Don't be so down on yourself, you ARE still actually in college and DO have a job! You are way ahead of the game! Plus I got the impression from your soon to be old place of residence (and new place too) that you probably aren't doing too badly for yourself monetarily either :) But it's actually a good sign for you to feel down and out, it's a sign of a succesful person, that you aren't satisified with what you have, that you WANT to grow more. If you had all the things you said you wanted, you'd still find something more to have already achieved and to want to achieve. For example, I recently turned 26 and even though I have all those things you said you want, the feeling I got a month before my birthday wasn't "woot" but instead it was a feeling just like yours: "oh shi, what am I doing with my life? I don't have any kids, I've never gotten to live outside of Florida, etc" When you realize that the feeling is not about how much you've accomplished and is instead something along the lines of a "quarter life crisis" only THEN can you relax and truly take stock in your life. Once you've got that in mind, and take a look at your life again I'm sure that you'll realize that you really aren't doing that bad after all :) Cheers Ahh dude.
