the college life and working life are 2 very different world.
everyone needed a bridge to connect these 2 worlds together.
however, there are 2 scenarios.

1) is that a direct transition?
after high school, u go to college. after college, u get a job.

2) is that a undirect transition or interleave transition?
-- after high school, u study part-time and u work full-time.
-- after high school, u study full-time and u work part-time.
-- after high school, u work full-time for a few years and later, u study full-time.
-- after high school, u work full-time for a few years and later, u study part-time.
-- before finish high school, u work part-time and later, either one of the above.

for case 1), 2 things could happen in general,
-- when they got into the work force, they started to network.
they build relationships. these people know they need mentors and they
are humble and they hunger for advices. these people will become edustreetsmart.
they are in control.
-- they do not really know what will happen. they are cautious since
most people are more senior than them. they tend to hang-out among their
fellow graduates. they are not in control.

for case 2), when those events happens, people know it for u have no choice.
2 things could happen in general.
-- they are desperate for financial support. they worked and trying to find
the quickest way to get the most. some did indecent jobs and some did not fall.
they are not in control. some are humble and most are not.
-- they have a plan. they take things one step at a time. they seek advices.
they are humble. they are in control.

internship
-- this is a special kind of bridge but a lot of people do not see it or who could not
predict how powerful/resourceful it can be. it gives esposures to what happens
in the working world.


-- how did u walk your bridge?
