I always thought that one day I'd feel like an adult as if it would happen over night. For a while now I've been living with my boyfriend Yorick and I just thought when I walked through the front door how I don't feel how I thought I would, living out of home with my boyfriend and coming home after work. I don't know what I was expecting but definitely a noticeable change. I feel so comfortable living out of home with Yorick as we have a home together. I'm often visiting my childhood home to have dinner with my parents and younger sister so I know I'm safe and loved no matter where I am. It's a nice feeling. Maybe I haven't reached what kind of adulthood I'm thinking of. I imagine myself with a full-time, stable job, in the process of building a house and having to be very adult and responsible. I'm definitely not there yet so maybe once I am I'll feel like a real adult. Then again, maybe that's not such a great thing as I don't want to lose my sense of who I am, and maybe that's not who I am. I like thinking about the future: travelling lots, getting married to Yorick, building a house, having babies! I'm excited about all of it. Sometimes I'm so excited that I want it now but I know I can't have it now, especially marriage and babies. One day it'll happen and it'll be right. I'm just happy with the way things are now.
