The Next Chapter After College

Most people work their whole lives to graduate college to pursue all sorts of different dreams. So what happens when you graduate? My mom and dad used to say that each part of your life is like a chapter in the book of your life. I never used to know what that meant until I graduated from high school and got to college. Each year at college had a new chapter of my life added on to the years of chapters before it. Now as graduation approaches in just three more days a chapter is about to end a new one approaches; Life after college.

For most people go to pursue their dream careers. Others go to Masters Programs or even Doctoral programs. No one truly knows what life has in store and what tomorrow will bring but what seems to be a common thread is that life is too short to not embrace everything life has to offer.

Life after college and getting a degree can bring on a new found sense of responsibilities and freedoms that one did not have while in college or in school in general. Some goals and dreams are shattered as the reality of their jobs and careers are not what they expected. But in that sadness comes a new sense of adventure into what can go on. Maybe you go back to school and find a new interest. maybe you apply for a new job or even travel to a new place with new people.

whatever happens life after college can bring a wave of emotions and new dreams and goals after your completion of college can be whatever you want them to be. For me I plan to live in the unknown and see where the journey of life takes me. All opportunities lay and wait to be discovered so go and grab them as fast as you can.

Goodluck to you all!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
