Your
parents will probably want to pay hundreds of dollars to get it framed just the
way you want it. And be grateful! Place it somewhere you can see it, or even
better, place it where everyone can see it. Sneak it into conversation such as,
“Oh wow, that’s so interesting. Did you notice my diploma?” Nothing should keep
you from your glory.
2. Clean your room
That’s
right. I ain’t yo mama, but seriously get to it! Throw away all those cheap and
out of style Forever 21 clothes, the Hollister shirts hidden in your bottom
drawer, and especially those loose papers from your High School classes. It’s
time to make your room your own. That picture of you dressed up as a goose in
your school’s musical didn’t get your best side anyway.
3. Get a job (duh)
It’s
all about the Benjamins. Now is the time to apply like you have never applied
before. Apply to places you’ve never been, apply over the phone, apply in
person. Don’t be picky and remember to be patient with yourself. As soon as you
have income, you can enjoy that fancy Starbucks drink you like every day and
not feel guilty for spending so much money.
4. Rest
Between
applications and phone calls regarding your future, take time to smell the
roses (literally). You really do have the time to do whatever you want to. Wake
up to the sunlight in your room instead of your alarm clock. Read scripture at
a leisurely pace. Paint your nails, and then repaint them. The time is yours
baby!
