The final countdown...

I am one month away from leaving teenage-hood forever. 

OH MY GAWD. 

But seriously, what? I've got to start being mature, and do adult-type things like pay for my own phonebill and stuff... Since when did I have to grow up? 

Anyway, lets not worry about the future. Because I'm all about living in the now. 

I'm still 19. For now. I've got one more month of being immature and acting like a 5-year-old in public places, I might as well make the most of it. I've got things planned for my birthday, and running up to it, and I will release my inner child into the world for one last 'hurrah' before having to climb back into myself and start being grown up.

Last year, I tried to compile a list of things I wanted to do before I turned 19. 

That didn't happen. 

So  I turned it into a list of things I wanted to do before I turned 20. 

I forgot about it. 

And, before you say anything, I'm not going to try and make a list of things I want to do before I'm 21! Instead, I want to simply say this: 

My childhood hasn't been the greatest. It was difficult growing up, as it is for anyone, and it's awful to say that I had the worst childhood, because I certainly didn't. But that doesn't mean that I'm happy it's ending. Instead, it's a new page of a new chapter in the story of my life. Something new to look forward to. It may be scary, in fact, it's terrifying, but I'm  willing to grab the bull by the horns and attack life. I will take every opportunity I am given. Take risks. Be daring. And I want all of my friends and family to be there, standing by my side. Just like I would do for them. Wish me luck as I delve into the big, bad, scary, exciting world. Who knows where I'll end up. Whether I'll live in a mansion in the country or an apartment in the city, I will get somewhere in life if it kills me! See you on the other side.
