Feeling Old

[ilovemyglo]

It's funny I stepped on a scale and it read 125 and I freaked- but I am dealing with that now.

I have a good job and a stable life.
I am also freaking about going to get my MBA. There are a few select schools I am going to apply to (Stanford, NYU, Northwestern, UCLA, etc.) and these are all VERY competitive. What kills me is many of these places want 5 years work experience and I am thinking DEAR GOD! Already! I've already been out of school THAT LONG! WTF!

I also had to laugh because in less than 3 years I will be attending my high school's 10 year reunion. The trips me out.

There are some pluses to being 25.
Dating is a lot more fun and easier. I know what I want in a partner and now know I don't need to settle just for the sake of settling. I'd rather be single.
And the men I date are stable, intelligent, and have confidence- they aren't worried about where they are going in life or what they want. They've already made those decisions and are now achieving their dreams.

Eh- I know it will get better/worse/better. Having a kid would REALLY freak me out.
Right now I am just tripping on "dear God I hope my 401 K does okay!" and "Bastards, don't use up my social security!" and I never thought I would EVER say "Uncle Sam get your grubby fingers off my damn money!".


Ah- the joys of "the real world".
