It's a month until graduation, a month until the real world, and I still couldn't be less prepared. You know how throughout your college career, freshman and sophomore year sometimes in a students junior year, everyone says you have plenty of time to figure things out. "Don't worry, you can change majors, you have plenty of time to figure out what you want to do."
Well... you know when they don't say that? As a senior in college with one month left of school. No, as a senior in college with a month before graduation, usually it's more like, "You best get your shit figured out. You have a month and then the summer to find a job or back home you come."
Okay, perhaps those aren't exact quotes but still, I basically have 4 months to find a full time job and for some reason it has rapidly approached with no brakes on board. All throughout college, after I stayed for the summer in Columbia, I said I'm never moving back home, I'm out for good. Yet, it's looking like I'm moving back home. I've completely dropped the ball on the job search. I took the week off of school work for spring break. I figured if I had to work my entire spring break, I'm at least getting the week off from school even if I can't go on vacation. But, now, it's back to work, back to school (Billy Madison just popped in my head), and most importantly, back to full throttle on the job search.
STL and parent's house in august is not an option. Plus this 4am wake up call is really beginning to be a pain.
