Wow. UC Davis is done.
Complete.
Fin.
That's all folks.
I've worked myself all the way to this point, and after years of reading assigned books, writing essays, having group discussions, and presenting projects in front of an entire class, all of it came down to me in a funny-looking black tunic and hat, shaking hands with the chancellor, and receiving an envelope enclosing papers on joining the alumni association. Sadly, you don't get the diploma at the ceremony, but a few months later in mail.
It was a bit anti-climatic then, I have to admit. But thinking about it now, it was a good feeling. A friend of mine, who now works for the federal government, told me that the best part about graduating is not exactly having your name called out on the arena PA system, with your friends and family all shouting and screaming your name, and shaking hands with the chancellor, but rather that first moment of coming out onto the arena floor. Thousands of people seated above you, like spectators at a Roman coliseum, cheering you on with a jet roar of clapping hands and whoooops. They don't know who you are exactly. But they know they're cheering for the whole class. And that...well...is a great feeling.
And now comes life after college. The whole thing is done. It's the Real World. Gone are the days of going to class and taking notes during the lecture. In are the times of filing documents, taking phone calls, learning about pension and medical benefits, and working 8 to 5.
Houston, all coordinates are set to go.
But before I can get there, other things have to be put into order. Like finding a job in the first place. So far, I've turned in around six job applications all over the Davis area. If something doesn't materialize here, then Sacramento or San Francisco are always probabilities. They're big cities with big job markets. Maybe something there, or even here, or maybe somewhere else.
We'll see.
