Congrats! It’s scary, but this is when you finally have the freedom to live your unique life. Stay in touch with your close friends, everyone else will fade away. And remember, wear sunscreen.

When I graduated, I had no clue what I was going to do with my life. Still don’t. It’s been 15 years.
I’m not sure how I feel.
I had the same problem and spent 15 years in shitty customer service jobs before quitting and going to trade school.
It’s worked out really well.
School might be over, but your education never stops.
When I graduated highschool, we didn’t have the resources we have today. You can freely learn a language anytime you want. Find out interesting maths they didn’t teach you in school, details about the world you live in you might not know (architecture, history, of just why things are one way in one nation vs another).
There are so many fantastic YouTube channels. Here’s a list of channel I’ve subscribed to that I think are with it. There a few programming ones in there too. And this doesn’t even cover the channels that showed me how to repair my AC unit, or how to repair my washing machine.
If this lost is to long, than 3 channels I recommend highest is Tom Scott, SmarterEveryDay, and Steve Mould.

Crash Course too!

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBDA2E52FB1EF80C9 - Crash Course World History was one of my favourites.
I’ll add ‘Connections’ an old BBC series covering the history of technology. The creator shows how one change in one place can affect the world. For instance, Napoleon’s armies needed to be fed on the march and eventually we got modern food processing.
We called it senioritis. That sudden change of excitement to dread as seniors realize they are going to be separated from the peer group they’re mostly been with for years at their local school and now have to go out and make something of themselves on a new, unfamiliar environment.
“Senioritis” usually describes people who have checked out because they have a short amount of time left and have already received college admissions, so their grades don’t matter much.
That’s never been what serioritis is …lol Are you from the South? Tell me more about the war of “Northern aggression” 😂
I hate southerners and am from a proud Union state. What the hell are you talking about?
He’s joking bc senioritis usually refers to when people lose the will to work as hard (usually because they’ve already been accepted by either a job or a college). I assume the other part was about how southerners pussyfoot around the civil war instead of calling it what it is. I really don’t know where the vitriol came from tho.
Worst part is is still dream about it. Hate it so much. When will this ghost leave!?
“oh fuck theres that class ive been avoiding all semester and totally forgot about and now I need to turn in my paper and take my final but I can’t find my car!”
The fact that this is universal trauma truly shows how unnatural we approach education. We need a better way.
Right, I graduated college 10 years ago, oh god its been 10 years
traumatizing people as kids to be productive members of the capitalist system
now go make money!!!
