Obligatory Birthday Post
Yoyo so I am unofficially 20 freaking years old now. Two decades since my birth. Two decades since a dinosaur (a stegosaurus to be exact) and a wizard were hanging out, smoking weed and decided HEY LET’S MAKE A HUMAN LOLOL. Twenty long years since that dinosaur and wizard got out their junior chemistry set and combined tofu, rainbows, awesomeness and the blood of a hipster (they killed him to get that blood, btw). They drew a transmutation circle and put this disgusting mess in the middle and POOF nothing happened, but coincidentally my mom gave birth to me someplace else. The dinosaur and wizard realized after they weren’t high anymore that you can’t just make humans out of a bunch of stuff and also because HUMAN TRANSMUTATION IS FORBIDDEN AND IMPOSSIBLE, even if you are a dinosaur and a wizard.
I have mixed feelings about being 20. I’m not a teenager anymore, but I still can’t buy alcohol in the US. I’m 20 years into life and I feel like I’m getting older, but not really doing anything important in life. But I’m not too bothered by this, because 20 is still really young, and I have tons of time to figure things out. I am going back to school though (trololol) and this time I will stay, no matter what. I think I’m more mature now, and I’ve experience a lot in this last year, and I think I’m finally ready to commit to school. But I’m not going to talk too hopefully about it, because every time I do that I cry and drop out as soon as school starts!
In closing, LET THEM HAVE CAKE!
But seriously, hurry the fuck up 21, I want to buy alcohol.
Hello, my name's Josh and I might be a hipster (you decide!). I've been blogging and designing in some form for the past eight or so years and I think I'm starting to get the hang of it (once again, you decide!). I love indie music, coming of age stories, sarcasm, video games, and aesthetics. At the moment I'm working part-time and going to college with hopes of being a web designer.

To that last statement: Agreed.

I hope you have a wonderful birthday! 20 was a weird age for me, too. It was like every other age until then had something attached to it and 20 was just a state of limbo. But enjoy it anyway because now you’re still in your 20s and it’s cool!

K you either wrote this while high or you just have an EXTREMELY active imagination. Trololol.
If you lived here you could have been buying alochol for a year. :D Or two if you lived in Quebec or Alberta and maybe other places.
ANYWAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I LOVE YOU MON AMOUR! :D

Happiest birthdizzle! I was trying to remember what it was like when I was 20, but I was in college and bought alcohol all thee time… thus I do not remember most of that year. Thus your year will probably be more memorable! Which is great! Yay!

@Clem: I wrote this completely sober, so I have a very active imagination. :P AND JE T’AIME AUSSI MA CHERIE.

I have to say it because it is definitely true: age ain’t nothing but a number. Even though you’re 20 now and legally can’t do x, y, z, that doesn’t mean you’re not an adult. You are more mature than a lot of 20 year old nincompoops I’ve met in my life, so I have a feeling you’re mentally and emotionally older than this newfangled 2-0 age thing. Although I could be entirely wrong and you are really a 13 year old that enjoys Suite Life on Deck (that was a top search engine query this year, did you know? Stop Google-ing that show so much).
Don’t worry too much about the whole school/career shenanigans. Any 20 year old that knows with 100% certainty how they are going to spend the rest of their life is not wise by any means, and neither are their parents for believing them. Take your time to figure out what you want to do and what you’re meant to do. It’ll hit you eventually. So for now? Have a happy birthday being your 20 year old self for the next year. ;)

*wants cake*! Happy Birthday :D! 20 is an awkward age, you’re not a teenager anymore and you can’t buy anything “cool” :P BUT hope you had an awesome birthday :) And I hope you send the dino and wizard some cake as well.
