Today, I graduated from college with two undergrad degrees in biochem and wildlife biology, with high distinction. My mom told me she had found me a job at a petting zoo. I thought she was joking. She then said sternly, "I want grandkids. At least you will meet girls there." FML

I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up doing something like this with my new shiny Bachelor's degree, too.

Are you kidding me 165? Graphic Arts/Design is one of the fastest growing markets for jobs right now, demand for designers has never been higher.

i see your statement as conflicting-- it reads that you graduated from a prestigious university but also states that you are in Utah. i am in Utah and there are no prestigious undergraduate programs in our state. however; if you graduated from BYU-Law then i am truly sorry.

Double dip recession. How joyous. How bad do things have to get before it's a full blown depression?

It's ok. You have to start somewhere. Pretty soon I'm sure you'll be owning your own business of some sort!

Today, I was at a guy's house that I’d been seeing for a while. After watching a movie, I confessed that after these past few times we’ve hung out, I’ve started to catch feelings. He looked at me and said, "I actually don’t think I want anything serious, but are you down to be friends with benefits?" FML
