And just like that...my last days of 21 were history. No more thrill of being ~juuuust old enough~ to get carded and proudly pass inspection. No more witty puns of twenty fun. No more rush of legality…
But at the same time, it’s exciting! 22 is a year of adventure...of graduations and goodbyes...starting new careers...entering grad schools–it’s a roller coaster.
And it’s just as crazy as Taylor Swift says it is. Both in the best way and the not-so-best way. But if you need more reasons, here’s 10 explaining how 22 is "happy, free, confused, and lonely," etc.:
1. You’re still over 21, so party party party!
2. You realize you’re approaching your mid twenties and still have no direction in life.
3. Your parents either eagerly welcome you home or passive aggressively try to get you to move out.
4. You can no longer blame your wild nights on “just being twenty fun!”
5. You’re officially even more of an adult so you feel like you can do literally whatever the f%$# you want.
6. You can baby talk your young friends who are still 21.
7. You get called old by those younger friends.
8. You’re one revolution around the sun closer to being your best self.
9. You’re one revolution around the sun further from just being a kid with a simple life and simple problems.
10. You can proudly strut around singing “22” by Taylor Swift and have it actually apply to you.
