I'm going to attempt to get back to the original point of this post, life after university.
I am going to finish my undergrad at Christmas, and personally, I could not be any more excited for post-university life. I can't wait for freedom from the structure and schedule of university. Don't get me wrong, I've had a great university experience, partied hard and learned a lot... but I am really looking forward to what life is going to offer me once I am finished.
I am in no rush to start a career or settle down. In fact, the "American dream" is more like a nightmare to me. Too boring. I want to travel, and just experience what life has to offer when I am not confined to any particular structure.
I'll probably go back to university eventually, because my ideal job does require a masters, but I am not feeling any pressure to do it right away. I kind of figure that I'll know when I am ready to go back to school and do it.
Anyways, I don't think post-university life should be scary, people should embrace the unknown and all of the possibilities that come with it.
