It's so weird, the concept of growing up. I've been thinking about my life compared to the lives of other people that I know, and I'm realizing every single day who I want to be and who I don't want to be. I don't want to be someone stuck in the past- reliving their glory days through high school or college, I don't want to be someone that needs things to be handed to them. I don't want to be solely dependent on my parents for money and financial gain, I don't want to be someone that is stuck in their old ways, someone who won't expand their horizons when and opportunity is staring them smack in the face. I call those people losers.
But not becoming a loser means I have to grow up and face the things in front of me. Being an adult is hard. The other day my mom called me and promptly told me I needed to get my taxes sorted out, I needed to make an appointment with the dentist and the gyno and also needed to get my car fixed. How awful do all those things sound? Pretty bad but I have to take care of them because I'm an adult. I also have no money this month - paying crap off an bills are basically the worst things in the world.
Tonight Jess and I are having a sleepover, complete with Disney movies, makeup, nail polish, junk food, pajamas and wine. How great is that? I remember when I was little I always loved sleepovers because you got to stay up so late playing video games and watching movies and now that I'm old and can go to bed anytime I want it doesn't seem so special, but I think tonight will be really really fun. I need a little escape to my childhood.
Until next time,
Mal xoxo
