Not all it's cracked up to be

I was recently reading one if my favorite online magazines, Bedlam magazine, I came across an article that really hit too close to home. Molly Chambers writes on how age 27 wasn't at all how she expected. While reading I reflected on my  what my expectations were :married by 23, having 1st by 25 and maybe by 27 pregnant again or trying. However that picturesque life was not in my cards. I did community college after high school and then for 5 years worked a dead end job before choosing to go back to school and get my bachelors degree. So here I am 27, very single, entering my junior year of college. Life isn't always as you plan and that's okay.
