In our school days, college seemed like a place that was almost akin to heaven. We kept fantasying about how free we would be when we go to college. And we went on to college, you kept waiting to pass out and get a job. You were then charged up about a career, earning money and being self-dependent. This constant process of wanting to grow up brings us to adult life without any warnings.

One fine day, you just realise with a jolt that you have grown up. Here are some signs to know that you are now a grown up. These tell-tale signs are part of adult life in comparison to childhood memories.

You No Longer Look Forward To Vacations

That is because you don't have any. You are more than happy to get a long weekend at home. And if you fantasise about a weekend at home, then that is sign that you are a grown up in the truest sense.

Festivals Don't Excite You Anymore

Earlier you waited for the Christmas week all year. But now, festivals are a time when you don't have to go to office. You no longer look forward to Christmas gifts or the huge cherry cake your mom makes.

Birthdays Mean You Are Getting Older

Earlier you told everyone proudly how old you turned on your birthday. But age is a question you avoid on your birthdays now. One of the best signs of grown up is irritation for birthdays; it just means you got an year older!

Kids In Your Neighbourhood Call You 'Uncle/Aunty' Now

You might have been used to being called 'Bhaiya' (meaning elder brother) or 'Didi' (meaning elder sister) by the kids in your neighbourhood. But all of a sudden, they have stated addressing you as 'uncle' or 'aunty'! Painful reminder of adult life.

All You Want From A Hot Boss Is Your Increment

You no longer look forward to spending some 'quality' time with your boss. All you want is a fat pay check. This means you are beyond childish office romances.

These are some of the signs to know that you are grown up now. How did you first realise that you have grown up?
