Goodbye teen years -- here comes the young adult stage of my life. Still, I consider myself childish, like a 16-year old mind trapped in a 24-year old body. Too proper that I admit it, but it's one effective way to "de-stress" from the reality of, well, getting old. Read along the following 12 lines and by the end of it, you'll be either laughing by yourself or start denying (I don't really give a damn), or maybe both. Cheers to being old!
1. Someone way younger than you is already pregnant and/or getting married. You get a horrible feeling that the maturity stage of adulthood starts at that young person's age, so you're well waaaay over that boundary.
2. You look at high school/college photos of yourself and wonder how young and irritatingly innocent you look. Or how chubby or skinny you were. Or how outdated your fashion style was. Ding dong! You're old.
3. Your young niece has a boyfriend and your nephew is growing a puberty moustache. Well gone were the day when they'd cry for candy from you.
4. A stranger is calling you by the title "Sir" or "Ma'am". And then you had the sudden urge kill him after knowing he's older than you.
5. You already worry too much about getting old, you're actually trying to deny it.
6. Relatives are pestering you, wondering when you will ever get married (And so the killing instinct boils again).
7. You sleep less during the night, up longer during the day, and there's nothing you can do about it but a coffee fix and a huggable pillow to stay sane for the next months.
8. You're getting health conscious for the strangest reasons you could ever think of.
9. You flirt 20x more than before, and in new forms you never dreamed you would be doing.
10. You watch PG-18 movies, or go to a Casino, or waste away on a bar.. and the guard doesn't mind asking your ID at all.
11. Your taste for clothes changed.. they now make you look mature and sophisticated.
12. You're starting to count the years before you turn 30's or 40's, and either daydreaming or freaking out on what would happen to you by then.
