The Early 20's Defined


Being 22/23 years old means that feeling that if you sleep for one minute, life will pass you by and leave you in the dust. This age is both thrilling and exhausting. Just the mere idea of being alive is a miracle, just the mere thought of life pumps even more life into your veins, and makes you want to jump up and make your voice heard throughout the infinite corners of the world which in your 23-year-old mind is teeming with life and possibilities of places to go and people to meet and adventures to stumble into. You wonder how anyone can waste a single minute doing this boring thing called “sleep”, in which your eyes are closed and your body is still. But eventually, you learn that sleep is important, rejuvenating, and puts you in a better mood during your daily tasks, and that opportunities to do it can be hard to come by. Realizing this, you begin to treasure every one of these chances to get some...zzz's I mean. This is the age of 24. I am 24! I love love love sleeping. But it is 3:52 am- why am I awake? Good MORNING, WORLD!
