Now that college is approaching faster and faster, I am getting more and more excited! Going off on my own and finding my way in life is something I have looked foreword to since I was little. I will get to live on my own, think for myself, and really understand what it is like to be an adult; however, with all the excitement comes fear.
I was watching the Today Show yesterday and they had a feature on graduates from college. 1 in 5 graduates now live at home, struggle with loans and debt, and are still trying to find a career. I knew the economy was bad and going into college I would have some expenses, but the reality really hit when I heard that story on the news. How will I keep myself from being 1 out of 5, and how will I make it through college without debt.
The reality it is, there is no way of knowing. So, instead of worrying and fearing what may happen, I am going to take things as they come: one step at a time, otherwise how will I enjoy the experience and soak up every minute of it!
