It is easy to get lost in the hype of graduation and live in the moment. 

Not long after though, you’ll be expected to join the “real-world” and that’s when reality hits you the hardest. 

Here are a few postgraduate struggles that you will most definitely relate to:

1. When you won’t stop hearing the oh-so-dreaded Question “Shou EL NEXT STEP”:

2. When you need experience for the job, but you need the job for experience

3. When you turn in your CV and they thank you and tell you they’ll get back to you soon

4. When your closest friends travel to earn higher degrees and leave you in your postgraduate misery

5. When you feel your hopes and dreams shattered at the mention of the notorious word “wasta”

6. When the cold truth of how useless your degree can be hits you

7. When you lose hope and decide to unleash your hidden talents

8. When you forget about submitting your CV and start submitting this resignation letter instead

9. When you finally see a light at the end of the tunnel and it gets a little better
