the thought is not settling

i've done it. i've completed the human resources management graduate certificate program and i start my 7 week placement on monday. this sounds exciting right? sure it is, however completing the program and starting a placement brings me to a few changes in my life.. im excited, scared, stressed, relaxed, etc.. i could go on about the constantly altering and contradictory emotions im overwhelmed with about these changes but im choosing not to. 
basically, finishing this program means no more school for a long time.. after 20, almost 21 years of school, classes, homework, assignments, tests, and classmates im finished now with all of it. granted.. i do hope to complete an MBA eventually, meaning im not entirely done with school.. but for now, im saying im done! finished! complete! okay so other than being finished school, a change that is going to take me awhile to get used to, im also starting a placement in the human resources department at a hospital. 7 weeks of practical experience.. did i mention it was unpaid? 7 weeks of unpaid work, 8:30 am - 4:30 pm five days a week. yeah.. ahhhh.. not so sure im ready for that. first of all, unpaid sucks -im going to have to take as many weekend/night shifts at work as they will give me.. i do need some source of income!. second of all i've never had a full time job. i've worked 3 jobs in my life and they have consisted of a nursing home (4:30-7:45 shifts 2 or 3 times a week), a tennis club (which i worked 7:30-3:30 but it consisted of me sitting at a computer desk playing solitaire and greeting club members when they came in.. oh and it was maybe 3 times a week) and the current retail job i have (which is definitely not full time).. so yes this placement will be a real change. then there is the whole finding a real.. grown up job/career. after the placement is finished i need to start searching for jobs, sending in resumes and creating cover letters. all that grown up stuff i still feel too young to do. i know, im almost 25.. its not that young!
thats what happening in my life right now. 
im hoping this placement works out good :)
im off to go shopping with my mom and sister for the morning and then dinner in toronto with the boyfriend.
have a great weekend!
