[in-my-sad-girl-era]

I too liked to make fun of millennial women (I was born at the end of the 1990s so i never truly identified as one), I liked memes and tweets making fun of privileged white girls in their 20s and the stereotypes they portrayed.

Until I became one.

I turned 25 and Jesus Christ it all started to make so much sense. It’s true what they say about your frontal lobe, everything is so much clearer after you turn 25, a lot of the doubts, insecurities, fears, confusions just disappeared or answered themselves. And new ones have appeared, but at least I’m aware of them now.

I re-discovered and fell in love with Lorde, Lana del Rey, boygenius, and Taylor Swift.

I feel so seen and moved by Greta Gerwig's work as an artist and director.

I want to read Sylvia Plath and write a journal.

I want to rewatch Girls and not hate on Lena Dunham.

I drink tea and do Pilates.

I use less makeup but always carry a lipstick.

I feel lost and confused about my career.

I value friendships more and mourn when I lose one.

I’m obsessed with Fleabag and think about her A LOT.

I cry over love and watch rom-coms just to feel something.
