Someday.... not today, and probably not for half a week at least....I am going to write this piece. But for now life is too crazy.
I'm SUPER excited about writing it, though. It's about the culture of 20-somethings and a new life stage that some call, "Emerging Adulthood." Here are the articles that I'll be referencing:
The first one that kicked off my interest was a blog I stumbled upon called by this girl who is quite similar to me (SMALL LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGE, JUNIOR AGE, ENGLISH MAJOR, HARRY POTTER FAN, LOVES TO WRITE):
Why Being in Your 20's is Rough
That was last week. Then an article caught my eye on the cover of the "New York Times Magazine" called:
What is it About 20-Somethings?
which made reference to the research of Jeffrey Jensen Arnett's research:
Emerging Adulthood
I was going to examine all these things from a ThEoLoGiCaL perspective as well. After making this decision yesterday, I log onto Facebook today and notice that MARK DRISCOLL WROTE A REVIEW IN RESPONSE TO THE EXACT NEW YORK TIMES ARTICLE THAT I HAVE BEEN READING. This made me super excited, but I hate to always reference Mark Driscoll ALL THE TIME. It makes me feel obsessed and like I get all my information from one source. But I'll have to expand my theological horizon some other time, 'cause this is good stuff:
The World is Filled with Boys Who Can Shave.
Well, there you have it! I hope to continue reading up on this tonight and write the article some time at the end of this week. But with school-craziness who knows....
