317 days and Counting

I'm a 21-year-old kid doing my best to fool people into thinking I am an adult. So far, I think it's working. And even if my masquerade slips, I can blame it on still being a student. Because students can get away with so many things! For example, buying cheap tickets with discounts, living with 6+ roommates, wearing snapbacks, and saying things like #yolo. You know, things that no normal adult would really ever do.

But, in 317 days I will be leaving undergrad life and be entering...gulp...


THE REAL WORLD.

I mean, it'll be great. I'm as excited as a small child receiving an ice cream cone. Unfortunately, I'm that one kid who doesn't know what flavor she wants because she is terrified of choosing something, like cherry, due to an adventurous phase but really really doesn't like cherry flavor, which she finds out after ordering and tasting said ice cream cone therefore messing up her entire day. Except, it would be my "professional adult" life and not ice cream. And run-on sentences aren't allowed as an adult.

Thing is, I know almost no one absolutely knows what they want to do when they grow up. Even late into their 40's. But I have school debt to pay and some plan is better than no plan. Right?

So, I'm going to brainstorm. Hence, this blog. I'll be posting a new idea every few days or so and hopefully I'll find something that sticks. Some ideas are going to be completely non-realistic and some may actually be my future adult life. I guess we'll see.

Much love,
Michelle, the adult-kid
