Katie, 22

Did you know the characters in the sitcom “Friends” were all supposed to be in their twenties?

“Friends follows the lives of six friends in their mid-twenties”. Woah. Feeling insecure now?

If you’re like me, you thought you old pals Rachel, Ross and Joey were in their early thirties. You know- an apartment in Manhattan, an accomplished chef, a paleontologist, and full-time office worker (okay, maybe relatable), a masseuse and an actor. Rachel’s occupation as a waitress sort of made sense, except for the marriage proposal from a dentist.

Very few twenty-somethings of my generation (my generation: people who watched Saved by the Bell) are this accomplished in life. From what I’ve seen, the majority are very unsure about what career they want to pursue. And definitely, no one wants to marry us. Face it, you have no money, are probably just losing your acne, and periodically live with your parents. In 2011, the teen years leak into the twenties and it’s a blurry, damn mess.
