If you graduated from college but still feel like a student
. . . if you wear a business suit to job interviews but
pajamas to the grocery store . . . if you have your own
apartment but no idea how to cook or clean . . . it's OK.
But it doesn't have to be this way. Just because you
don't feel like an adult doesn't mean you can't act like
one. And it all begins with this funny, wise, and useful
book. Based on Kelly Williams Brown's popular blog, ADULTING
makes the scary, confusing "real world" approachable,
manageable-and even conquerable. This guide will help you to
navigate the stormy Sea of Adulthood so that you may find
safe harbor in Not Running Out of Toilet Paper Bay, and
along the way you will learn:
- What to check for
when renting a new apartment-Not just the nearby bars, but
the faucets and stove, among other things.
- When a
busy person can find time to learn more about the world- It
involves the intersection of NPR and
hair-straightening.
- How to avoid hooking up with
anyone in your office -- Imagine your coworkers having
plastic, featureless doll crotches. It helps.
- The
secret to finding a mechanic you love-Or, more
realistically, one that will not rob you
blind.
From breaking up with frenemies to fixing
your toilet, this way fun comprehensive handbook is the
answer for aspiring grown-ups of all ages.
