Graduate Blues


I didn't really know what to call this post so I just went with graduate blues because it's kind of the topic I want to talk about today. Being a graduate.

I feel like I'm not living the graduate life to the full potential. You always here the graduate success stories of people who go onto high paying jobs which are related to their degree and have an amazing life. Then there's the rest of us. Who have no idea what we're doing with our lives.

I'm currently working in a part time job which does pay well and I'm saving a lot money by living at home with my mum which is great. However, I feel like I'm not actually using my degree for anything at the moment because my job has nothing to do with my degree. It kind of makes me wish I made more use out of my university's career guidance.

I did have plans to hopefully get a job this year involving my degree and move out. However, that seems less and less likely. I've grown to learn there's nothing wrong with living at home still. I'm happy being at home and I know I'm not ready to move out yet.

I'm thinking next year will be the year I do move out and get a job involving my degree. I think I'll start making plans in the Autumn/Winter time. We'll see what happens.

At the moment I'm kind of treating this year like the gap year I never had before university. I'm grateful that I do have a job and am able to earn money. At least it's something to add to my CV at the end of the day.

So yeah, I do have some graduate blues but overall I am happy with life at the moment and I'm just taking each day as it comes. Who knows what the future will hold.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed my thoughts about life as a graduate.

I'll be back tomorrow with another post for you.

See you then.
