This is non PC or CS related... everyone should know that I have been going to school full time, well I just got my grades and the verdict is....... my over all GPA is 3.555 for the term and my career GPA is 3.52!!!!!

My DH said " well now don't' I just feel dumb compared to my wife"... I asked him what does that mean.. he said" I am engineer and your a business major that is what that means" LOL!!! I really don't' get it but who cares!!:D :D :D :D
 
Congratulations...I know from experience how hard that is to do with work, kids, etc.

...and don't read into engineer jokes, they're sometimes stupid and pointless...I know - I am an engineer!

Yeah, I got an engineer cap from someone for my college graduation.

Did you get your son one of those this year when he graduated?????

...and figures that I have a son who LOVES trains! He is outside the back door right now gathering scraps of wood from the woodpile and putting them across a railroad tie to make pretend railroad tracks...as I'm typing he just pushed his toy car up to the "railroad crossing"...
 
Way to go, smartie pants! (But I mean that in the nicest way!)

Leah - You'll find graduate school SO much easier than undergrad (at least I did). If you can do good now, you'll do great then!

1. How can I effectively brag about my achievements without coming across as arrogant?

One way to brag without sounding arrogant is to focus on specific accomplishments rather than general statements about yourself. This can include sharing statistics, testimonials, or other evidence of your success.

2. What are some appropriate situations to brag about myself in a professional setting?

It is appropriate to brag about yourself in situations where you are asked about your accomplishments, such as during a job interview or performance review. You can also share your achievements in a networking or industry event.

3. Is it okay to use humor when bragging about myself?

Using humor can be an effective way to brag without sounding too serious or self-absorbed. However, be careful not to overdo it or use self-deprecating humor, as this can undermine your achievements.

4. How can I make my bragging more relatable to others?

One way to make your bragging more relatable is to tie it to a larger goal or mission. For example, instead of just mentioning a promotion, you can talk about how it aligns with your passion for making a positive impact in your industry.

5. Should I brag about my failures as well as my successes?

It is not always necessary to mention your failures when bragging about yourself. However, if you can share how you overcame a challenge or learned from a mistake, it can demonstrate resilience and growth, making your bragging more authentic and relatable.
