Well guys, it took 5 years (a little bit too much "fun" the 1st year) but I finally graduated from UC with my bachelors degree. I finished the last exam of my life this morning and it definitely feels good. It is very strange to have just work, and more free time afterwards. Lots of time at the farm this summer I just got back from a little celebrating at the bar, but I thought I'd share the good news before I hit the bed. On to the next chapter of life
Yup, you had your fun in school, now the tough part begins !!!! "Get a job that you love...and you will never have to work another day in your life"
Relish your younger years and try to keep that philosophy as you get older! Congrats to your hard work and determination young man. One tidbit of potential help would be to finish off with your Masters... It puts you one step in front of ALL the other Bachelor degrees and will likely give you the nod at most jobs! What was your major/minor?
Congratulations! I'm about to start my first year of college as well. I just graduated high school at the end of last month.
Thanks everyone... My major was Communications, mainly marketing and promotions as a focus. Don't get me wrong, I definitely know life gets nothing but harder from here on out. I have been saving for awhile and I'm in the process of looking at houses now. This is much more stressful than school ever was. I sure did pick a great time to graduate, with the economy doing so well and all... I am just thankful I have my old job still.
Congrats! The real world can be both good and bad. I certainly miss the days with little to no responsibility. Buy a house, and you will see your free time dwindle even more:D Good luck!
