Just a couple of short months ago I graduated from college (university, for you non-American English speakers out there).
Since, I have traveled the country and come full circle back to the place where I started: Atlanta, Georgia.
Now, I am just like most other recent college graduates: broke, and struggling to find a job ... or at least a job that says, hey! I can totally see why I got a degree to do this.
Unfortunately, like a lot of other recent grads out there, my degree probably has about the same marketability as a bachelor's in philosophy. I graduated with a degree in Applied Linguistics. Half of you are probably about to google "what the hell is applied linguistics," while the rest of you are exclaiming, "Why don't you go teach English?!?!" To which I reply, "Shhh...all in good time."
So? What the hell now?
This blog will be used to chronicle my days of post-graduation boredom, shenanigans, and job-seeking. In this day and age when, for the first time, my generation has dim hopes for the future ... why not blog about it?!
Stay tuned for more updates, and share your post-graduation experiences by emailing me at hello.ello.blogs@gmail.com!
Also, participate in the poll up top~! The prompt is, "Now you've graduated. How hopeful is the future?" I'll obsess over its results until I find a way to make them useful.
