1. Opened a checking account. With a line of credit. Oh snap. So yeah, I know that a lot of, like, 12 year olds have checking accounts, but I dealt in cash from the time I was 9 until I was 18, so this was a big deal for me.
2. Bought myself a Christmas present. And wrapped it. And put it under the tree to me from me. (This, I think, is an especially adulty thing to do.)
3. Took myself out to lunch just because I felt like it. Really, this is one adulty thing that is actually awesome, because you can just think, "Hey, I want Panda Express." And you know what you can do? You can take an alternate route on your drive home and you can buy some freaking orange chicken and enjoy that.
4. Put a security deposit + down payment on an apartment. Basically the most daunting $150 I ever spent. Just got real, man.
5. Interviewed for a full-time job. The whole day waiting for it, I felt like I was going to vomit and I couldn't eat anything. And then on the way there I got super lost and backwards, cried, and was 1 minute late when I should have been 20 minutes early. Then I went in and they said to me, "You seem to be quite the go-getter." WELL YEAH I AM THANKS YOU SHOULD HIRE ME SO I CAN MAYBE PAY FOR 1% OF COLLEGE. I got the job, p.s.
