Graduation Anniversary

So, as of tomorrow it will have been two weeks since I graduated from the greatest school in the country, the University of Central Florida. Unfortunately, I was not able to secure a job in Central Florida before I graduated, so I had to move back home. I can't even begin to say how much I miss being there in Orlando.

I'm going to miss being on a campus that literally looks like a resort, but most of all I miss my friends. Since moving to Orlando three years ago, I kind of lost touch with everybody that I went to high school with that stayed back home. While this is unfortunate, social media is playing a huge part in my life now. It's hard to keep up with my friends from the O, but we are making due. Think of it as a weird long distance relationship with several people.

But what am I doing now? I'm applying for jobs, asking for internships, and setting up informational interviews. I'm trying to get volunteer hours in fields that I love, since the field I received my degree in is not one of those. I am blessed with the athletic opportunities that Southwest Florida offers, and I am sure that I will find my down that path soon.

Other than all of this, it's mainly been a huge Netflix, baseball game blur. I've crossed a lot of things off of my 101 in 1001 list, so be sure to keep an eye out for that post coming up soon.

Have any of you graduated recently? How are you coping with leaving your friends if that was something you had to do?
