Hiding behind the wall and comfort, 'knowing' your moving forward as you are getting a degree feels good and rewarding. I have seen its a bit harder afterwards as u don’t have that 'excuse' that u r moving forward by getting that significant bit of paper that proves to others ur something. You have to be more proactive, its too easy to get stuck in a company and a way of working and become another blip in an endless sea of people. far too easy, so easy its inevitable for most? (my mind thought of neo in that office block then! Matrix1) I have seen my friends move away too... things are different now, very different. Effort is needed by both parties to see each other, group meeting are extremely hard to do, organising events around peoples different schedules. I think when things happen randomly that’s when the good times are... but that doesn’t happen anymore... randomness is gone now the people that make the randomness happen have left.... Most of my friends have graduated and are getting jobs or moving back home. my friends from college have all graduated, most of my friends from university have. quite strange, feels like i have been left behind, still in the comfortable blanket of uni lol “well I’m finishing my degree before I make something off my life.” I would be silly to quit now… i have had very similar thoughts!

This is just another fitting example of that. There is only one constant in life: change. This is just another fitting example of that.
