blue


I didn't think finishing my undergraduate degree would feel like such an anti-climax. After all the drama of getting to the end, putting on the graduate exhibition and also starting a brand new job in a field that actually relates to my study (gasp), I wasn't expecting to experience some post-school blues. Yet the exciting new job and the summer ahead doesn't ever feel like you expect it to feel. This is probably why people like to be busy.

  2. yeah, I know the feeling :) I had a total anti-climax moment when I finished my phd. It's strange, you look forward to that moment of finishing something, but when it's suddenly gone, you sort of miss it.

  3. Well for a lot of people working life is not as exciting as student life. So this might be your new challenge, and a long life one, to now make your life exciting and be passionate about all the things that you can do, and not getting stuck in a routine.
    In fact you could say that everything is really starting now.
