It is what you make it. I loved my time in college, but I'm loving post graduate life as well. Just two different types of enjoyment.

eta: and congrats on graduating. That a huge accomplishment.

Oh ya man, I saw on another thread that you were graduating too.

The ceremony was weak sauce. I only went because of family + Arthur Blank being the Keynote speaker.

Blank's speech was kind of crappy though...lol

It's not, do this:

1. Find a job that you love doing.
2. Make a plan with timeframes on what you want to be doing for a job 5, 10, 20 years from now, act on it, review it, do it.
3. Don't marry a woman who takes more than an hour to get ready.
4. Remember, your kids and your employees are ALWAYS watching you.
5. Take Risks. (Note: Risks are not whimsical decisions to do stupid things like punch a cop.)

By far and away, your best post that I've ever seen. Probably not your best but damned if I ever see you do anything but flame on the rant side...

Just Graduated


Congrats man! It really isn't bad. I've done a lot since graduating, now I'm back in for second helpings at grad school and living the dream working in sports marketing. I will second CIYE's suggestion to find a job doing something that you enjoy (people that you work with are critical as well) and to set clear goals that you feel like you can work toward. There is a lot to be said for structure.
