"lol i’m the same age as you (born in october too!) and i still feel 23-24 because of the pandemic the age dysphoria (for lack of a better word) is SO real" - IT IS honestly and I feel so much more dependent than I did Pre-pandemic? Like I go... #tellonym tellonym.me/cataclymicevie…
Like I think the benefit of the pandemic is I’ve had so much time to write and cultivate that skill, but it’s not…a career? As much as I would want it to be.
And it’s not like I did nothing, I still did volunteer work and tutoring, but I ended up financially dependent for the first time since I was a teenager because I had a choice between taking on private student loan debt or spending my savings, and I spent my savings.
I’m lucky enough that I have a family that is willing to help me (letting me live with them while I study for the bar, cooking food for me to put in my freezer while I’m at school, etc), but if I didn’t I probably would’ve been forced to drop out. LOTS of people in my program did
Idk it’s rambling but it’s just interesting how the pandemic has kind of frozen a lot of us in time, unable to move forward even years later
