I'm starting my last semester today and am trying to keep the terrified feelings at bay and just enjoy it, but they definitely creep back in from time to time. I'm headed off to the first day of my internship in 21 minutes... THIS IS SCARY!!! It really is hard to believe that I'll be walking across the stage again pretty soon when I just did it three years ago! It's like, really now? Am I supposed to be prepared for the real world now that I've taken BIO 115, Film & Literature and a hundred other courses? Oh well, we'll see. In any case-- enjoy your last year! I'm going to try my very hardest to enjoy my last few months.<br /><br />Cassie<br />www.wittytitlehere.comCassiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17888300113273137225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1721794057039685488.post-49187972572808197882010-08-24T10:23:40.924-07:002010-08-24T10:23:40.924-07:00I graduated with my Masters in May, after 19 years...I graduated with my Masters in May, after 19 years of consecutive school, and I was terrified. But I'm not living in my childhood bedroom, although I'll admit that a lot of my friends did when they graduated. It will all work out in the end, so even if you end up crashing with your parents for a while, you will figure it all out.

DON'T RUSH. Breathe. Enjoy.
...I totally agree. DON'T RUSH. Breathe. Enjoy. <br /><br />I wanted to be done school SO bad by the end, and now I'm wondering why I didn't breathe more and appreciate it for what it was. It sounds like you have that one up on me!<br /><br />I was terrified for the real world but wanted to be in it SO badly. I was terrified about finding a REAL job, and I got one.<br /><br />Everything falls into place like it's supposed to.<br /><br />My advise though: start looking early for a job, and don't just settle on a JOB because you think it's in your career, examine it, and ask yourself, "Is this what I'm looking for?" <br /><br />I took the first job I could get. I stopped looking...and I regret it. Yes I make decent money, yes I have flexible hours, but it's not enough, and not exactly what I wanted. <br /><br />So my advice to you that I wish I had: Relish, and be picky. This is the one time in your life that you have a little wiggle room. The idea of finding a job now and not having enough money for a car payment between new pay checks, and asking my parents for money again scares me into staying put. <br /><br />Enjoy your final year... every moment of it!!This includes the stress, the cramming, and the SLEEPING IN!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05303238831302061324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1721794057039685488.post-45097475253484927702010-08-23T23:55:48.411-07:002010-08-23T23:55:48.411-07:00You'll be fine - and nobody would think less o...You'll be fine - and nobody would think less of you if you had to go back home.<br /><br />I graduated from university almost four years ago, and I'm still not sure what I want to do... but it's okay!<br /><br />Enjoy the journey and let the destination take care of itself.<br /><br />Bless :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18413671907959074949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1721794057039685488.post-11375828524742079642010-08-23T22:45:38.859-07:002010-08-23T22:45:38.859-07:00Ahh good luck in your senior year!

I always wanted to do things but I would always say “Ugh I have all year to do it.” Finally senior year snuck up on me and then graduation snuck up on me even faster. Word to the wise.. start looking for jobs in like January!! The economy blows, and I know I watched tons of my classmates have tough times getting a job. I wouldn’t worry about the whole moving back into your parents house thing. It doesn’t make you a failure well at least to me you don’t look like a failure. About 80% of my graduating class moved back to home after. I wish I had too because then I wouldn’t have to pay rent and I would have sooo much more money then I have now. Cant wait to hear stories of your senior year!! Make it a good one!!Stephanie Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12175455615720392513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1721794057039685488.post-10882323563177599552010-08-23T08:51:19.661-07:002010-08-23T08:51:19.661-07:00Thank you for your comment on my blog!

We will have to compare notes on how we handle it.<br /><br />But I have a feeling we will survive. :) The Lord is good, and changes are always for our good. Even if we complain about how hard they are!
