18th Birthday

Well here it is!! The day I turn 18!! I'm so happy! It is one of the days I have been waiting for ever since I turned 16! I'm finally an adult... Yes, I do know that now I have even more responsibilities, but I'm not a kid anymore and I do know how to handle myself! :)
This is not an assignment from my College English class, it is just something that I feel like doing. :)
I will admit that I miss being a child because the only thing you have to worry about is "cooties." ;) No stress. No worries. Just playing around on the playground and trying to behave like a good child. :)
There are ups and downs to both childhood and adulthood, but I'd rather not think about that quite yet. :) I'm in the here and now, and thats exactly where I want to be! Sure, I'm excited about the future and miss things from the past, but if you don't pay attention to today, you might miss something either small or big... There's no difference... Everything that happens, happens for a reason. So have fun, live life, and don't worry about what's to happen ahead or what happened in the past, for today is a new day!
