After graduation, I knew that from here on out my life was just truly beginning. There would be no more depending on my parents for all of my financial needs. when we were off from school. I had been recognized into the real world, where working everyday full-time. With working though comes with making money, Being on my own was the most crucial idea I had after graduation. I had realized that the fun teen years were now over and it was now time to grow and mature into a grown-up.
