Everybody is so damn grown-upish

Today I went to this baptism thing, and as expected it was nice, BUT! Everybody, they're all more or less my age, were living such grown up lives and I felt like a childish retard. I mean, do I have a husband/wife? No. Am I living with someone or is in a very serious relationship? No. Have I just bought a house/apartment and seriously find

growing up is for boring people

you can be sensible without turning into yet another mindless drone and baby making machine.

yup, that's exactly what i meant. didn't mean 'growing up' in a bad sense, since we all do, but when getting older, please keep on a bit to who you once was and don't turn...plain boring.

Haha you're getting ready for being teeny for Brett I see! Good on you! Hair and all.

And yeah. I don't know. I think growing up is fabulous, but you do NOT have to do it in a boring way. Let us never become those people!

haha yeah well you know, one gotta do what one's gotta do. gonna lighten it up a bit today though i think. feels weird to have dark hair.

yeah, i used the phrase 'growing up' as a 'bad' thing, but you got my point. i mean, don't just change your entire personality just because you're getting older. nothing bad in being a little bit childish and silly and stupid at times, you can still act and be like an adult.

Pff I don't feel grown up much of the time! And I have a husband, kids, mortgage etc. And a passionate affection for Brett Anderson. Maybe that's what causes me not feeling all grown up ;)

the thing is, i am SO happy with my life right now, so i try to ignore what some people around me think and do. i mean, it's easy to get all the things they have if life's never knocked you.

Life happens as it does. Sometimes it sucks, sometimes it doesn't.

couldn't have said it better myself.
