What You Need To Know
“What is going on here?” you might be asking yourself. “Where am I?” Both are perfectly valid questions, and both among the first to come to mind when I wake up each morning, irrespective of the answers.
There is something inherently vain about my generation that suggests we, in our infinite wisdom, have something compelling or important enough to say that other people should desire to read. I am apparently not immune to this character flaw – and clearly you’re not either. I was two years old when the Berlin Wall fell. What are you doing reading my blog?
I am your standard twenty-something writer who has just graduated from a small, private liberal arts college with a degree that is totally unrelated to writing. I imagine this will help me do something deep and world-changing, but have recently had illusions shattered that such a revolution might pay my rent. This blog will be a heartwarming account of the treacheries I overcome in order to achieve survival in the post-higher education world.
That is, of course, if I achieve survival.
Lamenting the fact that the life of a job-seeking early-twenty-something recent college graduate is, in fact, nowhere near as romantic as all those brochures promised me it would be, I have long since aspired – and will now indulge – to portray my life as “Entry Level Musical” until such time as I have found gainful employment.
So I can share this dream with others, this and similar posts will be tagged as such.
You’re welcome.
