Today is the first day of the rest of my life.
No, Seriously.
Today, I graduated from college. I have a Bachelor's degree. According to optimists, it is my license to rule the world...or something like that.
Truth is....
The truth is that I am not ready.
I'm not ready to not have classes to go to, exams to study for, papers to write or projects to worry about.
I'm not ready for the reality.
I'm not ready to not need to enroll in classes in the fall or to not have to double-check with advisers to make sure I'm taking the courses I need in order to earn my degree.
I don't want to fill my days with mindless social engagements, fruitless job searches and endless feelings of uselessness.
What do I do now?
I've spent much of my life avoiding the inevitable. Tight-rope walking the line between the present and the possible. Wondering if I'm ready to be on my own in that vast expanse of darkness titled: The Real World.
So...Now what?
