10 Thoughts on Turning 20

I’ll be 20 this year, in six days actually.  I realized that I would be turning 20 just about three weeks ago and when I did, I was kind of shocked.

1.      Where the hell did all the time go? I seriously thought just yesterday that I was eight and I was still on crutches.  Now I’m just a handful of days away from no longer being a teenager.  What happened?

2.      No longer a teenager? I can’t decide if I’m thrilled at that thought or terrified.

3.      Not being a teenager anymore? Like seriously, I’m going to be an adult in six days.  When did I agree to do this? If it was when I was throwing an angst fit a few years ago in high school, I take it back. I don’t wanna be a responsible grown up right now.

4.      How many times will I write 19 before I remember I’m actually 20? It took me until the middle of March to remember it wasn’t 2012 any more and that all the dates I had written since the first were wrong.  I might forget about not being 19 still until my 21^st.

5.      Turning 20 doesn’t mean that I have to give up my in car singing and dancing, does it? Because if it does, count me out! I’ll stay a teenager.

6.      I’m surprised I lasted this long. I thought someone would have shot me by now, to be honest.

7.      I know I’m only a couple years older than them, but turning 20 makes me feel really old compared to my friends still in high school.

8.      Do I get more naps?

9.      Honestly though, the last two years have flown by and I can’t believe that in six whole days I’ll be turning 20.

10.  Is it still childish to want an ice cream cake for my birthday?

Six days.  Woah.
