You know when you were a kid and someone
asks you what you want to be when you grow up.
The thing you don’t think about is paying rent and paying for car
insurance. This week I had to get a new
car battery and faced some of the realities of adult life. At the car place they called me mam. That was weird. When I go to schools for field work they often
mistake me for a student.
There
are perks to being an adult though. You
can hop in the car and go to the library when you want to and yes I am a nerd. You can work a job and make your own money. I love my job and honestly it probably is where
I am happiest. You get to have deep
friendships that mean the world to you.
Some of these friendships will turn into heartbreaks, but other amazing friends
will be there to help you through that time.
