My graduation was a smashing success and my diploma looks good on my wall. Now I have to wake up when ever my boss decides to call. Sleeping in is not an option, I am always on the clock. I wanted to be on my own, now I wish I could go back to school. I studied for 4 years and only partied a little. I thought it was only 9 to 5 but its more like daylight to the next sunrise. I never see my friends anymore, they have their own lives. My old roommate has twins and has forgotten what it is to sleep. I am not far behind because I work just to eat. So when I do get a day off, my parents want me to stop by. My mother has a dozen errands for me and my dad wants me to mow the lawn. I think I will just go back to work, at least I get paid for being hassled there. Who new life would be so hard, oh wait I must have missed that class. Welcome to reality my dad once said, yeah pop its a real blast.
