So this year I'll be 20 years old. In a little more than 7 months my teen years will be behind me. It feels weird to say that. I don't know where the time has gone but boy has a lot happened since they've started. I've been through drug wanting spells, near alcoholism, addictions to tobacco (some of which may never go away but that's a story for another time). But life is good now. Life is better than I ever thought possible back in those days of self pity and doubt. It feels odd to be close to 20. It's almost like saying, even though I was officially an adult at 18 now it seems like I can actually kind of say it.
Is this what it feels like to grow up? Because there's still a hell of a lot left to do.
