On This Day, We Become Legendary
Today was another milestone in the quest for graduation. My final meeting with my academic counselor.
These should be terrifying times. I can’t wait! I love this place and would never think to wish my time away, but the prospect of the real world sounds way more fulfilling than the academic bubble. No more quizzes. Assignments. Papers to write. It’s the real thing, no more practice rounds. I’ve been dying for the chance (and frankly, the time) to apply my knowledge to something “real.” We got a taste of it last semester with all my projects, and I get morsels of it at work, but I’m ready to do a face-first swan dive into this web development stuff.
So that’s it. Left on my plate are the final responsibilities for me between now and May 10th:
- Make the grades — D for Diploma Kidding, mom :D Fun fact, Johnny could rock a 2.5 this semester and still graduate cum laude. Awful tempting…
- Savor every last drop of the Auburn Experience There’s still so much of it I haven’t seen, or even heard of. In two months, the dream expires. Enjoy it.
- Find a job. I’m still on the hunt. Not too late to put your name in the hat…
It has absolutely FLOWN by. And it’s only going quicker by the day.
What say you?
