I cannot believe my life as a student will be ending so soon. At first I could NOT wait to get through everything to become an adult and leave school forever! But now looking ahead, graduating and starting a job feels daunting and overwhelming. These past few months especially have been filled with anxiety of not knowing what will happen after graduation. I am thankful that I was able to attend job fairs and to get my resume out to employers in order to have a job lined up after graduation, but the time, effort and worst of all–socialization–was worth it. Being an introvert, talking, specifically about my abilities and knowledge of what I can bring to a company was one of the most difficult parts of the interview process.
Although I cannot be any happier and so thankful knowing that I finally have a plan after graduation, there are s few things that I’ll miss about college:
- Creating my own schedule- Making the perfect class schedule was always a true highlight when it worked out.
- Amazon Prime for Students– having FREE two-day shipping for pretty much everything at a discounted price was amazing! All I needed was a school email to sign up. I will admit to forgetting to order books and study guides until the last minute…but Prime shipping definitely helped!!
- Late mornings- Knowing that I will not be able to stay up late binge watching shows while study is bittersweet. Sometimes the binge watch was due to all the shows available with the Amazon Prime for Students…
- Free events on campus- Free events for homecoming week, and just random free things like tee shirts, reusable bags and bottles will also me missed!
