At this rate who's to say I'll ever make it there?
I am having a quarter life crisis.
I hate my job.
I have no friends.
I have no education other than my field of employment.
I can barely drive.
I take three Prozac a day.
I'll be 22 this month.
I feel like I'm running out of time.
People ask me when I am going to get married.
I have never been on a date.
Never been kissed.
I feel like I'm running out of time.
I need to study.
I need to write.
Finish my books.
Get published.
Meet Steve.
Get married.
Have a baby.
I am running out of time!

What the hell are you doing with your life?
Come on you aren't getting any younger.
Fuck.
I need to get back in school.
I need a new job.
I need to get certified.
I need to network.

Fuck.
I just need to get some sleep.
