In less than two months, I will turn 25. I am only looking forward to the presents because I really could use some extra cash. Nothing else. Sometimes I think I might have missed some sweet opportunities between 22-25... because of career building, laziness, or fear. Am I where I should be? I can only hope so, but there's a lot I want to do, and a career I need to build. Being responsible sucks.
So I am going through a sort of quarterlife crisis. Fear not, family,I will emerge as an older, wiser, hot mess. Here are some random quarter-life thoughts...
- I LIKE to stay at home on some Friday nights and watch lifetime. Does this mean I am turning into a cat lady?
- I don't want to change windshield wipers or do handy man jobs. . Am I going to find someone who can deal with me AND do all the handy man stuff? Start the novenas and roasries, ladies.
- When am I going to take a year off to Europe? Did that boat already pass? I thought a European prince was going to whisk me off my feet?
- This economy is doing nothing for my age. Getting older used to mean more experience and money.
- Does family ever stop lecturing? Probably not.
- Am I a girl not yet a woman? Or am I a woman? Brittney Spears, please advise!
- My friends have babies... that were PLANNED.
- It was SO much easier to lose weight at 21. All I had to do was cough.
- It was SO much easier to go out a few nights in a row at 21.
- Studying for grad school + working + having a life = sucks... Ahh It's time to focus on the "career path."
- Life's too short to make bad decisions- or is it? Do I need to have concrete plans right now for my next ten? OR is it better not to? Hmmm....
24... almost 25... kinda stuck in the middle (without you)
That's all.

ReplyDeleteAnd I know what you mean about the quarter life crisis. I hit mine in May and it's a toughie.

ReplyDelete- I don't want to change windshield wipers or do handy man jobs. . Am I going to find someone who can deal with me AND do all the handy man stuff? Start the novenas and roasries, ladies. Yes, dont rush it.
- When am I going to take a year off to Europe? Did that boat already pass? I thought a European prince was going to whisk me off my feet? Its not too late, and it looks great on a resume
- This economy is doing nothing for my age. Getting older used to mean more experience and money. Nothing we can do here....
- Does family ever stop lecturing? Probably not. Nope. Never.
- Am I a girl not yet a woman? Or am I a woman? Brittney Spears, please advise!
- My friends have babies... that were PLANNED. Listen, you're still young. Ask them if they had waited a few more years to get married if they would have done it...
- It was SO much easier to lose weight at 21. All I had to do was cough. This is true
- It was SO much easier to go out a few nights in a row at 21. This is also true
- Studying for grad school + working + having a life = sucks... Ahh It's time to focus on the "career path." Relax
- Life's too short to make bad decisions- or is it? Do I need to have concrete plans right now for my next ten? OR is it better not to? Hmmm....
