1. You Start To Budget

Before, you could justify dropping money on things like concerts, sporting events, spontaneous road trips, and even shopping sprees. Now, you find yourself second-guessing every single purchase you make. I mean, do you really need to eat this week?

2. All Nighters Keep Getting Harder

In your early teens you could pull all-nighters all the time with little to no repercussions, but now that you're twenty-something you basically already live on caffeine. Every hour of sleep matters, and a night without could basically do you in for the next month.

3. Your Friends Keep Getting Married...

With what seems like every other notification being an engagement announcement, not only are more and more of your friends getting married they're also having babies. What's even weirder is they're excited about it! Don't worry, though, with every year that passes the necessary, "Congratulations!" instead of "Oh, s***" slides off the tongue a little easier.

4. You Call Your Parents... A Lot

After all those years of them embarrassing you, who knew you'd miss them so much? Sure, you've moved away, gone to school, get a job, but you're not really an adult yet. Whether you admit it or not, you still need guidance, and when something goes wrong (or right), your parents will be the first person you call.

5. Large Friend Groups Don't Matter

At this stage in life, as cliche as it may sound, you've found out who your real friends are. Having a large group of people just isn't important anymore. You realize that life happens, and its hard to stay in touch with anyone, let alone mediocre friends. Instead, you truly value the friendships you do have and maintain, because as busy as life gets, you know that those who stick around truly care.

6. You Stop Stressing... Sort Of

OK, this one is kind of a lie, because let's be real you're ALWAYS stressed....just about different stuff. At this stage in the game you've pretty much figured out who you are, and you don't care if someone doesn't like you.

You've learned not to sweat the small stuff in life. Instead, you've started sweating the big stuff, because graduate school, internships, jobs, and the real world are all uncomfortably close. They're coming and you are SO NOT prepared. (Initiate internal screaming.)

7. You Enjoy Life

As stressful, scary, and confusing as your 20s may be, they're also some of the best years of your life. It's the last time you're going to be young enough to get away with doing some arguably stupid things and old enough to realize it. You learn to let go and just live a little. After all, you'll only be 20 something once.
