I woke up this morning facing the harrowing realization that SUMMER IS OVER WITH. Which, for people in my area, means that we are at the threshold of winter.

It is SO, SO strange to see all of my peers embarking onto adulthood.

I suppose it's a process and maybe I'm being impatient, but some days I just feel like I'm... just living for each day? I don't have any real long term goals. Yes, I'd like to buy a house and start a family one day, but it's not something I really WANT to do immediately. It's like I still just want to fool around and enjoy life... it's certainly not a bad thing, but I feel like I *should* be more adult at my age.

I know... 25 AHHH @_@ I guess you could say we're like fine wine/cheese... we get better with age XD

I agree! I have goals but there are no deadlines for them.. that's the part of the openness of post-college life that I feel is really disorienting. I'm not pushing myself too hard yet - I feel like I've earned the fool around time now that I have disposable income and all that. But at the same time, it's dangerous because I can easily see people having TOO much fun and never becoming an adult. I gotta admit, it's really nice to come home and just space out with video games or TV without thinking of investing money or buying a home. :)

There needs to be another term for where we are - no longer kids but not yet adults? I wonder when we *should* start becoming adults.. it's been 2 years since college and I'm still reminding myself that I CAN veg out and it's OKAY. :)
