Confessions of a 26 Year old

No shame in my game, what is magical in my life currently? Even in my old age I'm not afraid to tell you:

  • I am currently obsessed with Justin Bieber's Christmas Album. I know Christmas is over but I don't care. If you haven't heard it you need to. 
  • I rocked skinny jeans for the first and maybe the last time on Christmas Eve. How did I know I was too old for my outfit? The 19 year olds that helped me set-up had a sleepover and showed up  to my house the night before with the same outfit as me. 
  • I might be too old for Skinny jeans but I'm still too young to cook Christmas Dinner. We ate all day and I didn't cook a thing on Christmas...awesome!
  • Giving is one of my favorite things to do. My family gave instead of receiving this Christmas, that's a feeling you can't buy you should try it.
  •  I graduated last week with out a single student loan as a married homeowner. The haters in my life acted like it was such a huge deal to them that I was still in school ( I obviously would have liked to finish a long time ago) and have greeted me with "are you done with school yet?"for the past 5 years. Deep down every time they asked me that question I had a huge smile on my face because these are the people in my life with the most debt and who I learned years ago don't "get it". I pray for them to meet Jesus and Dave Ramsey. 
  • I didn't walk at graduation for multiple reasons. 
    • It was the Saturday before Christmas and I spent the day with people I love. 
    • It costs about what we spend a month on groceries to participate and I'm stingy with my grocery budget. 
    • I can't name a single person I graduated with. 
    • Graduation ceremonies are boring and we all know I can't sit still.

  2. You are not too old for skinny jeans. I wear them all the time with all kinds of boots and I am old enough to be your Mom. (FYI - jeggings are way more comfortable than skinny jeans)

    Congratulations on your graduation. I am very happy for you. No more papers or exams unless you decide to get a MBA!

    Sorry I didn't see you on Christmas. We attended at 3 and loved every minute of it. The best ever!

    Happy New Year!!! Karen
