Meme: Then & Now
Borrowed from meneleth
Let me know if you want to play, too! Give me your current age (ish) and I’ll give you a number. Meneleth gave me 19, so:
When I was 19 (in 2005)
I lived in: the dorms of Chestnut Hill College (except weekends, when I came back home)
I drove: nothing. Didn’t get my license until I was 26!
I was in a relationship with: nobody. But I had great friends.
I feared: growing up. Being an adult is hard!
I worked at: school. I was lucky enough not to have a job in college
I just wanted to be: a good student.
&
Today, at 29:
I live in: my parents’ house (and I am totally fine with that)
I drive: a 2013 Smart, my ‘wee tiny car’
I am in a relationship with: still nobody. Single and enjoying it.
I fear: not finding a job. Not being able to keep one. The economy is crap, politicians are literally out to get women and/or the poor, businesses get away with whatever they can… the future is not looking bright, and that scares me.
I work at: nowhere, just now.
I just want to be: stable. A steady, not-horrible job, not too far from home, making enough to pay my bills, and finally let me have some free time to- maybe- have a social life or do some volunteering.
