What Your Early Twenties Will Be Like

cant believe james has been working on this video for 25 years

"WE KNOW HOW MUCH MONEY YOU OWE US BUT WE WON"T TELL YOU" That's probably one of the most painful yet pointless realities we'll ever have to face

As 19 year old this video couldn't have come at a better time lol

Now that I’m 23, it’s hard figuring life out sometimes and I stress myself out. As I continue to grow up into the early teens, I’ve been seeing a lot of people I graduated high school with already have degrees, dream jobs, starting families etc, I would always have a feeling as if I’m not making progress in life. I still feel that way sometimes, but something that I just tell myself is that everyone figures out their life at their own pace. Remember that each of our journeys are different, so never compare yourself to other people. We will all figure it out eventually! Explore and enjoy the moments during this stage of life, you will get to where you need to be!

Platypus: "Am i ever gonna find something i'm truly passionate about?" That hit a little too close....

“OH, LADIES!!!” ”You’re gonna…you’re gonna want to sit down for this one…”

I watched this back when it came out, and I am 18 currently, and this video hit so hard. Last semester, I went to university for physics and math and I was dead the entire way through right from the beginning. Like those two were my favourite subjects, and I was failing. It literally destroyed me. I've never had such a hard time, and everyone around me seemed like they were doing great. Like what was wrong with me? I realized late into the semester that it was okay to just calm down, and work on yourself. I wasnt failing because I was stupid -it was the 'boss' in my head that'd berate me constantly. By the end of the sem, my life got improved when I just let myself be free. Giving myself some love was the only reason I passed. Growing up means you're your own boss, but when that boss hates the shit out of you, you'd remember how nice it was when someone else who cared about you was in control. But I do want my own life, and I guess understanding how to love yourself is apart of adulthood.

Becoming and adult was the best thing that had happen to me. I am now 28 and i would never even dream of comming back to school. The only thing i can agree is being tired part. I work out and run regularly and yet i still feel tired. The food part is easily fixable. The most healthy dishes are the most basic ones and it never takes too much time (like idk, potatoes eggs and salad or rice and chicken) The only problem with life is that it sometimes becomes so comfortable that you might lose the will to even do stuff.

“Ladies you’re gonna wanna sit down for this” I can’t stop laughing 😂

Here's the thing: laundry and dishes aren't chores, they're cycles. You clean the stuff to put it away to use it to clean it, etc. I think it's much easier to do them that way

I’m 29 and something that really helped me go through life is spirituality, constantly reminded that there is a higher reality is a relief and a liberation from all worries and bondages.

It’s crazy how this guy shows what it will look like for most of his viewers in a fun way and kinda explains what’s good and bad and why we should be looking forward to adulthood. Keep going James!

"Ladies...you're gonna wanna sit down for this" I felt that

“LADIES! You’re going to want to sit down for this.” ACCURATE AF!

As a 33 year old, these are all so accurate, just wait until you have tiny humans relying on you too

I love how after 6:00, James' mug keeps changing phrases

“Ladies, you’re gonna wanna sit down for this” I agree. 10 year old me was terrified when I learned it

Actual Adults: “your so young! You’re in your early twenties!” James: im practically dead

This hit me hard. Almost everything you mentioned is happening or has happened sometime this past year. Thanks for putting this out into the world

Turned 21 yesterday and this just popped up in my recommended, I’m relating to all of this a scary amount
