GOODBYE MID 20′S; HELLO GROWN UP WORLD
So, it’s actually happened. I am officially a grown up. Today I turned 27. Yes, that’s right, 27. I am now in my LATE 20’s. No longer can I parade around with the angry youth mobs or use adolescent hormones as an excuse for my mood swings (although I can still use my period for that one.)
So what am I supposed to do now? I’m still pretty much the same person as I was when I was 18; slightly immature (I still watch cartoons), brazen (I had a job interview and opened with “Yes I have big tits. Now that that’s over with, let’s move on”), and very loud (at school my friends thought I was deaf due to the sheer volume of my voice. I’m one of 6 kids, if you didn’t shout you wasn’t heard.)
Am I supposed to act differenly now? Does being a grown up = being someone that you’re not? My opinion is this, I think being a grown up consists of knowing who you are and loving the person that you’ve become. I think I’m pretty much there, so fuck it, I’m a grown up. I’m a grown up and I’m ready for whatever that brings. However, the grown up world can fuck off if it thinks I’m gonna stop watching cartoons!
