Good Luck Finding a Job!

The party was a huge success! And by huge I mean that people actually came, there was plenty of food for everyone, and things ran smoothly.

A total of 24 people showed up, all except one of which were females. Everyone wore a name tag with “Goodbye my name is…” printed on it, created by yours truly. Ellen made a huge and lovely cake that said “Good Luck Finding a Job” which everyone found humourous and sadly truthful.

The funniest part of all of it was that I didn’t really want to talk to any of them that much. I mean, it was nice to see everyone coming together for a goodbye party, but after saying hello and thanking them for coming I had very little interest in striking up conversation. What else is there to say besides, “what are your plans?” I was happy to be able to play hostess with Ellen and eat all of the leftover cake. Now I feel slightly ill, but at least it hasn’t put me right to sleep.

Here’s a list of where people are going next year, after having graduated with a degree in sociology. Maybe you’re more interested than I am…

Out of 23 people, at least 9 people are going to teacher’s college. That is 39%. That’s pretty huge, I’d say. But I think we’d all agree that my plans are the coolest.

Time to study Art History.
