Smile Hello...I'm new here!

Hello everyone!

I've been reading this entire folder intently over the last month or so and I finally decided to post.

I'm currently interested in pursuing AI. I would loved to have rushed in college but I had to work and did not have extra money for dues and such. But now I'm an old gal at 28 and I feel like this is the perfect time to see if AI is a possibility for me. I realize how rare it is for successful AI, but now is the time and I'm ready to take a chance.

However my story turns out, I'm really enjoying the support I see on these boards and particularly in the AI folder. You all are a credit to your organizations.

So now if you see me popping into conversations, you'll know who I am!

Welcome to the forum. Your situation kind of resembles mine.

Everyone- there has been even more progress. But I don't want to reveal details yet.

Welcome to the forum, SweetCali. Please read through the numerous threads for a lot of tips. The best tip I can tell you is to be VERY discrete in what you post about your AI journey and about yourself personally on this board.

That's great, but if you want to talk about it/share your news, please start another thread or post in one of your prior threads and not hijack someone else's.

Welcome to GC! I'm going to echo the call for discretion. If you want to post details, I'd recommend using "code names" like many of the other posters on here. If you read through a few of their threads, you may get the idea of how that works

Good luck!

Welcome.

And yes, the distance would go into their consideration of you. Or it sure should.

I am digging up this old thread because I am back!

In the interest of total discretion, I haven't updated my story here or given many details. There wasn't much to tell--I only looked into one organization that I had a connection to. And this process involves a lot of down time with months (a year?) sometimes of little contact.

It's been a lengthy process, but I'm so PROUD to say that I've been invited to join the sisters of...

Actually, I think I'll go get something to eat first and come back to this...
