Pumkn's Thought of the Day...

Quarter Life Crisis - fact? Or, is this term being used to hide the realization that we are no where near the point in life we always thought we would be at this age?

When I look back at my life to determine at which point I became disillusioned, I am brought back to my college days (aka. living the dream). I remember always believing I would be married by 25, I would be making good money to pay all my bills (because all full-time workers made bank), and I would be an independent career driven individual (Hah!).

Let me tell you, none of these items came true. I am not married, although I own a house with my boyfriend of 3 and a half years, I am at the bottom of the food chain when it comes to income (even with my Bachelor's Degree AND working full-time for 4 years), and I work in a cube farm - my life is Office Space.

It seems that every person I talk to at this age (mainly females) ALL had the same ideas of the future - but none became reality. What's up with this phenomenon?

I guess it's time for plan B.

Over and out - P
