This fall will be the first time in 19 years... |
|
that I have not started a new year of school. From 1987-2000, I was in elementary and high school. Then in 2000-2005, I had college to look forward to in the fall. Now, I have nothing. Just a job with no new beginnings.
I think I'm going to be depressed. :(

1. Don't look at it like that... |
|
think of it as an extended vacation (minus the sucky job). Maybe take some classes at night to get your learning "fix". I felt the way you do when I graduated from college, but I learned to enjoy different things. Saw some new places, met new people with the extra time I had on my hands. Chin up!

To be quite honest, I wouldn't mind being in school for the rest of my life. I'm a geek like that.
I hate my job. Nothing to look forward to. Just the same old crap day after day.

Studying for my GRE right now and can't wait to go back. My roommate and I always joked that the perfect life would involve being in school 'til the day we died.

10. I would love to have the "Van Wilder" lifestyle. |

That would make me happy.
