Graduates: how did you feel when you'd finished your degree?

Question:Did all the late nights and stress catch up with you? Did you feel really knackered afterwards and did it take some time to catch up with yourself, kinda like jetlag?

Answers:
I graduated in July and I'm still knackered, it's hard to get back into a routine and get stuff done. What makes things worse is that I start a PGCE in September and I know that I'm gonna struggle.
I am on the threshold of a completely new phase in my life. I am a new person. A whole new world is ahead.
I have got to be SOMEONE!
I felt relieved and eager to start my career, of which I'm currently in. I had waited so long to be able to state I had a career rather than a job, and it feels good to so now.

I did however still crave learning more from school and having a degree to prove it, so I quickly started my second degree. I guess I'm kind of weird for thinking this, but for me a better time in the evenings is to spend it in a class rather than at home watching TV. But the key thing for me is to do this while I'm establishing my career, so that I can kill two birds with one stone.
I Felt tired and give out. I worked full time while going to school sometimes 12 hours a day for several days and weeks at a stretch. Then get off an 7 in the morning and go to classes. But on the plus side 99.9% of my core courses was review since I had already gone through an apprenticeship school.
But even at that was still give out when got my degree.
Well, I haven't graudated HS or college yet..2 years left of HS.. However, I will feel accomplished and take pride in it. Knowing that I have made all the right choices it takes to get there.
Lol...relieved, a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Didn't stop me from doing my masters, and recently acheiving my PhD though...you'd think I'd have learned!
