College Graduate Dichotomy

When a person graduates from college, although they have a degree they may not be able to get a job because they don’t have experience. But, they can’t get experience unless they get a job.

The term was first coined by Dain Lewis on his blog the smart college grad.
Jack graduated from college with a degree in business. But, Jack didn't work at any businesses while in college. Jack then couldn't get a job after college because he didn't have experience. But, he couldn't gain any experience because no one would hire him. Jack found himself in the college graduate dichotomy.

Colleena

“Colleena is a great friend, and can be a great enemy too. No enemies are great though, especially Colleena. Do NOT get on a Colleena’s bad side, she can literally kill you and have no remorse over it. What makes a Colleena a great friend is that she’ll tell you the truth even if it hurts. If you’ve got a Colleena as your friend, she’s got your back and will hurt anyone who messes with her and/or you. A Colleena may look innocent, but she can be a demon. If you have a Colleena as an enemy, she WILL take you down. A Colleena can be very competitive and cold. For some reason, a Colleena’s hands are always cold. I don’t know why? Kinda ironic since she can get cold easily. She can also get hot easily too...weird. A Colleena will normally think on how to gain world domination. Don’t underestimate a Colleena’s shortness, she’s got a LOT of power and can be very strong. She will try to overthrow and challenge a person who meets her abilities. She’s very competitive in a competition and will try her hardest to best you. She is a storm to mess with. A Colleena will also tackle you( that’s how a Colleena hugs) Watch our though, she can backstab you anytime though. A Colleena is both a friend and an enemy(frienemy) saying that she’s a great friend but you’ll still have a big rivalry with her. She can be the sweetest person alive but can turn intimidating and cold hearted in the blink of an eye. That’s basically, your friendship with a Colleena. Luv ya! “
From, a person named Angelica
