Congrats on that. I know how much sacrificed it needed to graduate cum laude. That being said, I also know how satisfied it is when you get the result.
Trust me, I've been there..

Good luck on your future career.

Congrats Bud. Knew you could do it.

**MctPhoenix** · 05-05-2012, 04:12 PM

Congrats Kareem and thanks for sharing your excitement with your LX family. I didn't know about your dad but rest assured you made him proud. Now go have fun, you've got lots of missed parties to make up for.

Congratulaions Kareem! You be the man .....

**LIME 108** · 05-05-2012, 07:51 PM

Congratulations on your fantastic achievement, given this last semester, a lot of people would have just hung it up, but you did it man.

So tell me, that first paragraph was just some fiction writing of yours, RIGHT??
Cause I've not seen a college student party like you do and pull off what you just did.

**ChargerChick** · 05-05-2012, 08:48 PM

That's awesome Kareem! Congratulations!!

Thanks to you and to your wife. You seriously have been like a 2nd family to me here in the U.S.

A lot have been sacrificed and compromised given that I had to work my way up from 2.4 GPA to 3.45 GPA in 2-3 semester. Gave up most of my social life for this but it was well well well worth it. Thanks bud

That's what a lot have been telling me and I am accepting it. Sometimes its good to hear that he is indeed proud of me from several people so it can sink in. Oh, don't you worry, I am making up for lost time this summer lol

Yes, a lot of people would have and I am very proud to say that I punished my way through it. I used to go out and have fun and all of that but I had to really really crack down the past 2 semesters. My life outside of school ended this past year and a half though. When you would see me at our weekly car show that was pretty much the only time I would leave the house or that is when I had a break from school. One day or one night out of the week.

Mr. Kareem,

I am proud of you, I know you were thinking of putting your education in jepordy in order to go to your fathers funeral but you kept to the task at hand.

They can't take away your education but they can tax what you do with it.

How long are you staying in Phoenix.

You need some time off. The Nevada Open Road Challenge is two weeks away. Check it out here Silver State Classic Challenge Inc.

**PhoenixR/T** · 05-06-2012, 01:50 AM

Congrats to you and your achievements. That is a very hard thing to do when people around you are going out drinking/having fun to open up a book or write that paper. Your dad is proud. What a great story.. Best of luck to you in the future as well. Nice Job. Thanks for sharing

**ICLOSEM** · 05-06-2012, 11:03 PM

Nice work Kareem! Don't forget about us little people when you go back!

Thank you bud!!! Yea it was really hard, given how big of party school ASU is and how I used to be in the biggest fraternity on campus. Definitely not easy. Had to do what I had to do. I am sure he is

I definitely won't, this club is really like a second family to me

. I remember some of my biggest dilemmas that I encountered when I lived in Arizona were fixed by this club
