Expectations vs. Reality

When graduation hit, I felt like big things were on the horizon. Like somehow being graduated would make all of the mature, handsome and funny cute blonde boys flock to me and I would also live a lifestyle where I could wear heels during the day and my prom dress to events at night. And that somehow by being graduated I wouldn't be annoyed with stupid boys, fall for stupid boys, and have to deal with stupid boys. And boy was I wrong. I feel like Bailey here is a very clear visual of how I was looking forward to the time after graduation, full of high hopes and very great expectations, and myself in the photo is how I actually feel- like oh goodness I actually have to make real life decisions and probably not spend all of my money on zucchini bread and graphic t shirts. Because guess what: as happy as I am to be done with highschool and have that in the past, being graduated doesn't grant you a pearl necklace wearing with a cute guy in a bow tie draped on your arm kind of lifestyle; boys still kind of suck, you still feel insecure too many times and you find out that wearing heels all day actually hurts really bad and you do not know how Blair Woldorf does it. And although my lifestyle is not filled with black tie events where I can show off my newest Last Chance find ;-) my graduated lifestyle of working super hard and going to lunch with friends and working out and tanning lots is pretty great. But still, I am waiting for a place to wear my prom dress to again so if anyone has a ball or anything coming up and a cute handsome blonde hunk that loves to watch sitcoms, loves backscratches and will laugh at my silly jokes who also needs a date with a fancy dress please comment below.
