Professor Rose's Annual Message to Grads

Last spring, I wrote the following post around graduation time. This year, I thought I would re-post it, especially since my 10 year high school reunion is coming up. (ew. Why did I remind myself??)

I think the messages in this post are important, and while I don't get serious often, I think this is an important read for any new grad whether college or high school, as well as for families too. 

Please read and feel free to share and repost for anyone who has or is currently dealing with a quarterlife crisis. Even better if they become a follower and I can cheer them up with my wacky antics. :)

Enjoy!

The Blog Heard Round The World

In honor of the recent interview questions surrounding the origins of Rose And The City, and the fact that I am on four hours of sleep, a 12 hour work day finished off with three hours of car test driving/shopping...I give to you a "vintage" blog post circa July 2008. The day I packed up all my belongings in my car (whatever would fit, plus my dog and cat) after a bad breakup with an alcoholic ex-boyfriend and drove my ass from Minnesota to Long Island New York to heal and start over.  The following words are from the very first blog post on Rose And The City. It's the blog heard round the world.
