I've finished University!

I can’t believe it. I’ve finished university. Words that I’ve been dreading for a long time. 

The last few years of my life have flown by; I’ve been at Uni concentrating and working desperately hard to earn my degree. Being a student is an odd lifestyle, and definitely a big contrast from living at home. Suddenly, no one is telling you where to be, to tell you be tidy, to do this, to do that but also no one to cook for you or do your washing. But having independence is something that has taught me many lessons and a lot about life. 

Going to University was never really fully planned it just happened; I know it was what I needed to become independent and was the perfect opportunity to study the subject I am so passionate about. However, the thought always was there, “What on earth am I going to do after uni?”

The questions began demanding answers and although I wanted to make decisions about post uni, but, to me, it made sense to concentrate on actually getting the degree first. So that’s what I did and without a plan I worked as hard as I could so I knew that I would feel I got what I deserved. 

 Since completing my degree I have spent two weeks in America, this included a couple of visits to the iconic New York City. It was the perfect break after numerous exams and the stress of completing my dissertation. 

But now, BOOM, suddenly it’s July! I still have no idea what I’m really doing. For now, I feel okay about this but I can feel the impatience growing. It’s a weird time finishing uni, they have been an amazing but very stressful three years of my life and now I’m ready for the next challenge… whatever that might be.

Have you recently finished university? What are you doing now? Let me know in the comments or tweet me @_bowsandbuttons.
