Student Vs Desk Job

From pulling all nighters to reasonable bedtimes,

From endless trips to the library to the extra hours at my cubicle,

Meeting the expectations of the professor of my hardest class, to meeting my weekly goals at work,

From the comfort of a college campus, to the streets of real life.

Once a student in a classroom, to a student with no room for error,

An uncertain future to a pre-determined one based on choice,

Strategizing how to get an ‘A,’ to strategizing weekly budgets,

Taking advantage of social availability, to regretting for not trying harder.

Being passive aggressive to being more comfortable with confrontation, 

Not knowing what to do with circumstances, to making do with them,

Getting comfortable with college bubble, to embracing real life and all that comes with it.
