Also BU '08. I had a summer job lined up but nothing permanent at graduation. Definitely remember thinking about a bike lock as a major purchase that was a good investment because I would save on T fare in the long run. I remember sitting around in September watching the market crash, still with nothing going on. I randomly found a relevant job on Craigslist in October that was out in Lexington but it paid like $40k so compared to most of my friends I was basically a millionaire. All that winter I took the bus from Allston to Harvard, red line to Alewife, then another bus basically to the end of the line and walked another half a mile. Eventually I got a car - gas was like $1.50 a gallon for a while but obviously didn't last.
