I know a lot of you are older than I am so you might not have a lot of sympathy.
I'm turning 30 in August and I'm having a very hard time dealing with it.
It just seems un-natural, I don't feel older than 25 , as for the way I look most people say I look around 23!
Most of the last decade is a blur, after graduating at 18, I was so exhausted from going to a High School for "Gifted Students" (that included a lot of college level courses) I wasted so much time doing nothing afterwords, for years!
Only for the past few years have I been living my life to the fullest, now I go on vacations, see plays, Operas, ballets, explore all the city (I live in New York City) has to offer.
I've recently begun college at 29! And because I want a job in the medical field it's going to take me at least 6 years. I have so much in common with my classmates who are in their early 20's.
I get along with people my age, but they have so many more accomplishments than me.
I don't know what to do?
I don't: feel 30, look 30 and I certaintly don't want to be 30.
I feel pathetic.
What do you think?
