I think the reason why twentysomethings are so fixated on age is because we feel a pressure to be a certain way at 23, at 25, at 29. There are all of these invisible deadlines with our careers and with love and drinking and drugs. I can’t do coke at 25. I need to be in a LTR at 27. I can’t vomit from drinking at 26. I just can’t! We feel so much guilt for essentially acting our age and making mistakes. We’re obsessed with this idea of being domesticated and having our shit together. It’s kind of sad actually because I don’t think we ever fully get a chance to enjoy our youth. We’re so concerned about doing things “the right way” that we lose any sense of pleasure in doing things the wrong way. Youth may be truly wasted on the young.

A Little Tip:

Last night I marbled* my toe nails. That is not a good idea. My nails look like crap.

*For those of you that don’t know what marbling is: it is where you get a bowl of water and then put a couple of drops of nail polish in it and swirl it around with a toothpick and then stick your nail in it and it looks like your nail polish is marbled. Good for fingernails, ugly for toenails.
