Annnnd then you get into the real world and realize it doesn't work that way.

I just want to look kids who think this way in the eye and say, "you will never have more freedom than you do now. When you finish school and begin working, most of your time and energy will be chipped away. You will go weeks, sometimes months, without seeing your friends. You will find yourself wanting to rest rather than go on adventures. When considering travel, you will be consumed with thoughts of expenses and logistics, and will talk yourself out of going more often than not. Within a few years, you will long for the days when your parents paid for everything and your only concern was finishing your homework. You will long for it."



(Not that being an adult is really all that bad. But still. You lose something when you grow up, and you spend your childhood convinced that you'll only gain).

Yeeep. So much this.

School kids get the summer off. The whole summer! I get 10 holiday days a year and two weeks of vacation/sick days.

Oh god this. You don't know how much I wish I still had days where I had like, 4 excused absences that I can take on ANY day of the week. Now? I have to pick which days I want off and since I've only been working at my current job for not even a year and a half yet, I can't get fucking Fridays off, at all. The people who have 15 to 30 years on me can get them willy nilly, but me? Nope. So that means my con going days are pretty much shot. Not to mention, as you said, the whole expenses thing comes up.

I wanted to go to our local con this year, but looking at my latest pay check that week, the rent coming up the next week and how it's usually almost $60 just to get in the door, never mind going to buy food or if you wanted to buy things in the dealer room, I ended up saying fuck it cause it wasn't worth it to go. and I've been going for the last 8-9 years...

I feel like that a lot, and then feel bitter and old afterwards. I don't like having a desire to tell people life stinks!
