What’s Everyone Doing These Days?
By kathrynv on Mar 20, 2009 in Education
Ten years. That’s how long it has been since I walked down the aisle of my high school graduation ceremony, tossed my cap in the air and said goodbye to most of my friends. That’s how long it has been since I have seen most of those people. However, sites like Facebook now make it possible for me to get back in touch with those people to see what they’re doing these days.
Most of the people that I know from high school are doing more or less what I would have thought they were doing. Judi had always said that she wanted to be a doctor and she’s now completed not one but two Master of Science Health Science Programs (a Physician Assistant Program and an Occupational Therapy Program) so she’s well on her way towards achieving that goal. Sam is wrapping up law school just like she’d planned. Joe owns his own business after doing just a bachelors program in a basic business degree.
It’s not quite the same for me. I’ve jumped around a lot from one job to the next. I’ve moved to a few different cities and explored the way of life in each of them, focusing more on entertainment and relationships than any particular career. And you know what? I am the one who has the most interesting stories to tell when we get online and someone asks “so, what’s everyone doing these days?”
