Getting old and other things...

Jan 31, 2005 14:56

Today's my birthday. I am now 19. I find this quite unnerving. I don't know. 18 didn't feel that old. 19 somehow feels a LOT older. I mean, it's almost 20 and the 20s are a whole different era of my life. Or will probably be. I don't know. Regardless of that, I've been having an incredible day.

Glad you had a great 19th birthday, even if it wasn't a huge bash. Yea, sometimes, small, intimate celebrations are the better kind.

Being 19 isn't all that bad. I felt the same way when I turned 19 (I'm 24 now *criez*). I mean, a number can't change who you are. If you partied hard when you were 18 and loved it so much then you can still party hard at 21 and love is as much.. if you know what I mean.

The only real difference that affects some peoples behaviour is when they turn 18 and in to adults. They can't get away with taking part in a crime and expect to get away with it because theyre a kid :)

Thanks =)

Yeah the latter reason for change (when turning 18 and being incapable of getting away with crimes and all) never really applied to me. And I've never been much a partier and don't expect to ever be one. But I don't know. It just feels like I've lived nearly a fifth of my life now (at best) and hope that I've accomplished as much as I had aspired to accomplish by this time...
