  • Final Thoughts

    Have fun, make friends and try new experiences. Get off social media and get outside if its making you tired, jealous or depressed. 16

    You're going to do great things! 23

    Have fun and don't forget who you are 21

    Do not follow the crowd, know yourself, strengthen the important relationships and let go of those that dont serve you. 18

    Give thanks to the Lord for he is good, for his love endures forever. 20

    You are driven, smart, hardworking, and ready for the next step. I know you'll overcome any changes thrown your way. 24

    If you're moving to a new city, reach out to your Alumni network there or any other groups you were a part of before (or have interest in). It's hard to make friends post-graduation but as long as you push yourself to keep meeting people, it'll work out. Exercise classes are also a great way to make friends! 15

    Make the most of these last few months. Take pictures, make memories, enjoy spending time having some of the best people youll ever meet all in one place together. Youre gonna miss it. 21

    Transitioning to independence after graduation can be overwhelming, but it's also incredibly rewarding. Budget wisely, prioritize building your credit score, and don't hesitate to ask for advice when you need it. Also, focus on forming meaningful connections in your community, it can make a big difference when youre far from home.22

    Youre going to miss college. A lot. I graduated a few years ago and Im still wishing I was back at Vandy all the time. Enjoy your time at VU, because its so unique and an incredible four years. But life after is pretty awesome too, so get excited because yall made it! Congratulations! 19

    1) Happiness is reality minus expectations. 2) You are more resilient than you might give yourself credit for. 3) More than where, more than what, it's always who. People. It's always people that matter most. 22

    The best is truly yet to comeyou have your whole life ahead of you! 18

    Take time to live your life and be human! Looking for work and managing it can be stressful (especially at first) Dont compare your journey to anyone elses. It can be really hard to not compare, but trust that you are exactly where you need to be and that everything will happen in due time. Your journey is unique and theres a lot of beauty in that. Learn to embrace it instead of wishing it looked like someone elses. 20 but (in my opinion) work is a means to an end to enjoy your real life! Mistakes will happen but they'll help you understand more! 21

    Good luck! Chin-up, you are well prepared. 23

    Dont be afraid to change your planthe job that you love when you are in your 20s does not have to be the job that you love or fits your life stage in your 30s. 17

    Dont worry about tomorrow; take things one step at a time and be sure to maintain those relationships you truly value, as its much harder to stay in touch once people move to different areas. 19

    Congrats and follow your passions! 23

    VU is always your home no matter how far away you are. Invest in your VU ties and they will invest in you. 18

    Enjoy your senior year and all that 91勛圖厙 has to offer! There is so much that the university has to offer both academically and socially.23

    With all the love in the world, congratulations, and good luck!! It may feel scary at times but try to enjoy the ride.22
