The Obligatory Birthday Post...

Jan 27, 2006 09:50

Soooo...today's my 19th birthday. Yay! You know, 19th doesn't really feel much different than my 18th, or even 17th birthdays, but it seems like next year, when I turn "the big 2-0," that'll feel REALLY different than being 19. Probably because this is the last of my "-teen" years; otherwise, I don't know how else to explain it. It's like 17-18-19 all kind of mesh together (with the minor exception of 18, since then you're an adult who can buy porn and cigarettes and lotto tickets [none of which I've actually purchased in the 365 days since turning legal, though] and vote [which I have done--twice!--since turning 18]), but then when you hit 20, it's, like, whoa!! I'm never going to be a teen again! Fuck, I'm OLD!

God, I'm making this sound worse than it is, eh? Myabe I'm just being bitter since I haven't gotten even one effin' card from my extended family, and my birthday meal last night (my mom picked a surprise restaurant for me) wasn't very good.

So anyways, happy birthday to me.

Now I can go up to Canada and get legally shit-faced. Woot.
