I definitely got 24 out of 25

I've been feeling a little (A LOT) down lately and I couldn't really pinpoint anything that is SO wrong with my life to feel that way. I mean I have the usual issues but nothing to explain how I feel until I came across this post on the Huffington post.

So you may be wondering, "Am I having a quarterlife crisis?" To help you answer that question, take my quarterlife crisis diagnosis quiz which consists of 25, appropriately, questions. Read each question carefully and answer quickly with a simple yes or no (don't over think it!):

1.Are you in a "funk" where you feel like nothing is terribly wrong, but nothing seems right either?

2. Do you feel older for the first time in your life?

3. Are you unmotivated, directionless or passionless?

4. Are you concerned that you don't know what you want to do with your life?

5. Do you feel pressure to grow up and get your adult life in order?

6. Do you feel entitled to a life much grander than the one you are living?

7. Do you often feel depressed, anxious, overwhelmed, lost, and maybe even a little hopeless?

8. Do you feel a lot of pressure and expectations to do, have or be something?

9. Do you ever feel that time is running out in regards to figuring out your career and deciding whether you want to get married and/or have children?

10. Are you stressed out by choices that seemingly will affect the rest of your life?

11. Are you experiencing confusion or disappointment in your career?

12. Do you feel that you have failed because you don't know what you want to do with your life?

13. Do you know what you want to do, but can't seem to make it work?

14. Is it difficult for you to make decisions and when you do, you question them?

15. Do you overanalyze yourself?

16. Do you ever feel guilty for complaining about your life or feel like you are disappointing people (especially your parents)?

17. Are you embarrassed that you have not figured out more?

18. Is a breakup, romantic relationship, or lack of one causing you stress and/or sadness?

19. Are you still living at home with mom and dad?

20. Do you frequently compare yourself to other people your age and feel like you don't measure up?

21. Do you feel financially unstable?

22. Could your self-esteem use an upgrade?

23. Are you thinking about going back to grad school because you don't know what else to do with your life?

24. Are you constantly thinking about the future resulting in anxiety and possibly panic?

25. Is your life just not at all turning out like you planned?

If you answered "yes" to 12 or more of the 25 questions above, you are likely to be experiencing a quarterlife crisis. But don't worry, this is not bad news! The purpose of the quiz is to show you that you are actually going through a very normal and natural rite of passage that no one may have warned you about.

thought of the week

"Screw ambition! When I grow up, I want to be a kept wife"

I'm having one of those weeks when I wish I was content with being someones trophy. Damn you ambition!

Happy Halloween

From the John Galliano Fall 2009 Ready_to_wear collection..... It buffles me that this is actually considered street ready...the whole collection for that matter...

irritated

Having a random conversation with a co-worker this morning when she randomly decided to ask me whether I'm pregnant.. WTF kind of retarded ass question is that? If I was and didn't want to talk to her about it, I would be offended...Even more offensive is the fact that I'm NOT pregnant, I'm 5"5, 120pounds and DEFINITELY not pregnant...

Since my ego took a hit, I decided to find a picture of my FINE FIT ASS and put it up...thats all....ugh! totally took a dump on my day! inconsiderate mofo!

Foolishness

Lowly paid: **working on a project at the den (Satans offcourse). Typing away. Kicking ass and taking names while I’m at it. Get a notification about an incoming email but I’m busy..I’ll check in a bit**

UGH: Hey Lowly paid, did you read the email I sent you about 5 minutes ago

Lowly paid: Not as yet Ms. Ugh, Is it an emergency?

UGH: No. Not really. Take your time.

Lowly Paid: Oh ok...Thanks…I will look at it in a few minutes.

WTF is wrong with people? If it’s not an emergency and it’s only literally been 5 minutes, why did you come into my space to inquire about it? Isn’t the whole point of email so that we DON’T have to talk about it…corporate foolery much?

Civil liberties my ass!

I have a bone to pick with both men and women…

WOMEN:

