I miss the Beforetimes

Like, if I had known that the world was going to get like this, I would have really cut loose in college

Instead I studied like a nerd and got my degree because I had a five year plan and everything

I should have listened to that cool old guy at the bus stop who told me to enjoy life and not worry about school so much

    Grass is always greener my friend. I'm 45 and just starting my first "real job". I've had a lot of fun, but I'm not super stoked to be looking at starting a career while my friends ponder retirement.

    It's rough to see how many opportunities are going away with time. It's shitty too because a lot of that pressure to not live life came from previous generations who are now saying we should've majored in x or just invested in something.

    I don't regret my education so much, but I do regret believing in support systems that would be there once I finished.
