This is my first blog post in approximately 3 months. Let me just begin by saying A LOT has happened in 3 months. Let's see...
- I got bongos for Easter
- I had this super tight jam session with my friend Craig who plays ukulele AND my sorority sisters thought he was professional and that we sounded like we could go street perform and make money.
- more trips to Braveheart's. because you can't have the true Alma College experience without at least a trip to Braveheart's. let's be real.
- I survived the rest of my Winter Semester, which was a rough semester
- I saw Relient K and I have been wanting to see them for YEARS
- I got to see some pretty amazing Alma College seniors graduate
- I got an A in Psychology Research Methods, which was the class that stressed me out the most
- I WENT TO ENGLAND. :D so...that was a pretty big deal and I could probably blog about each day of it (that is, as soon as I find the right words to accurately describe the pure wonderfulness that is England).
- I made it home safely after catching a standby flight to Detroit after my flight to Flint got cancelled and losing my luggage...sort of.
- I got my luggage back, after American Airlines told me it was gone forever
- I almost had/went to 3 bonfires in a row...so that was some kind of record for me, I think.
so basically, things and stuff happened and I enjoyed things and stuff. that is what you should gather from my list.
So now...for my post today. My post today has to deal with adulthood. You see, I'm going to be a senior at Alma College next year, which is both exciting and terrifying, and I need to figure some things out. Those things include whether or not I'm going to grad school, what exactly I'm going to grad school for (I think I have it narrowed down to 3 areas--all related to Psychology, mind you), when I'm going to grad school, what I'm doing if I don't go straight to grad school...etc.
So I got bored and decided to make a list of reasons why I feel like an adult and reasons why I feel like I'm not an adult. here we go.
Reasons Why I Feel Like An Adult
- I drink coffee. That's an adult thing to do, am I right? ;D
- I'm 21 so...I meet the age requirement.
- I'm going to be Maid of Honor in my best friend's wedding next spring. That's usually something you do as an adult. Keyword: usually.
- I looked at grad schools the other day!
- I'm planning a graduation present to myself that involves going back to the UK and possibly Ireland after I graduate...which involves a level of fiscal responsibility and planning an itinerary, which are pretty adult. Plus, I have to plan around the wedding and make sure my Maid of Honor duties are upheld.
- I'm going to the chiropractor because I somehow misaligned some things in my hip/lower back/tailbone region AND I might have a pinched nerve.
Reasons Why I Don't Feel Like An Adult
- It's past 11 am and I'm still in my pajamas
- I still live with my parents and will be, unless some miracle job happens that allows me to afford rent on an apartment and leaves me with enough money to buy more than just Ramen and Easy Mac for meals
- I'm still an undergrad college student, which I think gives me an inaccurate representation on how life is supposed to be sometimes.
- I currently don't have a job...which sucks, but that's what happened when I decided to go to England for a month and not do an internship with only half of my heart when I returned
Okay. I hope that was at least somewhat interesting, my dear readers. I'm going to post this video that relates to being a grown-up. It's funny, I promise.
Until next time!
