大学毕业前要做的9件事

我们生活的时代一切变化都太快了，不曾留给我们足够的时间用来思考。每天清晨一睁眼，我们仿佛就进入到了另一个世界，发达的互联网会让异地发生的事情在几秒后出现在你的电脑前，时光匆匆流过，有些事情我们不能错过。

很欣慰身边的朋友都积极面对生活，对未来充满的美好的憧憬。你们大都还在读书，努力打好地基，可是转眼间我们就要拥入变化万千的世界。晚上上网时浏览了一篇文章，觉得有可取之处，进而决定和我们这些上进青年分享一下。内容很简单，就是大学毕业前要做的50件事，在这里截取了一些内容，希望大家可以抽空感受一下。

在你离开大学前要做的50件事

1 Spend at least one week researching your career

Do you want to use your biology degree in a laboratory? Do you want to use your chemical know-how to teach kids? Or do you want to forget the specifics - like 45 per cent of graduates - and head for something totally different, like finance? It may seem obvious, but you'll never win your dream job until you answer these fundamental questions, and are honest with yourself about the skills you have, the skills you'd like to use and the skills you need to develop, says Elspeth Farrar, director of the Careers Advisory Service at Imperial College London. Lots of people fret about their career decisions without scouring any job ads, reading any careers advice or checking any websites. Put the legwork in, and you'll fret no more.

1. 花至少一周的时间来研究你的职业生涯

你想用你的生物学毕业证书在研究室里工作吗？你打算用你的化学知识教小孩子吗？或者你想要忘记过去这些专业知识——就像45%的大学毕业生一样——转向一些完全不同的东西，例如金融。在你回答这些基本的问题之前，你将永远不会得到你梦寐以求的工作，诚实的面对你所掌握的技能，一些你想用的技能和一些你需要发展的技能。Elspeth Farrar ，Imperial学院（伦敦），职业规划顾问服务经理，说：“许多人在未进行任何工作广告调查前对他们的职业规划而感到头疼，如果进行了此方面的调查，你将不再感到烦恼。”

2 Send off a job application

Practice makes perfect, they say, so why not try your hand at a few before the real crunch time arrives.

2. 发出工作申请

俗话说熟能生巧，那么为什么不在真正紧要关头来临前尝试着手做几次呢。

3 Work on your CV

Boring, but it has to be done, and aeons before you graduate. Some careers advisers suggest that you start by compiling your "fantasy" CV - it will let you see where the holes are. More important is to include absolutely every relevant bit of work, activities or voluntary work you've done, says Heather Collier of the National Council for Work Experience. It all counts.

3．着手做你的履历

无聊，但是你必须做，并且在你毕业之前。一些职业规划顾问建议，你可以从完成想象中的履历开始——这将让你看到你的不足在哪里。更重要的是这个想象的履历包含了每一个相关的工作，活动或是你完成的义务劳动。

4 Hand in an assignment a week early

You'll be amazed at the feeling.

4．提前一个星期交作业

这种感觉会给你惊喜。

5 Visit every library on campus

And learn, once and for all, how to locate books and journal articles from the library database. If that sounds too much like hard work, have a picnic with some friends in a dark corner. Choose your section wisely to avoid discovery: the area given to scientific journals more than 40 years old is usually a good bet.

5.参观校园的每一个图书馆

进而学习一下，一劳永逸，学习如何从图书馆的数据库找到图书和杂志。如果那听起来很困难，那就和同学们找个黑暗的角落野餐。聪明的选择报刊栏，避免被发现：陈列科学杂志40年之久的地方应该会是不错的选择。

6 Star in a play

Apart from the glory and attention, think of the benefits to your interviewing skills: speaking under pressure, the ability to improvise and to appear calm in any situation. The cast parties are usually a bit of a whirl, too.

6. 成为游戏里的主角

远离荣誉和注意，想一想面试时的优势：在压力之下讲话，即兴发挥能力和在任何情况下保持冷静。面试官通常也会有一点手忙脚乱。

7 Attend a history lecture

Or any other subject that's not your own. They say university is about broadening the mind, so look interested and take lots of notes. Who knows, you might decide that your degree was the wrong choice, and you'd be better placed studying ancient Chinese porcelain.

7. 参加一个历史演讲

或者任何一个不是你所学专业的学科。有人说大学是在拓宽你的思想，所以寻找有趣的东西并且做一些笔记。谁会知道你的毕业证会不会是一个错误的选择，你可能更适合学习古代中国瓷器。

8 Fall madly in love

And of course, get your heart broken. It's a learning experience. Especially when you have lectures with the object of your affection every day.

8. 疯狂地坠入爱情

当然，要让你的心破碎。这是一个学习的经历。特别是当你每天和你喜爱的另一个人上课的时候。

9 Take a course or alternative module

Heck, you might even learn something new. Plus it shows you are well-rounded and flexible, have varied interests and are open to new ideas - very desirable employee traits.

9.选一门课程或者可选的某个单元

只是为了好玩，你也许会学到一些新的知识。做这种事情能显示出你的多才多艺和灵活性，有各种各样的兴趣，开放的面对新的思想——非常值得拥有的雇员特点

先说这些，一点点跟大家分享。上面所提到大学前，其实不然，我们可以把这些思想推广到任何人的青年阶段，只要你正在追求幸福的道路上。

我想说这些真的对一个积极面对生活的人有多益处，欢迎就某个话题一起讨论。
