"The Trials and Tribulations of Trying to Adult"


Being an adult is hard. Nobody told me that when I was a kid. They said, "You can't wait to grow up! You'll have so much fun!" Well, guess what? They were lying.

Adulting is a never-ending cycle of bills, responsibilities, and trying not to burn your dinner. Here are some of the trials and tribulations of trying to adult:

  1. Doing laundry. It's never-ending. As soon as you think you've conquered the laundry pile, you turn around and there's another one waiting for you. And don't even get me started on folding.

  2. Grocery shopping. Why is it so hard to stick to a budget? You go in for a loaf of bread and come out with a cart full of junk food. And then you wonder why your bank account is always in the negative.

  3. Cooking. As a kid, I thought cooking was fun. Now I realize it's just a chore. Trying to make a meal that's both healthy and tasty is like trying to solve a Rubik's Cube blindfolded.

  4. Cleaning. I used to think my mom was crazy for cleaning the house every day. Now I understand. There's always something to clean, whether it's dishes, floors, or bathrooms. And just when you think you're done, someone spills something.

  5. Making appointments. As a kid, I never had to worry about making my own appointments. Now, it's a nightmare. Trying to schedule a doctor's appointment is like trying to get tickets to a Beyonce concert. You have to call a million times, wait on hold for hours, and then finally get an appointment three months from now.

But despite all these trials and tribulations, there are some perks to being an adult. For example, you can eat ice cream for dinner if you want. You can stay up as late as you want. And you can watch all the Disney movies you want without anyone judging you.

So, here's to all the adults out there. May your laundry be always be clean, your groceries be within budget, your meals be delicious, your house be spotless, and your appointments be easy to schedule. And if all else fails, just eat ice cream for dinner and watch Disney movies. It makes everything better.
