That happened to me too... Everyone that was older than me moved away, or dissappeared of the face fo the planet, so I had no clue what I was going to do. Not only that, but I spent the year applying to med school only to get put on wait lists that expired in Aug (could that be the definition of purgatory?).
Four Days before graduation I decided to not move home with my parents (Mom lives in WI) and stay in Clifornia in a friend's apartment. I found a crappy job, got an apartment of my own and started looking for a real job. I got one, and am living on my own. I stayed near campus because there were lots of people here that I knew, or could call up after not talking to for a year or so. In Milwaukee, there was no one but Mom and the dog.
My advice, pick a place to live that you will like being, get a cheap place to live, and stick your nose out there. If you have a career center go there for help with your resume and cover letters, start thinking about what you want to do. You can do whatever you want, how many people can say that??
