Another ending, Another begining

In high school I always wrote a blog. That was so long ago blogging was considered new and I'm pretty sure it wasn't even called blogging yet. It's about time I start writing again.

I'm in my last semester of college. In a few short months I will be all on my own with very little direction. The only direction I have is to get a job, any job, just something to pay the bills. Like all milestones in your life this has a beginning and an end. The ending of my school career which basically represents my childhood and the beginning of my work career which represents adulthood. It is very scary. Yes, everyone goes through this, I am well aware of the common emotions one goes through however no one seems to have any strong words of wisdom to reassure me.

If no one can give me any help then I will be very happy to help myself. Here are some short term goals to give myself and this will provide some form of focus without overwhelming myself.

1. Go to Europe before you miss your opportunity.
2. Get a job, any job.
3. Do not worry about failing once you get this job. If the job make you unhappy stick around for a year to build your resume, then focus on what you want to do with your life.
4. Always remember first jobs usually suck... it won't be just yours.
