It's that season. :) Graduations are happening all over now. Congrats to all of those who have now passed on from college into the real world.
The graduation of my Alma matter was this past Saturday. I attended and was near sniveling the entire time. I knew a few people graduating so it was nice to see those people making the passage that I did last year.
Quite a few are asking the question of "What now?"
My answer: Try to find a job...
Seriously get your butts out there and do the leg work and apply to a gazillion jobs until you can find one. That's the best thing you can do for yourself right now.
have fun... :)

Slacking
Oh my have I been slacking...
Whew.
It's hard to have much of a life when I'm working 30 hours a week at one job and 14 hours at another.
I'm definitely overtired and stressed out.
I have had very little interest in the past couple weeks in trying to bolster peoples confidence about finding jobs and being successful. My attitude is "do it yourself." *sigh* just kidding.
Today has been fairly nice though. Since it's Good Friday a few professors didn't come in, some classes weren't held, and students went home. It's been pretty quite for the last couple of hours.
I really haven't had time or energy to come up with anything helpful. Researching things has been lost in a pile of papers, telephone calls, e-mails, etc.
So while I am feeling a lack of creativity and interest, I hope everyone else is doing well and staying positive.
With graduation coming around the corner it will only get scarier from here. bwahaha. *ahem*
Happy Easter everyone

4 Years of My Life
You always hear "It's the best years of your life, enjoy them."
And believe it or not, those who said it are correct. You have little responsibility beyond keeping your grades up in order to graduate and freedom (if you're living on campus) to do what you want and not have parents there to tell you no.
This is the first blog detailing the life of what a college graduate may experience following the end of those "best years."
Four years of my life were spent at an institution where it was instilled to learn, work hard, and do well. Do these things and you'll find success in life.
So far I have applied to over 30 jobs around the country and have had 1 interview.
This is just the beginning.
