‘TIS STILL graduation season so I have a couple of important things to say to the all the graduates of Class 2009. 
First: CONGRATULATIONS!
Common folks, you can now let the cat out of the bag and admit all your indiscretions and foolishness in the past 4-8 years (Anybody who took more than 8 years to finish his undergrad course?).
You’ve boozed, doped, dallied, rioted, flunked, and so on and so forth. But hey, you’ve graduated! That is all that matters now. Your past is past and your sins are now forgiven and forgotten — at least until your first job interview. What did the wise say? CARPE DIEM. Seize the day! You can pay for it later.
Second: CONGRATULATIONS FOR GRADUATING THIS YEAR!
It was not your choice to graduate this year. But you should not complain. In fact you should be rejoicing for there is no better time to graduate and start a career (or business) than now. The world economy is in a recession so you are starting from rock-bottom. Under the current circumstances, there is no where for you to go but up.
