数以百万的毕业生即将结束他们的大学生涯,步入"现实世界"(注意下,这里可不是为"现实世界"做电视宣传).这是一个开启希望之途的时刻.这次,送上9种充分利用这一特殊时刻的诀窍.
9. Keep Building and Maintaining Your Friendships
建立新友谊,维持老朋友关系
Making friends after college is hard, but meaningful friendships make a big difference on almost every aspect of your life for decades to come. So make an effort to stay in touch with the friends closest to you now and make new friends even as you get busy with work.
毕业后交朋友是件难事,但是真正有意义的友谊,在你今后几十年的人生中都会产生重大影响.所以,努力与你身边最亲近的朋友保持联系,同时在你繁忙的工作中交几个新朋友.
8. Know How to Brand Your "Useless" College Degree
知道如何包装你那"不起眼"的大学学历
Not everyone graduates with one of the best-paying degrees. If yours is among those with the worst return on your money, not all hope is lost. During your job search, even a "useless" degreecan be shown as valuable.
并不是每个人都是热门工作的对口专业毕业生.如果你的工作被列入最糟糕收入的名单,并不是意味着你就失去了所有的希望.
7. Start Cooking for Real
开始真正的学做饭
Given the tiny (or nonexistent) kitchens most college students deal with and perhaps too much prior assistance from Mom & Dad restaurant, cooking isn't a skill universal to college grads. Pick up some essential kitchen skills, learn how to make some basic meals and still stay within your food budget, and brush up on other top cooking tips you should know.
鉴于大多数大学生接触到的厨房都是迷你型的(或是根本就不存在),或许他们在此之前更多都是依靠爸妈做饭,因此对于大型毕业生来说,做饭是一项陌生的技能.学会一些基本的厨房技能,了解如何做一些基本的饭菜,这都将算入大学毕业生对于食物的预算当中.并且你应该要知道提高其他的顶级烹饪技巧.
