So I'm turning 21 in exactly two weeks... o.o

To be completely honest, it's kind of scary, knowing that I'll be 21 like dangit where did the past two decades go? But at the same time, when it comes, I know I'll just be like "oh, it's my birthday isn't it" and go on with my life.

I think that part of what makes it scary is the fact that it's 21. Blackjack. Legal drinking age. And all sorts of other what-have-yous. It's 21 but on the inside, you don't feel any different at all. Because you're supposed to be an adult now. Like, a real adult. None of this 18-legal-voting-age crap. High school doesn't do much for you if you want to become an "adult." But 21... You've been out of it for a while now, out in the real world-ish for a few years but I still can't quite figure out what to do with myself.

Someone needs to tell little kids... that it takes a long time for things to work out. It takes a long time for anyone to figure out what they're doing and what they want to do. Someone also needs to tell them that if they can't figure it out, it's okay.

And now it just feels like I'm ranting... so I guess I'll stop for now.

To anyone out there: Happy Birthday! \(^^)/
