Is it socially acceptable to be 25 and looking at photos of other peoples houses, weddings, babies thinking “thank God that’s not me..”??
Does that somehow offend the ones with the houses, weddings and babies? I mean it’s not bad things to have…and it’s on my list too, it’s just that it’s so far down the list that I haven’t gotten to that page yet..I need to flip a few pages first..I might even have to go back a few in case I missed something. I mean, what happens the day your kid wants to know the meaning of all the stuff on a certain page and you can’t answer because you haven’t read it…
I don’t own a house (or apartment, or any other shape/form you can live in)
I don’t own a car (or even I bicycle…the one I got when I was 12 and still exists somewhere does not count.)
I don’t make a lot of money
I don’t have a career (hence the not making a lot of money…)
I don’t have a dog - yes, I think it must be on the ‘check list’ for being a grown up
(By the way I stopped growing in primary school, so not sure what the definition of ‘grown up’ is..)
I don’t have enough clothes to fill a wardrobe (due to stupid 20kg limit on planes…)
But then again..how many do you know that can fit most of their belongings in one backpack..yup, just me. P.S. It doesn’t count if you’re a guy…meaning not scando guys..meaning..like..you know…..MEN.
I don’t have a holiday house (I guess that’s a given ..)
I don’t own any furniture (again, stupid 20 kg rule..)
BUT,
I do have the freedom to get on the next plane..
and one day in not too long I’ll get to that scary page in the book.
The one with the house and stuff…
