I’m Feeling 25

Updated on Posted on

I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling….25? It’s finally here- the day I turn a quarter-of-a-century. While I still may look like an 18-year old, I swear that I’m actually now, officially in my “mid-twenties”. Yikes. While I can drone on and on about how getting older stinks (as well as having a birthday in the brutal cold winter and right around Valentine’s Day), I thought instead I’d focus on a few big things that happened during my 24th year, as well as a few goals for 25.

At age 24 I…

  • moved out of my parent’s house and into a new apartment in a new state with my boyfriend
  • got a new job that I’m very passionate about and genuinely enjoy going to each day
  • adopted a sweet little kitten that I can’t imagine living without
  • took on two freelance writing clients + had my writing featured on a few cool websites
  • worked on my mental health to become a healthier, happier person

For 25 I hope to…

  • spend more time reading
  • make new friends (which is hard as a 20-something in a relationship)
  • finally reach my goal weight (almost there!)
  • take on a few new side business ventures
  • start writing my book

Let’s face it, there are a variety of terrible reality TV shows out there. Sure, I enjoyed “The Real World” and “American Idol” the first few seasons, but some of these shows are just too ridiculous for my taste. One of these shows is “The Bachelor”, and its ill-fated counterparts, “The Bachelorette” and “The Bachelor…

Want to hear something that sucks? I don’t get HBO. Never have. Probably never will (at least while I’m still living at home). I guess it doesn’t suck that much since I get pretty much every other channel, but sometimes I miss out on some good movies and series. One of the series I was…

  29. Happy birthday, Rachel! I loved my 25th, but for some reason it was my 26th that gave me an overwhelming sense of how old I’m getting. It’s probably that downhill roll to 30 freaking me out? haha. Enjoy your day! 🙂
