Your 20s are supposed to be a glorious time in your life.
But as someone who just turned 23, I'll let you in on a little secret: Being young and fabulous isn't always easy.
If you don't believe me, just ask Samantha Jayne.
This talented 25-year-old recently created an awesome Instagram account called Quarter Life Poetry, and it features illustrated poems all about the real 20-something struggles.
Samantha has always been a Dr. Seuss fan, so she decided to make a series of poems based on experiences people her age could relate to, and quite frankly, her brutally honest scenarios are on point. Every single time.
According to Samantha,
I wanted to write something that my friends could actually relate to. It's more like 'Oh The Places You Didn't Go Because You're Up To Your Ears In Student Loans.'
At the end of the day, this girl doesn't let FOMO, bad Tinder dates or the corporate grind get her down.
She believes,
It's important to find humor in these frustrating years and not take life so seriously.
