University of Illinois (I won’t tell you which one out of the three campuses) why though?
I’m from Illinois too so was curious. That is a good school tho
I just turned in my final thesis paper for my masters accounting capstone class and I’m finally done with college forever.
I am sad that I’m leaving the town I spend almost 8 years in I am also so depressed knowing that I spend 8 years living alone and now I’m going back to live with my parents
My parents are open to me going anywhere I want but it’s easier said than done. I also know so many friends that have their masters and still struggling to find a job or working making $18 an hr.
School is really a trap fam. I know like 5 dudes with a full college education still living with their parents cause they still can’t afford to live alone.
On top of all this I met this gorgeous girl who is moving to Houston, while I’ll be stuck in Illinois in this cold ass weather searching for jobs and s*** i haven’t been this depressed in a while man
Motivation. There’s a way out.

I grew up in Canada and saint Louis, and moved to Chicagoland 5 years ago but never really made friends out here because I was always away in college. Now I’m 26 so obviously it will be impossible to make friends since I’m movin with my parents. But I’m really trynna move else where soon bro

How did you like Canada & St Louis in comparison? I’ve been in IL my whole life
If ur qualified and having a rly hard time finding a job chances are u need to look outside of ur area
Got your whole life ahead of you breathe, relax and think, you’re in a better position than most your age
This big facts

Saint Louis was a s*** show bro. Very uncultured and very white. But Chicago suburbia is somewhat more like the suburbs of Toronto but like I said I have no friends here so it’s extremely depressing. Nothing beats Toronto man. The one thing I do love America in general compared to Toronto is that it’s not crowded and Chicago is way cheaper than Toronto. Also way more opportunities out here than in Canada
Congrats on finishing college and getting your degree. I think many people don't use their time in college that well. In college you supposed be learning ofc, but it's also an opportunity to build connections w people in the field you'll be working in. Through connections you can increase your chance of getting a job quickly.
But yea, I do agree that college doesn't work for many people.

Low key you spoke all fax i was so busy having fun and focusing solely on papers and exams that I Never took the opportunity to do internships or build networking connections

I mean I have a degree but apparently just having a degree (two in my case) doesn’t make you qualified smh

F*** no. I’m not about to learn anything new or “practice” anything new after spending all these years in college and attaining two different degree. I’m straight looking for a job that pays me well. I’m not doing any course work, taking extra classes or so forth unless I have a job that’s paying for it and I’m required to take it

Lol nigga you the one complaining about not getting a job. Doesn’t sound like that’s going to happen.
Should have not fell for the masters meme

Many people are deceived like that yea. College throws so many papers and exams n s*** at people that you barely get the chance to figure out wtf you're even doing. It was similar for me until a teacher actually approached me and told me she thought I'd be suited for an internship at a certain company. That's when it clicked for me.
Don't overthink it all too much though. You've got your degree. College is a good place to build connections but it's not like you'll never make any again for the rest of your life now.
Post-grad life isn’t for the weak. It’s hard dawg.
This is why everyone stays around for a “masters” which ends up being 80% the same as the undergrad degree content.

lol facts. I was (still kinda am) considering going back to school for a graduate degree only to escape the post-grad life.
This s*** depressing foreal and I don’t blame people for wanting going back to school. Tens of thousands of dollars in debt and no little to no jobs that would allow us to pay it back without starving. The system broken.
