Growing up

I am excited to be finished school and start working in the advertising and marketing industry, however I am nervous at the same time.

For a long time now I have been so excited to grow up and buy a house and find a job and start making money.

I am tired of living at home and sharing common space with my parents. I am excited to move out and be on my own.

Since December, I have been trying to network and search for a job, not realizing how hard it is to get my foot in the door.

I’ve always been excited to grow up, but in the last few weeks I’ve been somewhat nervous to take on so many responsibilities. It’s almost like I’m nervous to fail. I’ve lived with a bunch of roommates before in an apartment at university but buying a house isn’t the same. My parents were always there to support me with whatever I needed at university. This time, I will be on my own. There’s a lot of pressure and stress that comes with growing up. I guess I will never truly be ready. My only choice is to just jump and hope that I land on my own two feet.

I know my parents will still do their best to support me and help me out.

But first things first, I need to get a job so that I’m able to support myself financially.
