moments that remind you that you are an adult

so today I was on the bus back from town when it starts to pour down and instead of "oh no I'm going to get wet" my first thought was "Nooooo I have washing on the line at home!!!" kind of made me realise that I am an adult lol


so I thought it could be "fun" to list/discuss those moments that remind us/make us realise that we are adults now

lol these made me laugh.
Hmm I guess mine would be when my mom keeps telling me she wants grandchildren. I mean I am not even considering getting married at this point so having her point out that all my friends are married and have children makes me realize I really am an adult even though I act like a kid.



“What if I'm so broken I can never do something as
basic as feed myself? Do you realize how twisted
that is? It amazes me sometimes that humans still
exist. We're just animals, after all. And how can an
animal get so removed from nature that it loses the
instinct to keep itself alive?”

i think this also!!

ive thought of another one, when i listen to conversations amongst school kids on the bus, im like, wow, did i really think those things were so important!

and the fact that nerds are cool nowadays in schools. no longer to be made fun of. (probably because they are capable of hacking fb
accounts) makes me feel old

When you would rather have a cup of tea, a chat with a friend and a movie than go on a night out...

& when you're going on a trip with some older friends and they plan to be in the club before 10pm! I don't think I've ever been in a club at that time before!

Complaining about the kids being silly in the street outside and making a lot of noise.
Talking to my Mom about water rates.
Getting excited about Tesco clubcard coupons.
Assessing days as either good or bad days to dry washing outside.
Being concerned at the amount of people who break the speed limit on our street because there's a school near by.

I feel like I've aged 20 years since I moved out of home about two years ago
