I worked insanely hard to graduate from college in four years, I switched universities and majors, took hours of summer classes to be able to stay on that four year track.
Now, I have one more year left of college and I'm starting to feel those senior year blues.
In high school, I couldn't wait to leave and I was so ready to get out of there. Most referred to that as senioritis and man did I have the worst of it.
I am having the exact opposite feeling as I am about to go into my senior year of college.
I'm starting to have all of these questions:
How does one actually "adult"?
I am convinced that no one ever really figures this one out and that we all just pretend like we know what we are doing and hope that nothing catches "fire"
How do I pay bills?
Are all the bills due at the same time? Where do I get the money to pay all these bills? Does water actually cost that much money?
Yeah I still don't know the answer to any of those but yes water does actually cost that much.
Whats a budget?
I actually learned how to make a budget in one of my event planning classes, however, I never implemented one in my life and now I use my debt card like a gift card and just pray that there is money on it.
Last question,
Do you actually need all of this furniture?
I am moving into my apartment in about 5 days and I am astounded at how much furniture I don't have and how much I actually need. I'm half tempted to get lawn chairs and set them up in the living room and call it a day.
Would make moving out a hell of a lot easier.
All of these questions have been causing me some major anxiety about growing up and if I'm ready for it. Maybe I'll just have to go for a victory lap...
Probably won't, but wish me luck as fake my way through being an adult this year.
