I feel like I am experiencing what most experience during their "quarter life crisis" or Pre-30th birthday as I approach my 27th birthday (which happens to be in just 9 minutes).
I know that 27 is young and that I have the world at my fingertips but allow me to feel what I feel. I mean, this is my blog after all. :)
I thought that I would have a career in the music industry or with a non-profit or something else that is just plain awesome. I thought that I would be married with a kid on the way. I thought life would look A LOT differently than it does today.
My boss and I had a conversation yesterday during which she asked me what I wanted to do for a career. At that instant I was reminded that I didn't have a career, but a handful of jobs, and was about to turn 27. It stung a little bit.
Today, I went with a class to see a play and a line kept being repeated, as it was the central theme of the play... "what good are amazing experiences if you have no one to share them with". Yup, that stung too.
So, as I lie here awake, when I should be asleep, I can't help but think of what is to come. Though I don't have a husband (or even a boyfriend or even a crush) or a career, I do have the most amazing friends, jobs that I love, and a lot of fun memories from my early and mid 20's.
Who knew that 27 would be so tough?
