Congratulations! You’ve made it through 4 years of college and you’ve managed to survive. Some of you may feel sad and worried about what comes next, while others are probably excited and ready to move on. Nonetheless, you will forever remember the experiences and people you met over the past years…the good and the bad, and whether you’ve realized it yet or not; you are about to enter the real world. That’s right, the real world. Here are 20 other realizations all recent graduates can relate to.
Unless, of course, you’re going to grad school – you lucky ones get to milk the “student” title a little while longer.
Because you no longer live super close. At least not 1 dorm building away close.
You’re actually going to have real people obligations now.
Because skipping work is not like skipping class.
Because everyone just harps on what your life plans are.
You thought you had a lot of responsibilities in college; yeah right.
…in pajamas.
But you know it’s time to move on to bigger and better things.
Oh…and student loans.
Which means you qualify for jobs you’re actually interested in…and can help pay off those student loans.
Remember when you had three classes a day, each separated by a couple hours spent lounging in the dorm or eating lunch on the green? Full-time jobs aren’t like that. It’s going to feel like a never-ending day.
And prioritizing correctly.
That’s right, you are a working adult now.
Crazy, I know.
At least until you’ve figured out your next set of plans.
You can’t really get away with leaving dirty laundry and dishes around for weeks on end anymore.
This means you still have time to get your life in order…BUT you probably shouldn’t use this excuse a year or two from now!
