I turn 26 in a couple of months. Shudder. Knot in my stomach. Full-on antsy. I feel completely ancient. And inadequate. I am not performing up to par, no doubt about that. Tick-tock, less than three months to the date. Fingers crossed that will be enough time to accomplish all the unachieved goals on my things-to-do-before-I-reach-the-big-two-six-list.
More than ever I feel the pressure to expedite my growing up process. Recurring topics floating in my head as of late: Career, Savings, Stability, Future. I find myself frequenting forums on investments and mutual funds now. Well, I still allow myself to be a retard sometimes, but my better sense keeps reminding me to stay on adult mode. Better Sense appears to be constantly whipped by Retarded Side though.

Don't do the 100-things-to-do-before-I'm-too-old thing. It will just make you feel old because you feel there's a deadline.
When I hit 23 I began panicking that I was getting older without doing anything substantial in my life. Looking back, I know now it was absolutely insane of me to think I was old at 23. So I've stopped counting. 26 is young, Nina. And you've done more than the rest of us combined. (",)
