20 Something

by Kevin Patrick Kenealy

The 20s is a strange age to be in the early 21st century. While it's very liberating to be young and have this feeling of independence, there is this conflict that we have to age fast and many of us are still fighting for that independence - many of us don't have enough money to stand on our own two feet like the generation before us. It's a transition age that's between the "best years of your life" (high school) and the entry into adulthood. So this addresses what it's like for me to grow up in this time period and go through these experiences.

About the author

I am a high school English teacher, author and journalist. But my goal in life is to just be a good husband and father, a good son, a good friend, and a good person in general.

When I'm not writing, I enjoy traveling (I have been to 48 out of the 50 states and to six countries outside the U.S.). I hope to make it to all 50 states one day as well as make it to every continent. On the other side of the coin, I like being a homebody, where I can work on home projects like improving the landscaping of my yard or fixing things around the house. I also enjoy hiking and indulging the kid in me by building Legos or watching cartoons.
