Whoa, I'm 20. (An Embarrassingly Cheesy Blog Entry)

Dec 21, 2008 08:43

Okay, first of all, I'm twenty, not twenteen years old. Only old people are in denial about their ages, and only kids try to grow up in a hurry, and I am neither. XD I'm twenty. And I figured since turning twenty seems like a big thing, I might as well write about it.

Some random thoughts that popped into my head:
  • I'm in a different age bracket now. As in, I check a different box whenever I fill up a form XD.
  • I'm four years away from the age my mom was when she got married and had her first child. O_o'
  • Twenty is a big thing, and twenty-one is sort of going to be a big thing too, since then I'll be completely legal in all countries O_o'. It feels kind of weird having two important birthdays in a row.
  • In Japan, twenty is when people come of age rather than eighteen, and even though I still don't feel like an adult, that makes more sense to me than having a debut at eighteen.
  • I just realized I had foie gras for three days in a row O_o'. Specifically, at my mom's birthday dinner, as part of the discussion in SA 21 the next day, and at my birthday dinner with my family. Yay for food!
  • It seems that every time I take pictures of parties or gatherings, almost all the pictures are of food rather than people XD. My family's kind of camera-shy.
Well, I have no problems with being twenty, but I still can't get my head around it. I feel like there should be some huge difference between twenty and nineteen, but then again that's all in my head XD. I could always write about how my life has been for the past two decades, but I'm really too lazy to do that right now. Besides, that seems like something that should be written in a journal rather than a blog. I could write about all the things I'm grateful for and while that would be nice, it seems kind of cliche. Nevertheless, I think it's worth saying that I've had a pretty great life so far and I'm not sugar-coating anything when I say this. And (I know this is one of the most cliche things I could ever say) I definitely owe the awesomeness of the past twenty years to the people in my life - you guys. So, I don't know how this blog entry suddenly became a thank-you letter, but anyway, thanks to all of you who've been in my life and it the way it is for better or worse, especially to those who celebrated my birthday and/or greeted me. You guys made my birthday awesome, and I'm really touched that you guys came and/or greeted me. I love you guys! :D
