A Letter to the Adult-ish, Young, And Confused

Once you turn that big 1-8 or 2-0 you realize that you're not a child anymore. You have so much to do and much to think about. It is all weird, confusing, and also scary to realize you do everything on your own.

Adult-ish, Young, and Confused

When did making appointments on my own, become scary?

Why are there so many different types of light bulbs to choose from?

I am on my own, whether I have grown up already or just started things. It can get scary. I try to figure out what kind of insurance I even have.

What will I do with my life? I'm not worried but stressed.

I am just figuring out who I am and what I want in life. Please do not expect me to know everything.

Please treat me older, because I am, I have changed.

I don't know what is all out there but I am hungry to know and see more.

Show me the ropes of how to adult.

Dating is hard, we are all confused and it sucks sometimes.

I stopped growing but that doesn't mean I don't stop growing emotionally.

What do I do? I have so much to think about but, will I do it?

The fact that I enjoy and appreciate cleaning more, what is that about?

The older I get, the more I fall asleep by 8 pm.

The more I value my own opinions, I am told I am too young to understand.

I am told to get it together like I am supposed to know everything already.

Apartment searching, oh gosh I could use free housing indefinitely.

I do not know much, but I am learning.

I can not afford much, but I still try.

I do not know how to do this thing called life.

For I am adult-ish, young, and confused.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
