Vent: Adult Anxieties

This post is mostly a bunch of mini rants.

I’m sorry in advance, because I’m sure these are probably common issues and I’m not about to offer advice for any of them. It’s nearly 2 in the morning at the time of writing, so all I can offer you is solidarity if you happen to be feeling or thinking the same things.

• I should really look for a job career.
• Career????? What’s that????? How????
• I should save up.
• Why did I buy that thing? I need to save up.
• Who would have thought I’d end up here?
• I did everything right: straight A’s in school, great university right after high school. Hm. Looks like I didn’t prepare to be anything other than a full-time student. Oops.
• Should I save up for a car? Or a trip to the north pole? Or Cambodia? Retirement? Lunch??
• I don’t have money but I have money for Taco Bell.
• *Doesn’t look at bank account*
• Should I go to grad school?
• I have friends who are married and have their careers pretty much set. Can’t relate.
• I’m old. I’m getting old. Time. TIME. IS. TICKING.
• You’re not being chased and there is no timeline; it’s just your anxiety and societal expectations talking.
• Master’s degree???
• Take your time and think. But hurry up. But don’t rush it and make a mistake!

Amirite?
