So here we are
2014. In some ways, 2013 was the absolute worst year of my life, but because I'm far luckier than I deserve, I was able to turn back the clock. Now I'm in the almost exact same spot I was two years ago. Except this time around I'm happy. Consistently. For no particular reason.
It's pretty nice.
I just felt like making a note of this.
This time next year, I'll be about to graduate. I know I'm technically still young, but about half the people in my program are 18 or 19, and they make me feel so old. And yet oddly immature. Like, I should be an adult by now. But I'm unemployed. Still in school. And about to move back in with my dad (I'm just really bad with money, ok.) Lately all I can think about is, how will I know when I'm finally "grown up?"
When I'm able to 100% support myself?
When I pay off my student loan?
When I have a career?
With a salary?
When I finally get a dog?
I guess there's no good answer to it. Maybe one day I'll just wake up and feel the intangible and indescribable feeling of "adulthood."
(It's also really weird to go back and read my old entries. I know I wrote them, but, damn, I was so whiny.)
(I barely remembered the name of this account. And then it took me 5 tries to get my password right.)
