We posted about this recently, and I wanted to unpack it here with the gorgeous lens of years passing since I was 22 and felt a little lost in the world.
Plus, you guessed it, more hot recs and chaotic music mixes to make you ~ feel cute ~

To bait you into becoming a paid supporter and reading the rest of this piece, here are few of the things I wish I knew when I was 22:
If you’re 22 you’re making the best friendships of your life although you won’t know it yet. The feeling will come. More people will come, more people will go. This will get easier in time.
If you’re 22 you’re existential af and if you’re not you’re probably lying. Maybe you love someone, maybe you don’t. Maybe you’re content, maybe you’re not. Years later, at a lake with friends you’ll share a spliff with a small group of strangers and realise that the secret to all of that feeling is really up to you.
If you’re 22 you’ll be increasingly dependent on the phrase ‘living once’ which will feel like a blessing to buy the shoes and a curse to go to work. Money will be weird – it will come and it will go. There will always be people who have more of it. Not everyone will know how to cope with that. Do your best. See how you go.
