I'll feel a lot more comfortable once I get that first job in the industry I want to be in, shite job or not.
Definitely.
Also, I recommend saving. I know its hard for someone our age, but try. My friends and I party so much and I indulge in nice things so much that I have shite for savings other than my 401k and I'm about to get engaged and its biting me in the arse. I have changed my ways however and have several savings accounts now, just wish I had started sooner.
When you first get a paycheck after college it feels like you're the richest man alive
Continue to live like you're on a college budget and the money will go very, very far

I have an idea of what I want to do.
Will shed my student debt as quickly as I can, and hopefully simultaneously save up for an engagement ring.
Once I have the ring, then I should be able to pay off my student fairly quickly. Definitely want to take care of that before marriage. I'd imagine my parents will help me out some with that, but I can't rely on that.
After that, I'll be pretty set, when the girl graduates law school, we'll be in a pretty prime position. She'll be debt free when she graduates, so that's pretty huge, so we'll be able to put away some money starting fairly early. I'm 25 now, and she's 23.
So, I like where we're headed, like I said, I just worry about landing in that first job, after that, I feel like we'll be headed in a great direction./

I have had the most success with automatic deductions from every paycheck. If the money makes it to my checking acct, it is getting spent....
