Adulting: Am I Doing it Right?

I wouldn't have had an answer a week ago or even a few days ago. And even to this day, I consider myself still in that weird limbo between child/teen and full blown adult. 

So I guess my question is "is anyone doing it right?" and really, who's to judge?

You don't have to do any of these things to be an adult, but these handful of things makes me feel like I'm being an adult most of the time:

Listening to SOME talk radio and at least knowing what's going with our country and the world. It's heartbreaking and eye-opening. How did I not care before? It may still be (very) boring, but I'm learning--and that's the key thing here. (My dad is probably having a "proud father moment")

Spending an obnoxious amount at Loft getting one professional-kickass-boss outfit for a sales meeting--that went off without a hitch.

Caring what goes into my body, but knowing that I'm not perfect and I will never stop loving cheese.

Appreciating the small things like a brand new-to-me bed. I no longer sleep on a mattress on the floor--thanks mom and dad.

Saving a little bit more than I'm spending.



Having a clean apartment at least three days out of the week.

While I still enjoy my Spaghetti Os and Princess gummy vitamins and am far from perfect,  I have a lot more "adult-like" qualities than I thought. 

And for the first time in a while I've thought to myself: "Allison, you're doing just fine."
