1) You're now a college graduate.
~Like...what?! Nobody ever really thinks past college. What are you supposed to do now?
~Isn't this where marriage, kids, all that good junk comes in? No?.... Okay. Good to know.
2) You live on your own in the middle of Dallas.
~Oh I have to lock my door every time I come in and out?
~Wait...what... You're telling me I have to pay more if I leave my air conditioning on? I live in Texas, the hottest place on earth! Guess I'll just sweat in my sleep. No big deal.
~Wait...what... You're telling me I have to pay more if I leave my air conditioning on? I live in Texas, the hottest place on earth! Guess I'll just sweat in my sleep. No big deal.
3) You have a big girl job.
~Big girl job: where one must be on time every day, cannot wear anything but professional clothing, must work 8-5 and must actually drive (in traffic) to work each morning.
** BUT YOU'RE MAKING THOSE BIG BUCKS!** (to help you out with #2)
4) You have your own (and pay for your own) health/life insurance.
~"Who would you like to be your first beneficiary? You know, the person that gets everything if you die."... Listen here you morbid freaks, I'm not going anytime soon so get off my back. Rude.
~P.S. Your health insurance just comes right out of your paycheck. Blessings. (cough not cough)
5) Two words: Retirement Fund.
~Let's please take a moment to look how the economy is doing..........Yeah. Retirement is not happening for another 198 years for me so why must you insist taking this out of my paycheck too?
6) Taxes.
~Enough said.
7) Your friends are having babies...on purpose!
~No. No. No. NO. Stop that! Inappropriate.
8) You don't have a room at home anymore.
~Oh you want to go home to visit your parents? Great. Hope you like sleeping on the couch.
Growing up is no joke, y'all. If you still have time, SOAK UP NOT HAVING RESPONSIBILITY. If you're out in the real world like me, here's a high five. Time to put our big girl britches on and show the world what we're about. (Having fun, that's what we're about.)
