I Am Going Through A Pre-Quarter Life Crisis

Me: Our birthday's are coming up!  (mine is September 1 and my sister's is the 4th)
Janet: Yeah, I am going to be 24!  That is almost a quarter century years old! I am going to have a quarter life crisis!
Me: I think I am already going through my quarter life crisis and I am only turning 22....
Janet: Yes, I'm pretty sure you are.

This is exactly how mine and my sister's conversation went yesterday while we were talking on the phone.  It is pretty sad that Janet lives 6 hours away from me and can still tell that I am going through some sort of crisis.  This whole year, I have been struggling with turning 22.  I LOVE birthdays!  I love them so much that I even celebrate half birthdays.  This year, my excitement is not what it normally is.  When someone mentions my birthday, I always go into defense mode.  Out of no where, I will blurt out, "I'm not that old!"  Then the person will typically look at me as if I were crazy and say, I would give ANYTHING to be that age again.  I am not sure why it is stuck in my head that 22 is old.  Hopefully once I get past this birthday, the rest of my birthdays will be a breeze.  I am praying that I just hit my quarter life crisis 3 years early.  

I never know what each year will bring but being that I am going into this year as my pre-quarter life crisis, I just may do some crazy things this year  :)  

Does anyone else have this problem of getting older??  I just wish I could stay young FOREVER!
