As a new fully grown adult, 18 years and 12 days old, I've got a lot on my plate. Like the seniors around me we're all feeling like, well, seniors. I've been half expecting for a member of the IRS to come and deliver me a mortage and I swear to God I have at least 6 grey hairs. One of the more immnent problems is the UNIVERSITY DECISION DUN DUN DUNNN. I mean it's no big deal, except wherever you apply decides your fate in life, ie. career, marriage, happiness, life expectancy... Yup. In all seriousness, I'm trying to be rational, but it's hard when every teenager with the same crisis is crammed into the same building 9-3 daily, bouncing our anxieties of each other. Often, the choice is between the benefits of staying home versus the adventure of going away. When it comes down to it, and undergradute degree doesnt vary very much so it's all about location location location. Other factors I've been looking into includes the gym facilities, the bar scene, whether or not sweatpants are considered cool, and if the residences require me to shower infornt of everystudent and prof I'll ever encounter. If I had any good advice on this topic I'd be taking it myself, sorry. However I will wish every one of my fellow grads the best of luck in their university or college or strip club of choice!
“For what it’s worth … it’s never too late, or in my case too early, to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit. Start whenever you want. You can change or stay the same. There are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people who have a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start all over again.” - Eric Roth - Screenplay of the Curious Case Of Benjamin Button
