The Crisis

When I turned 20, I was warned about the crisis.
Twenty is the new thirty, she said.




When I turned 20 there would be more worries.
I would start worrying about what I had done and what I would do with my life.
There would be more pleasures.
I was finally old enough to buy booze!


Last week I turned 21.
I still don't know what to do about my life.
..but I am now old enough to drink booze in America!!


I still haven't really celebrated it. Dad is proud of me, says that I am finally taking responsibility. Ew.


I think I have finally figured out what to do with my life, but.. How to get started?
Do I cross my fingers until autumn comes and hope I have been accepted to school?
Do I go about my everyday like I have?
That, I haven't figured out yet, so I do both.

People say that we should start using the anti-wrinkle creams already at 20 because that's when the wrinkles start appearing slightly.

We're told we shouldn't dress like 14-year olds, we should dress more appropriately.
It's just..
I dressed as a 14-year old when I was 14.
And these days the 14-year olds dress like the modern 30-year olds.
So, I guess we have to dress somewhere in the middle?


I dressed like an auntie on my 21st birthday, in my opinion.
Still people guess my age at 19, so I guess the anti-wrinkle creams can wait.
I'll go out sometime soon, get drunk and say "I'm celebrating my 21st!".
I'll keep my fingers crossed for school.

That should solve the crisis for now, I think :)
