I got paid today, but because my account was in the negative, almost half my paycheck got wiped out. I’m sitting in a cubicle at a job where I make practically nothing (and have practically nothing to do either). I’m not enrolled in my Spring semester because I am bored with college and thinking of transferring schools. I have a full closet and an empty wallet and I’m okay with that. My biggest worry at the moment is finding an outfit to wear this weekend when I go out. Every month I can pretty much be guaranteed I’ll have a pregnancy scare. But despite everything, I know any of my problems can be solved by a pitcher of Beer and Cosmic-Bowling.

It appears that everything goes downhill as soon as you graduate from college (or graduate school). Seeing as how I am still in school and graduation won’t be for any number of years; I am terrified. For as long as I can remember the only thing that mattered was going to school and getting a “good” job. It seemed simple enough. College = Guarantee of good job. But now it seems that a 4 year degree is just a glorified diploma.
And I’m thinking what is the point of even pursuing a degree (and a career) that I am interested in if my degree is practically nothing?
It seems like I have two choices: Do what I love and be broke, or do something I have absolutely no interest in but make a good living.
