I got back to my house in Brooklyn at about 10pm after a graduation bbq in Vermont and went straight to sleep, satisfied.
I woke up the next morn and started my transition into adult life. To the normal eye, these transitions were pretty trivial. But to me, these transitional activities were M-A-J-O-R. Indeed.
First stop, Blitzmail: Change my college blitz account to a gmail account
Second stop, Facebook: Change student status to Alum status
Third stop, Facebook: Change my network to Chicago, IL
Fourth Stop, Still Facebook: Change contact email to my gmail account on my profile
Fifth Stop, Yep, you guessed it, Facebook: Add a "Work" section on my profile to describe my new life as a developing musician in the magical land of Chi-Town
Over the next few days, I will be opening up a new bank account with a bank that will better suit my traveling needs. Then, I will be cleaning up my room, throwing out my childhood unnecessaries, and packing for the Chi. All the while, working on the songs that have been stuck in my head. My creative juices now have full reign over my life! This should be a fun ride.
My summer of transitions has officially begun. Oh yea! I am going to try and continue to improve my driving skills so that I can (one day) take my test and officially have a license (all you people who are from outside of NYC, don't you dare judge).
Oh Adulthood.... or (a)-dolt-hood. Let us pray for the former.
Just so that didn't go over your head:

It's a little play on words my dad always used to say.

yeah girl, the post-college transition is a weird/great one. college is such a formative experience that leaving feels at once WONDERFUL (especially when you get honors!) but abrupt. but i'm excited to see what these next steps will bring for us.
slash i still have to create my amherst alum address!
I have to create my alum address too...and I have no idea how to do that. We'll see. For the meantime, hit me up at khadijah.bermiss@gmail.com.
