How the F am I an Adult? | QueenBeady

How does it happen, one moment you’re a kid hanging out at your local park spending your pocket money on jawbreakers (just me?) and the next you are catapulted in to being this fully grown, responsible adult that has to go out and work and pretty much fend for yourself? Is it just me or is that pretty scary? Here are the many thoughts and feels that I go through on a daily basis about adulting!

Ted & Muffy and La Redoute

  1. How the F am I an adult? Seriously.
  2. I wonder if I could get away with still playing with Barbies? (Don’t tell me you don’t think about it!)
  3. How did I spend my wage in 24 hours. Oh that’s right. Rent, bills, tax. ADULT LIFE. (Oh & maybe the whole of my ASOS basket, but hey ho, that doesn’t count. Remember we need to stick with the “woe is me” card!)
  4. Mmm am I the only one who doesn’t know how to fix a lightbulb? *Insert gritted teeth emoji/awkward turtle emoji*
  5. I have to get out of bed in the dark, spend my day in an office when it’s daylight, then come home in the dark. NO FAIR.
  6. Ted & Muffy Shoes
  7. It is entirely justifiable that I want to buy a YSL handbag that would pay 4 months of my mortgage. But… THE BAG.
  8. Shit.
  9. How would I spend my lottery win, because, obviously that is going to happen one day so I can say “see ya later bitches” and stride out the office real sassy & such. Just you wait.
  10. A house that looks like a bomb has hit it and not having your Mum to come and clean it is a daily struggle. Is it okay to hire a maid?
  11. I’m an adult with a mortgage and a husband. Where did my last 26 years go?La Redoute & Topshop Jacket & Ted & Muffy Shoes
  12. I’m closer to 50, than I am when I was fetus.
  13. SHIT?
  14. Is it okay to still laugh at farts? Should I be a little bit more grown up? But, H I L A R I O U S?!
  15. I buy stamps. I mean, come on?
  16. They don’t lie to you when they say it’s harder to lose weight when you get older. Do I have the metabolism of a 75 year old?Ted & Muffy and La Redoute
  17. I DON’T WANT A BABY YET. LEAVE ME ALONE.
  18. I wonder if I could just hop on a plane and never return. I’m packing up all this shit and taking a one-way flight outta adulthood please!
  19. Do I have to go to work?
  20. I wanna PARTY. But it’s too cold. I think I’ll just stay at home in my PJ’s. Yeah, that’s a better idea.
  21. WHAT AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE? WHERE AM I GOING? WHAT DO I WANT? Deep.Blurred (2)
  22. I wonder how many marshmallows I could fit in my mouth?
  23. Stuffs marshmallows in mouth. Seven.
  24. I feel so old around my 20 year old sister? How is this possible. I’m old.
  25. I have to write down my monthly outgoings each month to depress myself even further that my money goes walkies.
  26. Does my dog hate me? She looks like she’s giving me a concerned look. Even my dog thinks I am adulting wrong. What is life?Ted & Muffy and La Redoute
  27. I can no longer run without my tits smacking me in the face and requiring an inhaler after 100 yards.
  28. Twenty seven. The age of my next birthday. How am I nearly thirty?
  29. Ryanair flights are so cheap. I’d book that, oh wait, I have 27p left after being an adult for the month.
  30. I think I’ll just sit here and cry for a moment.
  31. Is this when I’ll have my life breakdown?
  32. OOOH, look at those snakeskin shoes from Ted & Muffy *insert heart eyed emoji*

Do you ever just sit there and think “WTF?” Yeah, me too. What things make you constantly question how well you are adulating? I’d love to know in the comments below.

    Yes yes yes!!! I particularly agree with numbers 4, 5, 20 and 25. I constantly swing between feeling, “I LOVE being an adult!” and “I HATE being an adult!” X

      Isn’t being an adult sucky sometimes? Haha! Although, it does have its perks from time to time!

    Yes, all of these things. WHEN did I become an adult, and is it ok to transfer back to being a child?

      I know right, Rosie! How did this all happen? Haha!

    This post is amazing! I must add that sometimes I wake up and I really don’t want to dress like an adult but I have to … Because you can’t walk around in your pjs at the shops….

    Oh gosh I remember buying jawbreakers ALL the time. There were like, these ones when I was at secondary school at a local shop and they were massive, cost like 50p and I don’t think I ever saw anyone actually get to the middle of them!

    Agree with you on SO many of these – although I’m kinda proud I can do #4? Though I do get scared sometimes when I can’t remember if I turned the switch on or off beforehand, and get afraid that I’ll just electrocute myself and it would be goodnight Vienna!

      YES YES YES! Those are the ones, they had different colour packets! And each layer tasted different. Proud to say, my friends and I always got to the bubble gum.

      I’m very impressed. I’m not very good with technical things!

    Are you actually in my brain!? I often think this. And when I look after my friend’s children I think shit, who decided I was fit to look after children!? I don’t feel old enough to DRIVE! (I’m 29. Boos)

    1. QueenBeady Avatar

      I have only just seen this? I’m so so so sorry for not replying sooner. Why do we have to get old and adult on a daily basis?

    No 30 so so true! The snakeskin boots are everything and you can certainly never go wrong with a black maxi dress x

    I’m gonna be 30 this year and I’ve been asking myself pretty much all of those questions! Hun, you are most definitely not alone!!

    Imagine I’m not married yet either – oh the social awkwardness! (I jest of course!) xx

      I think we are all just muddling along doing what we think is the best and occasionally completely messing up! Ha!
