So, for those of you who don't know this, my 20th birthday is on the 10th of January. This Sunday. I'm only turning 20. I'm living in the prime of my life. I should be having the time of my life. Why then, do I feel so old? I'm only turning 20! That's no reason to feel old, right? I think I've figured out why though. This generation has alot resting on it's shoulders. Ours is the generation that will be here to make or break our nation. With the country plunging into, what could be, another depression, my generation is the one that will either pull through or break the backbone of this nation for our daughters and our sons. Our neices and nephews. Our granddaughters and grandsons. We will either get our country out of a nasty depression or we will fall and fall hard and leave the younger generations to pick up the pieces.
Plus, I'm turning 20. Once you turn 21, there's nothing left to look forward to, as far as age goes. You only get older! I was on the phone with a friend from high school today and we started talking about how we felt kinda old. I said that after 21, there's nothing else to look forward to and he said "Yes there is! Retirement!" So you have the ages 10 (because you are finally in the double digits), 16 (never really knew why that one was so special, but for girls, it just is), 18 (becoming an official adult), 21 (being able to buy acohol) and then 65!!!!!!!!!!
Haha, bring it on life, I'm ready for you....
Don't worry Jess. I don't mind that you're old. As long as you can still arue with me about who's which miser and can quote Elf, we're good.
