Adulthood It was the best of times it was the worst of times Quickwho wrote - photo 1

Adulthood It was the best of times it was the worst of times Quickwho wrote - photo 2

Adulthood.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Quickwho wrote that? If you answered, Charles Dickens, then congratulationsyou paid attention in that English seminar. And you are undoubtedly smart. Butdo you know how to ask for a raise? Organize your kitchen? Treat adult acne? (Yes, unfortunately, its real. And even if you did receive an A in molecular biology, you still might get it.)

That line from A Tale of Two Cities pretty much summarizes the whole post-school experience, if you ask me. Your 20s are a time of incredible highs and lows. Or, per Mr. Dickens: It was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us.

OK, you get the picture. But youre not living in London or Paris during the French Revolution. Youre living in the 21st century, with a shiny, new adult life. Which sometimes is really spectacular and sometimes positively sucks.

I speak from experience here. Oh, I was happy to graduate from college and put the constant pressure of schoolwork behind me. But when I graduated, I looked at my diploma and thought, What am I supposed to do with this? I mean, exactly which real-world situations does college prepare you for? Learning that there was an important difference between, say, Tom Wolfe and Thomas Wolfe was great, but it did nothing to help me understand my legal rights when I moved into my first big-girl, roommate-free apartment and there were opera singersspecifically, opera singers who practiced at homeliving on the other side of the wall. As it turns out, I didnt need to tolerate their incessant, very loud singing!

But I didnt know that because I didnt have this book when I signed the lease - photo 3

But I didnt know that, because I didnt have this book when I signed the lease on that apartment. What you hold in your hands is (hopefully) the only reference you will ever need to navigate the practical side of adulthoodor the beginnings of adulthood, at least. Rsums, roommates, easy recipes, budgeting, beauty tricks, small-space solutions, breakup advice, 401(k)s, thank-you notes, stain-removal tips, how to buy a bra, how to clean an air conditioner: This book covers it all.

So enjoy. But one last thing: I suggest you dont try reading this book in one sitting. After all, youre not going to be tested on it. And isnt that fantastic?
