High School Graduation

How many of you are still trying to graduate from high school here? I have been here for over a year and still don't have my requirements fulfilled... :(

I have a meager Pops Top Notch Top Shoppe job and it doesn't pay very well... hehe.

Haha, are you speaking of the High School Equivalence? ;) For a long while there, I thought you were talking about real high school. Then I thought it was rather odd that someone of your age would still be in high school. The only "requirements" you need to purchase your HSE is $5000. I'm sure there are some generous individuals around here who'd be more than willing to assist you in that area. O:)

And thank you too Laura Ingalls!!!

Haha, I thought the same thing as Trent. I was like "Umm, wow, I thought Jacob was smarter than that but he must be a dummy if he hasn't graduated high school yet in the 'real world'." But yeah, I don't have anything to donate extra really. :( But best of luck! \:D/

I just deposited the money into my savings account, so we'll see how that helps... :) Any more donations?

I graduated from real high school 2 years ago.;) hehe... I didn't make myself very clear. :)

Well, didn't you only have like 12 posts before your return? It seems you have been enjoying our company again! \:D/

Tis true... I hope they'll unblock this site at college, though I don't think they will be that gracious.

Most people don't have near enough for an HSE even when they have 1000 posts... you're doing pretty good. ;)

I thought you meant real school at first, too. Hope this helps a little. *Donates*

Sorry to confuse y'all... and it was very helpful! It's all going to the bank to gain interest! Thanks again.

I'm about 500 dollars away from graduation. I really am thankful for all the help you guys gave!

Patience and perseverance, my dear Jacob. ;) But I'm sure that you've done a great job at Pop's Top Notch Shoppe! \:D/ Will you buy my hair before you quit? ;)

buy it? Or cut it...? Unless the shop is running some kind of underground hair trading on the side :-

All trimmed, Catspaw. Then I bought my High School Equivalence... Thanks y'all. Now, onto that Business Degree.... Does anyone care to help me out? ;)

I'm now employed as a Marys Story Shop Worker. Are there any jobs that pay higher than 100 to high school grads?

Nope. See here for pay info. :)

Somebody needs to listen to more AIO eps! ;) Apparently "Gifts for Madge and Guy" isn't an ep you've heard. :(

Glad you like it. Took you enough money to get it trimmed. :) Wow, this new job at Mary's Story Shop sure is a sight for sore eyes.

Actually, that isn't true. The Master Job List includes a few jobs that pay more than $100, but they may not be available over at the Jobs.

I stand corrected, Trent :anxious: There wasn't anything available when I got my job. They've probably all been taken. :(

Ah, yes the "Gift of the Magi" referenced ep... No, not yet. :(
