Wait... there's life after college?

Well, it's official. The exams are done. The grades are in. I walked across the stage. I am a college graduate. And now I am being hit 72 times per minute with questions that I really don't know how to answer.

"So you graduated, are you applying to graduate school?" 
"Where are you going to work now that you have a degree?"
"Isn't it time your parents showed ya where the front door is?"
"You majored in what?! What the heck can you do with that?!"

It's not so much that I don't know how to answer these questions as much as I don't want to answer these questions. Eventually, yes, I am going to go to grad school. But not right now. Work? Well, for now, my substitute job at the good ol Montessori school is doing me right. My parents' front door? LOL. And for some reason when you say the words "exercise science" no one ever thinks you want to be a physical therapist, a cardiac rehab tech, or even a doctor. Everyone assumes I'm going to be an aerobics instructor. 

I don't know where the next year is going to take me but I know that it's going to be a year of new things, big adventures, life lessons, and hopefully lots of yummy drinks along the way. Join me as I document my journey through life after college.
