Hey everyone! Sorry I’ve been away from the advice desk recently. I have received some good questions while I’ve been gone but I just want you all to know: I’m here for you! Come to the #1 advice column on the internet. I’m a Libra, therefore I believe in balance. I give good advice for that very reason! 😉
Today we have a question from an anonymous person, and might I add, this was quite a difficult question to answer. Here goes.
Dear Lizzy,
How to make growing up/being an adult not suck so much?

Anonymous,
I didn’t like growing up. Being an adult isn’t much fun either. I have to constantly think one step further than I am currently on. Then, I feel the anxiety that I actually am 2 steps behind. My power bill is due today. Something like $21.50 for my share. It isn’t too bad, but if I don’t pay it today, then my service will be disconnected. So, I figure I could call, yeah sure. I will call after I write this. I didn’t feel like calling yesterday. I’m not exactly one step ahead when it comes to paying my bills. I’m like, one step behind. This isn’t helping very much, huh.
Ways to make being an adult easier: Enjoy eating cereal – I promise this is one great way to have a youthful spirit at the age of 25. I eat a bowl of cereal almost every day. I take it with a vitamin – that’s another part of growing up that sucks. People think you have to take vitamins that are like horse pills, but NO! There are gummy vitamins for adults too! Ok. I’m realizing that this advice doesn’t make your adult life EASIER, just a little bit more fun, relieving the fact that you’re an adult.
There’s nothing to really make being an adult easier. Despite my power bill being due today, I still have some pretty awesome things that remind me that life isn’t so bad. I have wonderful friends (like you!) asking me questions, I have a cool bag of kush, and I have a box of French Toast Crunch in my fridge. I have great music to listen to, and I appreciate everything in my surroundings, no matter how childish and novelty or how antique and handmade it can be.
I guess the number one tip I have is: Don’t think about being an adult. You will feel incredible. For more advice about being the most incredible person you can be, e-mail me at liz@spf420.com
