The 20s are full of emotions and experiences- some pleasant, others not so much. Here are 20 stages you go through when you're 20-something:
1. Excited
Life is just getting started and it is oh so exciting! The future is full of unknowns but you are eager and ready for anything.
2. Ambitious
You have everything going for you. The sky is the limit. Youre going to crush the whole college thing and change the world. Your head is full of dreams and goals and plans.
3. Crazy
Sometimes you are straight-up crazy. You stay up all night and survive on microwave meals and sugar. You go on last-minute road trips. You run from the cops and try things youve never done before. You get in trouble. But hey, youre 20-something and this is YOUR life.
4. Adventurous
You travel. You explore. You leave the country. You get the ultimate profile pic.
5. Obsessed
With boys. Duh.
6. Committed
You commit to a major, a program, or a job. This is your calling, this is where you belong, and you settle in for the long haul.
7. Driven
You work really, really hard: school. Job. Relationships. You try to please everyone and go, go, go.
8. Social
Your friends become family and you do everything with your squad. You will be part of each others lives forever.
9. Tired
Alright, youre exhausted. This lifestyle is catching up with you and youre tired of everything. You need a break from life but the load never seems to ease up.
10. Jaded
The enthusiasm you once felt is fading. Youre bored with life.
Its Friday night but all you want to do is stay home, eat dinner in bed, and watch TV.
11. Homesick
One day you wake up and dont want to be an adult anymore. Youre tired of being independent, and you just want to go back to the good old days when your parents paid the bills and made you food. Your bed was so comfy back then, and you were safe and taken care of.
12. Confused
Is this really what I want to do with my life? Why am I here? What is my purpose?
How do I get rich really fast?
What is wrong with men? Where do I find a good guy? Do I even want to get married?
Who am I?
DAHHHH.
13. Frustrated
All of your best laid plans are slipping through your fingers. Opportunities fall through, doors are closed, and dreams fall to pieces. This is not how you imagined your life going.
14. Realistic
Your goals and ambitions become more realistic. You still dream big but you better understand the complexities of life and what you can and cant control. Some things fall into place, others dont, and thats okay.
15. Content
Youre going to be alright. Your friends arent going anywhere and your family will stand by you forever. There is no need to fear.
16. Pleasantly surprised
New doors open and unexpected opportunities arise.
17. Certain
You make big life decisions and commitments. You know the significance of these choices, and you are sure.
18. Amazed
Your life is nothing like you imagined it, but somehow its better.
19. Grateful
You realize that all the detours and dead-ends led you somewhere beautiful. You are thankful for your trials and realize that God knew your destination all along. You get sentimental thinking about the people in your life that love and support you, and you feel grateful for all of the experiences that have shaped you into someone new. You have come a long way and you are proud.
20. Happy
Finally.
