FUNemployment, as my fellow batch mates call it, is supposed to be a time of enjoyment and relaxation.

Review: The Alchemist


I have always thought that in this time of my life, at 21 years old, I would have everything figured out. It turns out that I only have some certainty for what the immediate future holds.
