Soon...

Nothing more excruciating than waiting for the end.

Bitter sweet thoughts of emancipation from deadlines and lecture schedules and the almost crippling fear of what next.
Even if you have been sure of what to do from day 1, its still not easy; navigating your career (or lack thereof) is almost as daunting as it is tricky.

This is not helped by the constant onslaught of emails and updates by jobsites who can somehow sniff your confusion like sharks smell blood and come for you. They appear to offer a helping hand but in reality they don't

Now you're already proper scared because all I've said so far is true right?
Did you forget about how some if not all housing contracts expire in June and then you're either too proud to move back home or too poor and undecided to move elsewhere. Suddenly (for some like me) you're regretting severing those family ties years ago when you first moved to Uni and felt untouchable. Now you have to go back tail between legs and beg for rent free accommodation.
You have no choice, remember you're still broke with the student loans no longer coming in.

Don't even get me started on families and their expectations for you. Oh and if you think you're confused now, wait till the morning after your graduation party when the rose-tinted glasses through which you viewed the world since your childhood come off.

You're an Adult now.

TO BE FOREWARNED IS TO BE FOREARMED.
