12 New Girl GIFs To Describe Life In Your Early 20s
M3ta1

After turning 23 at the beginning of this year, I have found myself more and more unsure of everything in life, This stage of my life seems very weird to me, it's like a transitional stage, but I'm not exactly sure what I'm transitioning into.

I have no clue what I want to with my college degree.

I feel more financially unstable working one full-time job than when I worked two part times.

I thought I would be in a serious relationship, ready for engagement, by now.

I thought I would have all the answers at this point in my life, but I just have more questions than ever.

Here are 12 gifs, from New Girl, that accurately describe my life in your early 20s.

1. Identity Crisis

You aren't in college anymore, you don't feel like a real adult, but you also feel way more mature than you did at 20.

2. When someone asks you what you want to do with your degree but you have no idea.

Some people know what they want to do for the rest of their lives and I truly envy them. I have no idea what I want to do with my expensive degree.

3. When you get a letter about your student loan payments and the suggested monthly payment is $600.

I'm barely making enough to pay rent and keep myself fed every month how am I supposed to have $600 every month with my entry level job.

4. When someone asks you how your date went

After you get home from a date with Brad from Tinder, you wonder how you're ever going to find a guy whose husband material.

5. After that terrible date, you start reflecting on your past love interests and begin to question your own judgment.

The answer is no. Chances are you just didn't realize what you really wanted or your actual worth.

6. When your idea of fun is staying in a drinking wine, talking, and watching movies; so your old party friends never want to hang out anymore.

7. When you visit home and an adult ask you how your life is going.

8. When you get those monthly bills and start to understand why your parents had their alcohol stash.

9. When you start to see the harsh reality of adulthood.

10. When you realize you actually have no clue about anything anymore.

11. When you call your mom for reassurance, feeling completely hopeless, and she makes you realize this is only the beginning of adulthood.

12. When you finally accept that this is where you are in life and it's totally fine for you to not everything figured out yet.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
