The Bloggers With The Most To Say

Hey 20sb-ers!

 

I wrote a post today asking "What to do with 25?" I turn 25 on Friday and although I always felt like it would be some milestone I'm wondering how much it really means. I'm half way through my 20s, or half way to 30 depending on how you look at it. For those of you who are 25+ how did turning 25 feel to you, was it just another birthday, or did it hold weight?

Honestly, age doesn't much concern me at all. I've never quite understood the whole quarter life crisis thing. I think everyone probably has a time in their life where they will consider their age, I just don't think iit's the same for everyone.

 

I don't care about age at all either. That's why I am in and out of jail.

I didn't have a quarterlife crisis or anything.  However, I did definitely reflect. To me, it was like "wow, I'm 25, look how far I've come."

 

This Christmas we watched a video we affectionately call "Christmas of '89" and it was weird to think I am am closer to my parents' ages in that video than I am to myself in the video.  I was 4, and my parents were 33.  It was a weird feeling.

I definitely have a video titled Christmas '89 as well.

After you turn 25, let me know. I've got another week before I hit it. ;)

 

I feel like my birthday isn't really something that makes me feel any older. I feel like I age more when it's not my actual birth date. Haha. I feel like I've been having a "quarter life crisis" since I graduated college.

 

I think the only thing different will be the ability to rent a car without having to pay some sort of other ridiculous fee for being 24 or younger.

lol, yea, the times at which I feel like I have grown up are never really connected to my birth date.
Like graduating, jobs, accomplishments... None of them ever happen on my birth date. Haha.
LOL, exactly!
I really don't feel like I'm that different at 25, though I assume I have matured a little bit since I first entered my 20s. I wonder if 30 will feel any different, more grown-up perhaps?
O.K. now I feel normal lol. I thought I was supposed to be feeling like this was a big growth point.
I'm turning 27 in the spring, and honestly...25 wasn't so bad, but I will say this - I did really start thinking about my age more (in fact, I started my blog the day after). I'm way more aware of other people my age and what they're doing with their lives. I think because for so long everyone your age is a peer - we're all in school together, we're all doing similar things - then one day someone has a baby, or gets engaged, or buys a house - and I think oh crap, I'm falling behind.

happy birthday! I'll be 27 in March...I didn't think too much about turning 25. I was working as an EMT at the time and was taking paramedic classes in college...but that didn't work out (I ended up leaving EMS after severe burn out)...so now I'm almost 27 and I'm really depressed because I have no idea what to do with my life now and I'm getting closer and closer to 30 lol

 

But I guess turning 25 wasn't a big deal to me because I had a plan for my life...but now I don't...but I guess it will come to me in time lol
