Hey hey hey, welcome back to the Allison in Wonderland blog! It’s officially been 6 months since I graduated from James Madison University so, for today’s post, I wanted to give you an update on my post-college graduation life. Let’s get into it!
Starting off with how I feel in general, I’m thankful to say I feel incredible! I’m so, so, so happy to not be in school anymore. Although I miss seeing all my friends everyday, I don’t miss the classes or the extracurriculars at all. Towards the end of my time at JMU, I was feeling very stressed because I was constantly doing a million things at once. Now, although I’m still very busy, my free time is more filled with things I want to be doing instead of studying and attending mandatory meetings. I also really like to have a routine and with working full-time, my life lends itself well to having a routine and sticking to it.
Moving onto how I’m liking where I’m living… I love it! My favorite thing about living in my apartment and not in my college apartments/townhouses is I don’t have to worry about moving out a few months after I moved in. I have the option to move if I want to but it’s not a constant rotation of moving my home base every few months. I also am still living in a college town, so it’s nice to continue to have people around me that are my age.
Lastly, I’ll talk about how I like working full-time. Overall, I really, really like it! I definitely think I picked correctly when I chose the marketing and advertising industry and I’m so grateful for that. It’s so important to enjoy what you do for a living because you spend everyday doing it. The past six months have flown by and I can’t believe I’m already halfway through my first year at my first job! Have any of you just begun your first job? Let me know in the comments below.
That’s about all for this Tuesday’s post! This week, I’m working on another one of my apartment room reveals so get excited! Have you read my Living Room Reveal and my Bedroom Reveal? Click here and here to get caught up on those before the new one comes out in a few weeks. As always, thanks for reading and have a great week!
