College is officially ALMOST over!

So its finally here. The feeling is bittersweet but has been culminating for nearly three years now. Jacky and I (and I speak for the both of us) are graduating! I say this with some sadness because it means, as cheesy as it sounds, that a new chapter in life must begin. Whenever you mention that you are "graduating", this next question is sure to be asked, "So what are you going to do after graduation?" I dread this question. It makes me uncomfortable to think of the future especially when I am unsure of it. To be truthful, it has been something that I have been avoiding for the longest time.

I can think of many things I would like to do but then it hits me...I am not actually prepared to do much of anything in the real world. Sure, college was educational. I learned a lot. But its knowledge that is useful in a game of trivia not knowledge that can help me in the "real world". So now I am faced with the dilemma of trying to find my place in an ever competitive market. I hope this revelation occurs soon or else this is going to be a long summer of thinking and thinking and thinking but not doing.
