QUARTERLIFE CRISIS
A Quartertlife crisis is totally real, and it's totally real that I am going through one. I know this due to that fact that I can say yes to nearly all of these questions:
You feel a lot of pressure and expectations to do, have or be something.
You often feel unmotivated, directionless or passionless.
You don’t know what you want to do with your life or you know what you want to do, but can’t seem to make a living at it.
You feel pressure to get your adult life in order and plan your future.
You feel entitled to or long for a life much grander than the one you are living.
You are stressed out by choices that will seemingly affect the rest of your life.
You are dealing with disappointment or confusion because something did not turn out like you thought it would.
A breakup, romantic relationship, or lack of one is causing suffering.
You are living at home with mom and dad.
You compare yourself to other people your age and feel like you don’t measure up.
You feel financially unstable.
Your self-esteem could use an upgrade.
You constantly think about the future, resulting in anxiety.
Your life is not at all turning out like you had planned.
I feel relieved that I have been officially diagnosed, and that now I have a legitimate excuse for why my behavior has been totally wack. You do as well right? Read the rest of the article and began to solve all your problems here.

ISN'T THIS GREAT?
I am super lucky that I can take a nap and actually fall asleep anywhere, at anytime. Hospital floors, break rooms, parks, I have NAPPED. So, isn't this little portable sleeping pod great? I am not sure how you breathe, and it could be rather embarrassing to wear, but once you get past those factors, this could surely make all my nap dreams come true.

FIRST KISS
First Kiss is a zine devoted solely to the raging-hormones, pounding of pulses, and all around awkwardness of the adolescent first kiss.
Involving a Buick, an all you can eat buffet at Sizzler's, and the state capitol building, fingers crossed the magazine will except my first kiss story for their next issue.
