Anyone else graduating this semester??

sigirl · #1 03-16-2004, 04:54 PM

I am, and let me tell you... i'm starting to freak out **EEEKKKK**

i don't want to join the real world, not yet at least!!

But seriously, what's everyone else doing?? moving back home or jumping right in??

I haven't decided yet. I'm trying to save enough $$ so i can go backpacking through south america.

I am.
I'm definitely moving back home to Chicago. My last summer of fun and living w/the rents (read: for free).
I DESPERATELY need an advertising or PR internship- that is where the source of panic is. I'm excited and ready for that "real world" thing most of you talk about; I don't think it's a reason to freak out or stop having fun. But I do know that if I don't intern somewhere I'll be living with Mom and Dad for the rest of my life.

I graduate with a BA in Political Science on May 15, 2004.

I don't have a job lined up yet.

i started freaking out when i realized graduation means growing up...i have like 58 days left of youth

::joins the others in freaking out::

I'm graduating in May with a BS in Marine Biology and Biology.

I haven't even started looking for a job yet, because I thought I wanted to go to Law School.

Now I don't. I had a (almost) quater life crisis.

So I'm applying for a doctoral program instead. If it falls through, I have no idea what I'm going to do...I suppose teach high school (I was offered a job because I was a perm sub last year, and another teacher is retiring this year- the science dept is desperate).

Regardless, it seems I will be living at home to save on $$ until I figure out what the hell is going on with my life.

I only have 2 months of youth and fun left...WHERE DID THE TIME GO???!!!!

I have to join the club

Will be joining the real world on May 8
I had an interview this morning, that's why I am in Boston. Will have another one tomorrow morning, but both firms said that they are not hiring right now. Things might change.

Will have a *super* promising interview in Chicago in two weeks, too bad I don't want to work for them. Another *promising* one in Atlanta in the same week, so need to fly down there.
Then need to arrange a travel plan for another interview in Pasadena.
Arghh ... hate my 'real world' already. Could I just stay in school?

ME ME ME ME!!!!!!

I have no idea if I'm going to find a job or if I even want to stick around Ohio ( I was offered a job in North Carolina but I don't know if I want to go or not ).

So add me to that list.....I'm counting down! 6 weeks till GRADUATION!!!

sigirl · #9 03-18-2004, 10:33 PM

yeah, i'm graduating w/ a BA in international relations/ latin american politics...

what the hell am i going to do with that?

i went to this job fair my school had today, biggest waste of time ever...

all i know is that i owe LOTS OF MONEY to lots of people, so i don't have the option of not getting a good job.

maybe i'll move to italy and marry one of those really wealthy, good looking, italian businessmen...

I'm graduating with my Master's degree! Yiiiippppeeee! I can't believe my two years of hell is almost over! I do not recommend graduate school with young three children! I have no idea what I'll do now! I am definately taking the summer off, and then I'll figure it out!

ADPiSAI · #13 03-23-2004, 09:48 AM

I'm *finally* graduating this semester!! My last exam is April 14

The grad ceremony isn't until May 29

Leave it to my school to not make any sense at all...

I'm moving back home. I can't afford to do anything else.

I've already been hired as a substitute teacher in the K-8 district in my town. I've applied to the high school district as well... We'll see. I'm hoping to find some sort of steady teaching job, but right now I'm just thankful that I have something!

Xylochick216 · #14 03-23-2004, 11:27 AM

I'm graduating on May 22, in just under 2 months!

I have a few job prospects, but I'm waiting for jobs at my school to open up. As much as I want to do something with my degree (broadcast communications and classical studies), I really just want to work in our admissions office. Mom's not too happy about that one....

Sistermadly · #15 03-23-2004, 12:18 PM

*raises hand* May 27, here.

And I'm freaking out too. There are NO JOBS in this area, so if I have to relocate, it'll mean living separately from MisterMadly for awhile.

It would also mean giving up the chapter adviser position that I've just accepted, which would totally suck rocks.
