I did everything I was supposed to. I studied hard in high school and went to university and graduated with a bachelor's of science. I have a gf and my parents are proud of me for my academic achievements. But I didn't go to graduate school. I can't find a job. I'm going to be stuck in debt because what I did is only what what got you ahead 25 years ago, and what our generation that has kids says will put their kids in the same behind situation I'm in: destitution, anxiety, and despair. Getting ahead is always a race and I wasn't unlucky, just normal. Unblessed with parents of normal foresight, normal judgement. My graduation party is tomorrow, and I don't wanna do it. I wish my life's destitution was already simpler and I had dropped out. I'd have more excuses to just jump ship, but I also know it's coming because I can't find work and it's scary to think about having nothing. Ah well.
