Sorry, this is pretty long…
I recently started a new job, which I really like, and one of the girls I work with has done so much with her life so far — she’s graduated from High School, has gone on to get her degree in Cosmetology, has gone to California and went to a fashion school, is planning on getting married and moving to California, she’s the manager already at the store I work at AND she’s 20 going on 21! Wtf?! She said she finish High School early but it just made me take a step back and look at my life and all I have and HAVEN’T accomplished and it just totally made me feel like crap.
My sister is the same way, she’s planning on doing a PSEO (Post Secondary Education, basically going to college while you’re in High School so you’re graduating from High School while getting credits for college…which I did, but ended up flunking the classes) program and is going to move out at 16. I’m still living at home and have only moved out once, for 4 months, and ended up moving back in the end obviously.
I just feel so behind everybody else… Is it just me thinking like this or am I really turning into an unaccomplished loser? And either way, what can I do to really get myself out there and accomplish things… Like I want to be a manager at the store I’m working at and it seems impossible to move up right now. I just don’t know what to do right now really.
