I'm a college graduate.
Weird, eh? I guess it’s more significant than is registering with me, and it will be weird to not be at Washburn most of the time anymore. I only cried when Bearman hugged me coming out of the tunnel of faculty and said “Congratulations, Jess.” That one pretty much did it for me. Sad times. But mostly, I’m just super glad to be done and get moving on with the rest of my life. I’ve got some good plans and big dreams.
Also, I started my internship the other day and it is awesome. Completely. I love it. I could work in museums for my whole life, judging from the first day. However, I’m somewhat concerned that at some age you outgrow being a hipster and have to work in a classical art museum instead of a contemporary one. No fun.
