Post-grad life? More like...most-sad life.
Don't worry that was a joke, and one that literally came to me as I was typing. Sorry about that. I'll try to refrain myself from more jokes like that as we progress.
Actually, if I think of anything else that strikingly brilliant I'll probably need to write it down.
Do people blog anymore? Is that a thing people still do? Does anyone look at their blog subscriptions on bloglovin.com anymore? Maybe I just assume that nobody else looks at blogs because I stopped looking at blogs. Maybe if I start looking at blogs again the rest of the world will, too? Who knows.
If anyone is out there, let me know.
So, life-update. I graduated from university in May.
I got cuter pictures, too, no worries there. I just like this one better.
Nobody really prepared me for what graduation was going to feel like, or what it would be like to pack up my dorm room for good. Nobody really tried to prep me for what it would be like to hug your best friends and not know when you'd ever be able to do that again.
I'll tell you, it straight up sucked. And hey, now you can't say no one ever warned you.
Honestly though, I know it's pretty cool that I had such a hard time leaving. Because that means I had a really great experience. You know, that cute Winnie the Pooh quote about being so lucky to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard, or something like that. These past four years were absolutely amazing, and that last day it just hit me all at once that it was all over.
I'm still recovering from my post-grad existential crisis, can you tell?
This summer, I'm traveling with my parents and brother around the States on furlough (that's when missionaries came back to there sending country and give ministry reports and such, in case you don't know). I'm looking for jobs and stuff. I am hoping to stay in Southern California for a while.
I realized that if I were filling out paperwork or something, I'd have to tick the "unemployed" box instead of the "student" box.
I don't like that thought, so I'm going to avoid paperwork.
love,
me
side-note: this has been the most all over the place blog post ever because I was just writing whatever came to my head with no plan in mind

*Insert cliche comment* Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened *etc, etc* The next stage will be even better...it's the inbetween that's hard! Love you!
ReplyDeleteChange is always hard. Traveling sounds fun though a good way to combat all the sad feelings.
ReplyDeletewe are still out here, dont you worry. but girl I feel you. I just graduated too and its been weird. although, Im going back for my Masters at the same school so its a whole different kind of wave of emotion. but its still a lot so Im right there with you
ReplyDeleteI just started blogging again, haha. I feel weird after graduating and becoming a mother, so don't worry. You're not alone. I haven't looked at many blogs since I started college, so it's been awhile. Congratulations on graduating! Enjoy the "in between" :)
