Mid twenties crisis

Yes, it’s a bit ridiculous I’m having a mid 20’s crisis. When I’m drinking wine and watching a bunch of TED talks, this is what usually happens. I wonder what I have done with my life so far and what I plan to do — the gap in between is the gift so they say, aka the present.

I remember in primary school, my grade 3 teacher made our entire class draw a timeline of our lives and map out all the milestones we’d foresee. At the age of 16, I would get my car license… and the age of 25, I would be married and a year later I would have my first child.

You guessed it, I failed my past. I didn’t get my full car license ’til I was 24 (but neither did I plan on getting my motorcycle license before then), am still single and most important of all I can’t remember what I had written for rest of the timeline… For once I am glad my poor memory has done me a favour.
