You graduate from college.
 |
| Goodbye friends! Goodbye life I've known for the past 4 years! |
You're ready to take on the world.
 |
| Yoshi! Ikuzo! |
Time to get that dream job.
 |
| Ooh! Me! Pick me! |
But it turns out....you don't have enough experience.
 |
| ... |
Well, maybe that dream house/apartment?
 |
| Ah, piece of cake, right? |
Oh wait. You can't do that without a job.
 |
| So close... |
Well. Next best option. It's better than living by the river on government cheese.
 |
| It's dark and a little damp, but hey, it's home! |
Don't forget to learn to cook!
 |
| Potatoes. Pancakes. STARCH. |
It may take a while....
 |
| Wut happened to my cake. |
So don't forget to treat yourself out once in a while!
 |
| omigosh, food tastes good. It. Tastes. |
You learn that making bentos is a lot of fun. (And way cheaper!)
 |
| Here you go, dear husband. |
Also, cleaning is a thing.
 |
| Honey? I think the sink overflowed again...and the toilet.....and the tub. |
So are bugs.
 |
| Bedbugs...ants.....fleas....... |
Time to take public transportation to work!
 |
| AAAAHH! I need to catch the next bus!!! |
Two part time jobs? Bring it on!
 |
| Good afternoon. How may I be of assistance? |
Gasp! An interview??
 |
| Please oh please oh please oh please |
But someone else had more experience. And another degree.
 |
| Seriously? |
There's also an opening for a shweet apartment that's more affordable. But you can't break your current lease for another 4 months.
 |
| Whyyyyyyy. |
Sometimes, it's just hard.
You cry more that you thought you would.
 |
| A lot more. |
And get way more angry than you thought you would.
 |
| Why are all the things so dumb??? |
But somehow, there's always Someone, somewhere, to cheer you up.
To calm you down.
Just to be there for you.
Things really aren't so bad.
 |
| Emotions... |
Well ok. They're still annoying.
 |
| Oh yeah. The student loan grace period expires. |
But if you remember to look Up...
...life really is beautiful.
So don't worry.
There really are people cheering for you.
 |
| Saints, anyone? |
Don't be afraid to live that imperfectly perfect happy ending.
"Our life is not a pointless wandering. We have a sure goal: the house of the Father."
