Perhaps I should graduate you to chief grasshopper. ;) Actually I still find myself learning these things... or being reminded of them. I wish someone had explained this to me earlier, though. I remember having few goals past graduation. I knew I wanted a degree in journalism. But then what? Of course I got married not before graduation and it changed my entire life scheme... dreams, goals, everything. Although I'm truly happy with the way things turned out and am a strong believer that everything happens for a reason, I still wish I had plotted myself a road map. In a way, I feel as though I missed out on a few things and will spend the next few years making it up. Then again, it gives me something to look forward to. Thank goodness my husband is supportive! PS... This post reminded me SO MUCH of you in your later college days when we worked at PDQ. I remember you always saving money for this or that and planning trips, etc. Way to go!
