25 Realizations College Kids Have In Quick Succession When They Realize College Is Almost Over
Mani Dasoju

Finishing college is a bittersweet moment for any college student when you finally have to give up the life where you feel carefree and independent and enter the real world, where a lot of students have no idea what to expect.

These are the thoughts that many college kids have when they finally graduate:

1. I have to actually get a real job

2. So I can't drink 24/7 anymore

3. Do I have to actually leave this place?

4. I'll be OK. I'll get my life together

5. Actually what the hell am I doing with my life

6. Waking up at 7 every day doesn't seem too bad... I hope

7. At least I would be making money

8. Just kidding. I could barely afford anything with the money I am making

9. Damn college was really the 4 best years of my life

10. Actually, college was the hardest 4 years of my life

11. Wow, I actually have to pay off those student loans now

12. Do I actually like my major? Should I change it?

13. I'm only 22. I have my whole life ahead of me

14. Holy shit. I'm 22. My life is already over

15. Sooo... What age can I retire?

16. Maybe I can marry rich?

17. I'm genuinely so confused with what I'm doing with my life

18. I should make a 5-Year Plan

19. Wow, I've accomplished nothing in college

20. Actually, my college career was not that bad

21. I found people here that I will be friends with forever

22. I wonder if I'll actually talk to half the people I talk to now

23. College was actually amazing. Life is going to be so boring now

24. I think everything will fall into place

25. Damn I'm really going to miss this place

No one has their life together after college. Make the most of what you have and you will continue to grow and eventually feel secure in everything after you graduate.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
