And I live in Canmore so I can't really have the luxury of living at home and commuting to work way out in Calgary (no jobs here). I think I'll have to bite the bullet and basically slum for a while and work a crap job since my parents want me out to start living my own life. I know it's just TV and advertising, but when you are bombarded with images of people my age living the high life in luxury condos and such, you can't help but feel a little anxious in the pit of your stomach. Anyways, reading this article and comments made me pretty depressed. ;_;
Whatever man, cheer up. Remember, what you see is TV and advertising. Sure, there are people relatively fresh out of university living the "great life" with a nice condo to their name and having after work martinis with co-workers in the posh strip of the city, but there are even more people like yourself, fresh out of school, working in a job that has nothing to do with their education, waiting for the right opportunity to come along.

You're educated and by being educated, have proved you have the patience and maturity to succeed. Show some patience. Nothing ever comes all at once.
