It’s official. I’m graduating. Wow, that is one of the scariest thoughts that I’ve had in a very long time. All it means is loans, bills, and working that 9 to 5. Who knew when I was 5-years-old that being a “grown-up” would be so daunting? I thought it was a series of fun grown-up things like parties and going out to dinner with other people. WRONG!
I know that you do these things, but there is so much more to it than just fun. It’s more about hard work, paying taxes, paying mortgages, and hopefully having enough money to go out for a meal from time to time. Yet, with the economy the way it is today…the future looks a little bleak.
So, with about $35,000 of student loans to pay off and no job with a steady income. I look forward to see how dire things become before they get better. On that happy note, I think I will leave all you bloggers right now to search for pennies underneath the chair cushions.
