Well, you're all grown up. You're old enough to drink, old enough to have a credit card, and old enough to live in a one-bedroom apartment that you spent all your money on decorating, so now you live on rice. A quarter-life crisis can be described as that "when will my life begin?" stage when you're too far into college to be considered a teen and too far away from graduation to feel as if your life has finally begun.
1. You get anxious when being around family members on holidays.
"What are you majoring in?" "Does that pay well?" "When are you going to get married?" are just a few questions you can already hear being thrown your way.
2. You glare at your pet in the morning before your 8 a.m. class, thinking, "God, I wish I had your life."
3. Your phone shuffles to songs from the early 2000s on purpose to make you cry hysterically in the library while your tears hit the pages of your unfinished term paper.
4. You're reading this right now because you saw "Quarter-Life Crisis" and thought, "Yeah, that sounds about right."
5. "When is life going to start feeling like it's supposed to?" is something you ask yourself and your friends every day.
6. "How do I do taxes?" you exclaim to your mother over the phone.
7. You look at your manager and pray that isn't you when you graduate.
8. You are so over school, you honestly would rather work 9 to 5 in an office somewhere instead.
9. You are also so over school that you watch Netflix all week and ask yourself, "Employers won't care about my GPA, will they?"
10. You forget to empty out your vacuum cleaner.
11. You don't know how to change a water filter in your fridge.
12. Or how to clean your drain.
13. Or fix your toilet when you can't afford a plumber.
14. Or what to do when your lights go out.
15. Your conversations have started to sound more and more like a middle aged woman wanting to re-decorate her house, and it startles you.
16. You 99 percent just want your mom.
