Self-assessment time!
Because birthdays are a good time for it.
I have to say, I'm happy with where I am in life at the moment. Sure, I'd like to actually be a millionaire but I'm going for a bit of realism here. Despite all the stress of doing my masters while working and the other things life throws at you willy-nilly I'm pretty pleased with things. The fact alone that I'm doing my masters is pretty tops. I want that and it's happening so there you go. I have a great relationship and am happy with myself.
There seems to be something in the air that is making people a bit weird these last couple of years. The people at work suffer from it everyday. They just don't stop listing off all these carbon-copy components that they think makes them a Certified Grown-Up. People lately seem to have this vision of what they should do and how they should act in order to appear adult. It must be an earlier stage of that Suited Up Bluetooth Toting Douchebag Sales Rep trend. It's weird and fake and I can't understand how people could be happy living like that. The concept of always having to put on airs because you're trying to live up to a made up ideal held only by other false people is just something I don't understand. It has to do with confidence. If they had any then they would be comfortable being themselves. But they don't so they overcompensate by buying new things, setting up the "socially ideal" life and basically playing house.
I don't feel the inclination to do any of that kind of thing and I think it'd be a very unhappy way to live. So I guess that means I'm pretty happy with the way my own life is. I am what I am, I know my faults and my strengths and I'm doing what I want to be doing. It's pretty much awesome.
