Eyes Open

It's funny how when you're not looking time flies by so quickly.
It seems like summer just started, but in reality, it's almost over.
There's no way in hell I'm a junior in college.
We didn't graduate 2 years ago...That's just crazy talk.
There's no way that I'm turning 21 this year. 21 is old.
When did my mom stop picking out my clothes? Now that's just nonsense.
Ok, Lance Bass is gay? What happened to N*Sync? Aren't they cool anymore?
I don't have to ask permission to do anything. Ever. It's weird.

But growing up sucks. I just want to be 20 forever. Ok, so maybe not. At work today I realized that no matter how grown up or old I am, my life is still just beginning. I've got a billion things to look forward to....Graduating from college, finding a real job, marriage? Kids? Retirement plans? Vacation homes? I've done a lot of stuff in 20 years, who knows what's next.

Holy crap, it must be a sickness going around, because I had those same thoughts last night!!! I was super overwhelmed.

Um, I have those thoughts everyday. I hate growing up, and love it at the same time. And I think it's scary. But maybe that's just me. And yes, it's totally weird. But I think it is always going to feel weird getting older. I think i'm going look around when I'm 50 and still be like "this is weird. it seems like college was not that long ago, and like i just had my kids. weird."
