Peter Pan Syndrome
Did anyone ever see the old Merrie Martin Peter Pan? You know the song "I won't grow up"? That's my dream. I don't like growing up-- and I don't like other people growing up. Having to worry about life stinks. The thing that triggered this is a conversation I had with my Best Friend. She's dating a guy pretty seriously and it's a huge problem for me. I don't know why. It's like I'm super jealous... So I just decided today I want to be 13 again. Where I could do what I wanted (I wasn't a bad kid so what I wanted to do was just raise Guide Dog Puppies, hang out with friends, and just be 13), there were no boys to get in the way- they were all just crushes, and if I had to do something- my mom would just tell me to do it and that was the end. When I was little I used to tell my mom I never wanted to grow up-- well... I think it's happening... If anyone learns how to time travel let me know :)

*sigh* I feel that way sometimes too, and then I remember that I'd have to eat what my parents told me to, have to go where they went, have to wait on them to p/u or d/o,.....nah, I'll stay grown up! lol
Ugh, that's been hugely stressing me out lately. WHY do people keep asking me what I want to do after my undergrad?? I don't KNOW! Grad school? Take a year off? Job?
Also, balancing friends and a boyfriend is a bummer.
Growing up sucks.
