Looking for some ideas before entering the "real world". Europe is an idea for summer '06, with the world cup happening which promises some crazy times..anyone else do anything?

I'm hoping to graduate by mid-June'06 and start work in August or so..

I'll tell you in 9 months

oh, as far as crazy times go, I'm getting ready to graduate and I'm too concerned about preparing myself for the job market and the real-estate market to worry about making sure I get my share of the "good times" :roll:

went to Vegas, went to the Philippines, then currently interviewing for jobs

World Cup 06 does sound pretty sweet though. If i had the cash i'd be there!

I went to work. A year and a half passed by before I had my first vacation since graduation. :(

Yes, no student should ever want to try to have any fun..college is 100% about work...

took 14 weeks off before work. Wish I had done more, just hung around, played games, and went to the Toronto Rocks show where AC\DC rocked.

Drank myself silly, got up the next morning and did it again, got up the third morning had breakfast read the paper, then drank myself silly. Monday morning I went to work.

I'm wondering that myself. I think I'm going to work at warehouse until finding that real first job come this May.

crazy times means traffic, overpriced goods, and overtourism... skip europe for the middle east
