mild existential crisis
12 years ago
I'm going to be turning 20 in about a month and I have no idea what I'm doing with myself. Mercifully I'm able to avoid Thanksgiving with the family, and thus avoid the "Are you on your way to the two-and-a-half-kids white-picket-fence" type questions, but I know I'll get them later in the year. Yech yech yech.
I've gotten nowhere on any of my medical conditions, I've gotten nowhere as far as my schooling goes, with the only lifesaver being a scholarship that's kept me out of debt so far.
But I guess things are okay. Just that not being a teenager anymore is more than a little intimidating.

If you ever wanna chat about these kinds of things... I sympathize with what you're talking about.
Its scary, but you're never alone.
Hope you can relax by yourself on Thanksgiving, and not get pestered too badly. I know that feeling..
You've got your art, your community, and your family no matter what they say to you. You're better than the people your age who are dirty dancing on table and getting people / getting preggers.
of course having those questions asked is troublesome but really, you have made progress. you've taking the steps you need, at the rate you can.
But yes thank you reminders are good. uvu (as are hugs)
You still have a decade to invest in your manifest destiny.
Oh god and THOSE questions...sigh. I managed to finally have mom give up on asking me if I'm going to have kids, so that's a relief.
