The Amenities of LIfe

1. I feel old when professors ask me if I'm a graduate student.
2. I feel so incredibly young when I think about having to prepare for real life in one year unless I go straight on to graduate school.
3. I felt young when I considered living renting an apartment next year and realized I didn't want to because I'd have to clean my own toilet.
4. I feel mature when I order alcohol at dinner and the waiter doesn't ask to see my ID.
5. I feel old when I walk through a freshman dorm with the RA and pass a pack of girls reeking of the cheap vodka that fills their Disani water bottles.
6. I feel sexy when I go out on a Thursday night.
7. I feel thoroughly middle-aged when I have to think of ways to say what I want to my friends, without telling them why, so I avoid drama that will cause them to not be my friends. Even though they might not have been the best of friends in the first place.
8. I feel like a kid when I watch a Disney princess movie.
9. I feel rich when I walk into Target without a shopping list.
10. I feel optimistic.
