After three and a half years of working extremely hard, I am finally going to be graduating in May of this year. Although I am graduating on time (which is something that not many of my friends can say that they are going to do), it still seems like I have been in college for a really long time. Four years has been a big investment of my time, and although I have had a great time, I am definitely at the point where I am ready to move on to the next step in my life.

I feel really fortunate that I already know exactly what I am going to do after graduating. While some of my friends are still worried that they aren’t going to be able to put their degrees to good use, I have already been offered and accepted a job in Dallas. Dallas is a city that I really like (I actually visited it again in a rental car just over a month ago), so when I was offered a job there, I was definitely happy to accept it.
