I'm done with college! What should I do first? Dance around my room? Play outside in the rain? Burn my heaps and heaps of flashcards because the English language has a long and complicated history that I now have memorized? (Although here's a brief summary of the English language: first, the Celtics were invaded by Germanic and Romanic tribes. Then they were invaded by the Vikings, after which they were invaded by the Normans. Thus, the English language came about through a series of shoddy defense tactics).
But secretly, I love(d) school. Tell me, how's the real world?

The "real world" is scary and intimidating but you are a smart and creative girl, and I am sure you will face all of the challenges with grace and a smile. Do not be worried at all about jobs/apartments/etc... just work hard and keep your eyes on the prize :)
The real world totally freaked me out as I was graduating college... But in my opinion, it totally rocks and you have nothing to be scared about! Getting started in a new job and potentially a new place is the hardest at the beginning, but it's also kind of fun :) Good luck!
Woop Woop! And now you're free to dance on over and learn all about honey! We can make flashcards x
Congrats for finishing!!! At first it doesn't feel real, then a few months down the road you realize summer "break" is over and you're not back in school. Then it's a scary realization that you officially are in charge of your every day accomplishments and you don't have to move forward in life, but maybe you should. Ha.
The real world- bills, work, waking up to go to work, lots of coffee, 2 day weekends, no summer breaks.. wow sounds amazing, I know. It'll be amazing. Make life what you want out of it and it'll be more than rewarding.

ps. burn the flash cards.
Congratulations!!!
Congratulations on finishing college! I think you should all the things you've just listed, especially the flashcard burning and the celebratory dance afterwards!
At any rate, the real world, I find, can be likened to a roller coaster. It's up and then it's down, unpredictable at times, shaky in others, with moments in between when everything feels like it's upside down. But then, it's that great ride, with that rush and feeling of adrenaline that's entirely real and wonderful. So buckle up your seatbelt!
Cheers.
