(German Studies) |
"I graduated in May( 2001) with my Master's in Social
Work. It really was an incredible experience -- I learned a great (!)
deal. I worked very hard (and ended up with a 3.88 GPA!) Edward and
I eloped a few weeks ago to St. Lucia. We had a great trip, though it
doesn't seem that married life is much different! I'm working at Catholic
Charities in foster care. It's pretty demanding and can be tough work.
Until I become licensed (which happens two yrs. after you graduate),
I'm pretty much paying my dues. Anyhow, that's the news from here."
