Sillygirl85 · May 2014

When I was 22 I was studying abroad in Spain.

I graduated from college and got my first "real" job, living in Boston, living on my own with friends.

9/11 happened and a lot changed.

At 22, I was working just starting work at the credit union where I worked until Alice was born and extremely bitter at everything because we had been TTC for 3 years.

On a happy note, we took fabulous vacations! We went to Vegas that year for the first time.

Graduating college and starting my first real full time job living at home with my parents. DH and I were in a long distance relationship then since he was commissioned into the navy a year before I graduated college (he graduated the year before me.) I was in Philly suburbs and he was in Charleston, SC.

LexiSophie55 · May 2014

I was in college and having the time of my life. Drinking was #1 priority - having fun with friends and having very few cares in the world. Man I had fun.

Wally3 · May 2014

Living in upstate ny. Working up my doc in chemistry living with a guy who didn't love me as much as I loved him. Thank goodness I made major changes in my life by the time I turned 23.

LorMor · May 2014

Working in my first job, very poor, single, had loads of fun with friends. Lived on my own, but sometimes had a friend sharing my apt.
Ha ha, got my first cellphone! Didn't know why I needed such a thing.

LaurenBullock · May 2014

I was pregnant with DD, getting my insurance license for life and health, and buying a house.

nealbl · May 2014

I moved into my first house with my bf now DH! I started my first big girl job as an assistant buyer. We partied a lot and I paid off most of my debt I accumulated in college!

stephcarter · May 2014

DH and I were living together, but not yet engaged. We had full custody of SD at that point. I was still in school and had just changed my major from bio/premed to HR mgmt after I realized that without fail I panic and pass out in hospitals almost every time. I was working full time at the bar in the phl airport.

I really don't miss school.

CLLDLL · May 2014

Was finishing up school and working as an intern for the company I still work for now. I took the summer/early fall off to enjoy my last summer w/out a real job and started full time right after 9/11.

Starry Again · May 2014

I broke up with an on and off boyfriend of 5 years and met my husband when I was 22. I graduated college, landed my first professional job, and traveled a ton between 21-23 (New Zealand, Europe, Egypt, Japan, Puerto Rico). I drank too much and acted stupid too often. Still no regrets. I learned a lot.

lady dixneuf · May 2014

Oh I should add I drank A LOT then too hahaa.

I have had that stupid Taylor Swift song stuck in my head all day, it's funny I've only heard it a few times ever and only knew it was her recently!

Mrs_Lady · May 2014

Really bad break up was working for ny comptrollers office. Dated several jerks and was thinking of the lsat

pinitbaby · May 2014

I was a stay at home mommy and had my 3rd baby by the time I was 22. My (now ex) husband worked construction so he had 15 hour days. We had a beautiful house on 2 acres with the lake at the end of our road..ahhh those were the days..when the kids were younger and there wasn't much worry. Now my oldest is 15, 6'1", wears size 14 mens shoes and stays out half the night leaving his mama to be a worry wort!! LOL!

Happy Birthday Mambo!!!

Ziegeficker · May 2014

When I was 22, I moved from Texas to Washington with DH (who was then my fiance) after graduating from college. Gah, that seems like an eternity ago...

PixelPosy · May 2014

I had just graduated college and took a temporary job until I found my "real" job, not knowing it would turn into my real job. I had just met DH and we weren't too sure about each other yet. Our 1st and 2nd dates were 5 months apart! I was living with a roomie from hell, but loved my first apartment.22 was a lot of scary and exciting firsts. A lot of late nights out with friends and early mornings pulled together for work. Not sure how I had the energy.