I’m a hardworking 24yr old about to graduate with a BS in Finance and looking forward to going to law school to pursue a JDMBA. While I have a great love in my life and would love to make some Obama babies, I have zero interest in procreating in the near future. My great love is almost deathly terrified of fatherhood and therefore loves my plan because it buys him more time to be the infant in the house. Most men react to my plan by pointing out how difficult and exhausting it will be but reassure me and let me know that they think I could handle it. Some respond by telling me that accumulating a $200k law school bill might not be worth the effort and I should explore all my options before I pick this one. (Oh, THANK YOU DADDY-O!! I manage to work full time and go to school fulltime and maintain a decent GPA as a FINANCE major but I didn’t think the money part through...THANK YOU for pointing that out!............. DIE!)
Women for the most part call me an over achiever, tell me that I have superficial priorities and that at the end of the day some things are important than others. This is code for having children and moving to the suburbs with a part-time job while my hard-working-sweat- stained significant other toils away to make ends meet. All the while being unable to support my shoe and purse addiction. But I’ll definitely be happy...You know why? Because I’ll have a family!!… WHAT???? Is this because I don’t look like the kind of person who can multi-task (have a family and a career)? Ugh! PS: I don’t consider it a waste of time doing something I have been dreaming about since I was a kid. I’ve always wanted to go to law school and whether I do or not will be MY decision hot dammed it!!!!! I didn’t have dreams of growing up to procreate and be a nurturer … I had dreams of wearing a power suit, carrying a brief case and being a high powered exec. Sure not all dreams materialize…but I should do what it takes to increase my chances right?
Now, I’m not asking for acceptance from every woman on the planet. I’m just saying that when 8 out of 10 women think I’m crazy instead of encouraging me, we have a problem….and yes..it’s an old song sang by many others so I understand that I’m not the first woman to be disappointed in the 8 crazies, but my disappointment is just as much a kick in the stomach as it has been for every other woman who goes through this….

I’ve typed too much. I’ll vent about the men tomorrow.

Oh yeah...Lil Mama is foolish for these two separate but related occasions

Paris Hilton typically sucks but today...she rocks! Why?

Because she schooled a presidential candidate!

I'm pretty sure several people in the McCain camp just got pink slips. The Obama- Paris comparison is awesome in theory but surely someone should have noticed that Paris' mom is a contributer and supporter of the senator(McCain) before running the otherwise brilliant ad......

Cheap tactics and propaganda aside, he just got schooled by an heiress who promisses to paint the white house pink, should she "win" the election....

Thats hot!

HAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

This is what happens when an elf moves to India

HAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't make this shiz up!

Perfectly symmetrical?

So the love of my life comes into my office this evening while I am hard at work on my facebook page. Right after he kisses me hello, he says "HAH! Your zit is perfectly symmetrical. It's perfect!" and walks away like it's not a big deal................. CRINGE!!!!!

umm?? Did I miss something??

I know people like Snoop always have to step out of the box to get noticed on the red carpet but.....did I miss something? He's going country now? Is that what this sheer atrociousness is about? I'm confused

Jennifer Love-WTF?

Who dressed this poor woman? Why for the love of god almighty why??

..Whats with the bowtie on the front of that unflattering dress? Bowties are fine but if you're going to have one on a yellow dress then get dramatic with it..the bigger, the better. Everyone will understand. The pants with the shoes are atrocious.Wrong in EVERY sense of the word!

Word on the street is that this outfit was actually meant for Miley Cyrus. She took one look and said "HEoll to the NO!"

Friends shouldn't let friends leave the house dressed like that. Remember to love one another b*tches!

A little effort goes a long way

The last time I got an oil change at my neighborhood jiffy lube I swore that I would never go back there again…but lo and behold, I was desperate once again for an oil change and didn’t have the time or the energy to drive to the neighboring state(where I used to live) to get my oil change from my favorite people….so I cringe, grit my teeth, wash my hair and I suck it up and go to the same Jiffy lube that ruined my day a little over three months ago…

I leave the house looking decent (it wasn't planned. Pure coincidence). Nothing spectacular but definitely on the cute side and the minute I drive up to Jiffy lube a gentleman stops what he is doing and RUNS up to my car, says hello in the most pleasant of ways and ESCORTS me to the waiting area…On the way to the waiting room they(the knuckle headed employees that were total as*holes the last time I was there) ALL called me ma’am, they thanked me after every sentence, explained exactly what they were doing to my car and asked for my opinion and finally they ALL said goodbye to me..it was almost as good as going to my the old oil change place where I was treated like the princess I am. This goes to prove my point, if you brush your hair and wear a cute outfit, you get better service…It’s not fair but that’s life.

Consider yourselves knowledgeable b*tches…go forth and wear cute clothes!

When bad clothes happen to crazy people

So, crazy Heather McCartney a.k.a Ms. Outlandish is getting ready to go to court to hear the verdict on how much of her former husbands fortune, she’s going to get and she says to her stylist:

Ms. Outlandish: So, I’m probably getting $50million dollars which isn’t much. I wanted more. (GOLD DIGGING HEFFER)

Sylist: Yeah. That’s a b*tch…that A-hole! We have to make you look fierce. Let’s show him how hot you truly are.

Ms. Outlandish: YEAH!

Stylist: I know, lets put you in a clown outfit…BUT! With a twist. We’ll make it look like you are wearing a 70s suit. Maybe a Zoot suit? Nah. That’s too much..I’ll tone it down. You’ll be HOTT!

She showed to court looking like that. The judge gave her one look and awarded $24million dollars. Why? Because clowns don’t need $50 million!

Ps: Ms. Outlandish, Fire your stylist!! Wearing bright red lipstick with bright red eyeshadow is a crime against fashion..but THAT outfit is a crime against humanity.
