It's All Over But the Crying

I got my degree. That's a weird thing to say. It's a goal I've had for as long as I can remember: go to college and get a degree. And now it's done.

I can't think of anything else I've worked this hard for.

And it's just over.

I don't feel sad that I'm done with college, I just can't believe it. This is what I've been planning for for the last, what, 10 years, and now it's here! It's insane. It's easy to talk about my next move, but it's completely another to actually do it. I'm not really sure what my next big goal is, other than getting a job, because this was the biggest thing I think I've ever done in my life.

So the job hunt continues. I know now's not the time to be picky, but I really don't want to hate my job. So my current criteria:

• I'll be good at it
• I won't hate it
• I won't have to be a salesperson
• It's in one of my two desired locations
• Preferably in the communications industry

I don't think that's too much to ask for.

Even though I'm not sold on essentially brainwashing all high school students into believing college is the only way to go, I'm proud of myself. I worked hard for my degree, and despite everything I'm feeling about my career choices right now, I'm glad to have it.

But let's be real, I'm even more glad to be done.

So here's hoping I get a call or an email soon saying, "WE WANT YOU!" Or even just, "Eh, we'll give you a shot." Because that's all I'm asking for!

Til then...
