be yourself

something i've been thinking about the last few days now.. do we really act our age? somehow some of us always seem to do things that befit people younger than us, and some people act more mature than their tender years. when i was in undergrad, i was older than most of my buddies, and always took the driving seat as such. somehow ever since i joined grad school and my current group of friends, i was always gonna be the younger 'un..

thing is, i find myself where i am now, 27 and done with grad school.. and i really feel i should be asking some more pertinent questions, making some more important decisions, and definitely taking more responsibility for my actions. it's all easy to think that i'm still in college and it's all good, but i don't wanna be stuck in that mindset. i think i am ready to take the next step, and start thinking beyond college, and thinking of a life more than where to drink tonight, which beer is better, and why did i stop doing pot.

it's time to grow up, and act my age.
