm the top student in most of my classes and I have straight As. It's nice to prove to myself I'm able to succeed in school when I didn't go when I was younger. You should give it a try, you might be surprised how much you actually enjoy it! I know I was.
Perhaps I will get around to it. I do think I'd enjoy it, but for something I'd want to learn, not for a job. Tbh, the schedule would be what got me. I don't like em. I like flapping on the wind lol. I definitely understand your sense of pride in your accomplishment, you deserve it. (:
