Graduation

So, as everyone is graduating and turning to social media to brag about their 2.1 (or above) degrees, I’m sat here feeling very miserable about my 2.2.

Throughout the past few years, the ideology that a 2.2 isn’t good enough, has been drilled into my head. So the fact that, after going through the past 3 years of what seemed like hell, with depression, constantly feeling homesick and still working my butt off for every single assignment, the fact that I have attained a 2.2 sort of makes me feel like I’m good for nothing. Will I honestly not be able to get to where I want to be in life? Is this honestly it? Is it the end?

Right now, I’m refusing to give up, I’ll fight and give it my all. My dreams are my dreams and I won’t give up on them so easily. But I sure hope that a 2.2 isn’t going to be the reason I’m pulled back. Employers can’t honestly judge someone because of the level of degree they’ve attained, without even considering the fact that there may be a reason behind it. Can they?

I guess only time will tell. The reason for this post was, I guess, just for me to let out my feelings. I feel like a failure but at the same time I refuse to give up. Only time will tell, but I’ll keep you guys updated though, for sure.
