Graduation
Although I have not received my official diploma yet (it takes 12 weeks to process), I successfully walked across the stage, shook the Chancellor's hand, and finally ended my journey through college with a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering. I'm already feeling better and more upbeat, even if I'm still physically exhausted from the last couple weeks of school work.
Work
I do not have a job yet. Ironically, I helped Ray get my old job working there. He will be the third generation AIESECer to work as an IT help desk assistant at the School of Nursing. This is just another simple demonstration of the value of the AIESEC network. Luckily, Suzanne, my boss, was nice enough to ask the staff if anyone needed temporary help this summer. One did and now I have a job, for at least a month or so doing web/database programming.
Play
I am realistically believing that I will be able to start a full-time job by the beginning of September. To maximize my enjoyment in the mean-time, I initiated a 16-week volleyball team that will play at KEVA. I believe Molly is the only other person on the team that's also a nomad. All of the intermediate league spots were full, but the team really wanted to play. So we made the jump to the power league, where ex-college players can show-off their skills. Unfortunately, none of us are ex-college players. This will be an interesting season.
