Your Favorite Annoying Teen

Maybe I'm still punk rock
Non-conformist
Not comfortable in the box I've slipped into
Angry as hell.

Fucking smartphones
Fucking babies
Fucking marriage
Fucking SHARING EVERYTHING
Fucking long hair
Fucking perfect nails
Fucking DO NOT PUT MY KNITTING NEEDLE BETWEEN YOUR FUCKING SWEATY SOCK TOES
Fucking job hunting
Fucking still finding myself

What the fuck is your 20s? The glory days? I'm not so sure about that. I'm a nearly characteristic Millenial after all.
Student debt
Low paying jobs
Not into selfies
Or texting
Or smartphones
But I like the internet
and I'm educated
almost to the point of annoyance.
I have this great understanding
and I'm not really sure what to do with it.
Knowledge saps my strength and fills me with wonder.

The reassuring thing is reading about Julia Child.
She was in an almost constant state of malcontent and abundant energy with nowhere to direct it that was satisfactory.
She found French cooking in her late thirties and was a kick ass boss from there.

There is this pressure in our culture to achieve,
the sooner,
the better,
the more.

Julia Child's story has reminded me to be patient, so I'll keep trying that with myself.

I need to write on here more often. I'm still the most honest here.

Sincerely,
~Lo

I have been writing/around on Journal Scape for over a decade now. Time flies! This journal chronicles my random thoughts, high moments and sometimes low, throughout high school, college, and now beyond, into the world of "adulthood", whatever that means.
