Life - Season One

I'm the type of person who often compares themselves to television and movie characters, always thinking "wow, i know someone just like that" or "hey, that's stuff i like to do!" or if you wanna get philosophical "hm, i wonder what i would do in that situation". And recently i've been doing a lot of that for sitcoms, you know, the ones based around a group of friends hanging out and just going about their lives. Stuff like Friends or How I Met Your Mother, except i've only been watching stuff from season one, because i feel like that's the stuff i relate to now. I'm only a few months away from entering my 20s, and i currently live away from home which gives me that taste of freedom of getting to do whatever you want, and really wanna do is go the pub with my friends, hangout and complain about life...which is exactly what they do in the first season of shows like Friends and How I Met Your Mother. It's this awkward phase where you have all the energy and freedom to do whatever you want, but usually lacking in the time or money, so you always do small stuff like hanging out at a friends place, except this time you don't have to ask for permission and you can stay there for as long as you want.

I feel like your life doesn't really begin until you're in your 20s because up until then, you still have other people making important decisions for you and supporting you, once you're in your 20s, you have control over what you do, where you work, how you spend your money, and i'm just on the verge of that to the point where i can taste it, i see myself in the characters of those multi-camera sitcoms and I realise that i do what they do and i'm both excited and dreading that season of life because it has freedom and power but it also has effort and responsibility...Holy crap Spider-Man was right!
