Typing on mobile, so there may be grammar errors.
I am a senior in college (university for international friends) and am supposed to graduate this Saturday (16 May). For the most part, I am doing alright. Honestly, I could care less about graduation in terms of the ceremony because I am not too fond of sitting for hours hearing people talk about how amazing us graduate are. However, not hanging out with family and friends is something that will be missed (we have flight credit, though, so that will make for a vacation). Class-wise, I finished all of my FAA certification stuff, so I can graduate and not have to come back to finish one class (unlike some of my peers). The rest of the classes were switched online, and they have been smooth (I have taken online classes before, so it was not too big of a change).
Life-wise, my job suspended operations (tourism-type job), so I am technically furloughed. I decided to leave my school’s city because I had no reason to be there, and the building I stayed in was shite (Internet, plumbing, and cell service; all exclusive to my room). I drove 15 hours back home to the biggest hotspot on the United States and just living at my permanent residence. Here, I have been doing school, yard work, and strength training.
My degree is in aviation (concentration in piloting), so getting a job will be rough, since the job market tanked (especially aviation). Current plans are to go to graduate school as a fallback and focus my knowledge if I cannot find a job. In the meantime, I have binged Sid Meier’s Civilization 3.
