the more i sit around, the more i think about how i am no longer 14 and i cant help remembering "lorde's letter to adolescence" more specifically when she says "All my life I’ve been obsessed with adolescence, drunk on it. Even when I was little, I knew that teenagers sparkled. I knew they knew something children didn’t know, and adults ended up forgetting." and i just resonate with it so much. i still feel so young and i know im still basically just a kid, but i also cant help but feel withdrawn due to being in the weird space of juvenile transitioning to full formed adult.
im only 18 and i dont know anything, but when i was 17 i felt like i knew everything and its strange. theres so much yearning for when i was so young, even though i was miserable, and yet i still want so badly to understand the secrets of adulthood.
maybe one day ill become more adjusted to being a person but for right now i am still 14 going on 25.

exiting teenagehood is scary. you have no idea where your life is going. it gets better in your mid 20s (25 here), and to be honest at this age, 30s looks like one of the more optimistic ages.
yess ive seen so many people (mostly online) complaing abt how chaotic being in ur 20s is and i cant wait to be 30 it def seems more stable than right now lol

oh for sure - i think the fact that by that point it's more likely you'll have a steady job, the relationships and friendships you maintain tend to be more selective and serious due to the less time you have, so then you have a stronger entourage. I can't wait to turn 30 ngl. just do what you can while you're young to give your 30yo self the good life they deserve!
