I have never had...

<p>…so many bittersweet experiences in my life.</p>

<p>I just got home from Target…I went shopping for kitchen stuff with my sister (yes, I have a kitchen!). Also bought some miscellaneous items.</p>

<p>But man…it’s just so bittersweet! Like it was really fun shopping for things like my own measuring cups and spoons. Most of all, I loved spending MY money from MY bank account. It just felt so…“This is MINE.”</p>

<p>But then at the same time, it’s so sad…I can really feel childhood slipping out of my hands. And I feel like me (and all my friends as well) are letting go, and yet trying to hold onto it as hard as we possibly can.</p>

<p>Turns out spreading my wings isn’t quite as seamless as I thought it would be.</p>

<p>Yes, the adjustments will be many…lots of excitement tinged with regret/sadness/trepidation. You’ll be just fine. It’s time to soar and really see the world from a whole new perspective!! Go for it!</p>
