Hello World. Yes, the Real One.

Hey, Real World.  Your fly's open.

Made you look.  But the door of opportunity is definitely open.  With college graduation approaching at an almost rudely fast pace, it has become the moment every grad experiences: a breed of fear, excitement, hope, and bittersweet loss.  The last four years have been dedicated to an education no ACT or SAT could gauge for us.  And after that lifetime experience of a mere few years, we are thrown into a new learning curve, a new environment, a new chapter.

A new chapter in a bad economy.  A new chapter where our deepest friendships, although they will stand the test of time, are going to be stretched across state (and international) borders.  A chapter of uncertainty.

So, fellow people caught in the barrage of graduation stress, we have a lot to think about.  But the beauty of it is exactly what we're worrying about.  We have this new freedom; with a degree we have knowledge behind us, memories accrued.  There are no binding responsibilities, no boundaries.

It's the time for cliche...Chase that Dream, grad.
