http://www.statenews.com I celebrated my 22nd birthday Oct. 27. Another almost memorable night at the bar, filled with my closest friends, good music and a bit of tequila. When I awoke the following morning, I realized the truth about my birthday. en-us Gryphon 2.2.3b-tsn (woodward)/Foundry5 Mon, 09 Nov 2009 14:54:31 -0500 webmaster@statenews.com http://www.statenews.com/index.php/comment/view/48192 Shes forgetting an important one.

You can actually own (and pay for) a brand new car – AND, carry full insurance on it. You can pay for a vacation without having to go into serious debt. You don’t have to get falling down drunk to have had a good time. You no longer worry about what others think about what you have (or don’t have); you’re perfectly happy with things as they are. You have real friends that appreciate you for you – they’re not just drinking buddies of whom you have nothing in common with. It’s not the end of the world; it’s just hard for you younger adults to grow up and accept life out there after college. Don’t worry – happens to everyone; you’ll get over it.
