I'm reposting my quarter-life crisis entry about 3 years ago. Don't ask me why I chose this to be the one to post today, I don't have any other entries as proper as this one. Obviously things have changed, I'm at the end of my being in the mid-20's range.
I'm actually not having the whole quarter-life crisis thing. But there are certain things that I am realizing now, that I haven't before. There really is no crisis. I'm not having a moment of clarity. I just don't have anything of sense to post these days.
**********
Don't get me wrong here... Im not being desperate or disheartened or depressed... Its just that Ive noticed lately that my life's been changing... I haven't had the time to reflect on whether Ive changed for the better or the worse, but I know that there are some things that I don't do anymore...
My tv viewing habit (which I REALLY love) has been radically changed... Actually, I don't have one anymore... I blame my work for that... Darn stupid schedule... Suddenly tv shows aren't that interesting to me... Gone were the days when I go gaga over Katie Holmes on Dawson's Creek... I haven't been able to follow the shows that i really like... Although some of them lost the magic and realism that's made me an avid fan (ie 24, Alias, Survivor and Smallville)... Now, I find myself watching National Geographic, Discovery and Donald Trump's Apprentice...
My radio's a bit soft now... Back when i was in high school and college, I've been a fan of Magic 89.9... I'd join contests... Religiously follow their countdowns and just try to be updated on the latest songs... But now, I find their songs uninteresting and loud... Im more mellow... I rarely watch MTV (I feel Im not one of their target market anymore)...
Being single is cool now... When before, I was like desperate to be in a relationship, now I have all the reasons to say being single is one of the best things anyone could ever be... I know having a partner has its perks, but you could still be alone but not lonely... Anyway, i guess its a sign of maturity...
Im not having a crisis... yet!!! Im not nearing my thirties (thank God!)... Still a few more years for that...But anyway I think im armed and ready to face whatever adulthood has to put in front of me... Ive got the guts and the balls for a little crisis management...
