Whenever I think about that philosophical question, I always remind myself that back then my life was no less difficult as it is today and the only difference being the set of problems changes over time. I have a lot of bills to pay every month but in terms of self-actualization and leading an independent life, I'm probably leading a better life. I'm 27 and one problem with this section of life is everyone goes off their separate ways; e.g. friends get married, buy houses, and that usually spells "too busy" to hang out with me; and there's the thing about working at the office becoming all too consuming. But then I think about how I meet new people and I can control over my career.

I had a rough childhood, in terms of a speech/learning disability, and so I never really had the standard carefee childhood, but I do have to say life has been improving and I look forward to the future. They say your 30's are the best years and I look forward to seeing how that pans out.

Oh My High Reviewed by Oh My High on . Being grown up in response to the "what was it like growing up" thread of course... are you happy with your life now, or would you rather be back then? how is your life now compared to back then? then it was carefree, but unbelievably life is simpler now for me... while i do miss my childhood i think i'd rather be here now, rather than then..
