On Tuesday I turned 20. It’s weird because for me I wasn’t excited at all for my birthday, I was actually dreading it. I spent my birthday working…I worked all morning and all evening and had literally like 5 hours of sleep. I stared at the clock before midnight because I wanted time to go slower. What I’m pretty much saying is that I wanted to be 19 forever. As immature as that sounds, it was what I wanted.
Like I’m officially out of my “teens” I could say because the word “teen” is no longer in my age. Think about it. When you’re 19, people still think you’re considered young. Now that I’m 20, I guess I’m gonna have no choice but to sort of grow up and get out of that highschool teen stage. Most of my friends either just finished highschool or are still in it for another year. It sucks that I can’t say I’m 20-teen haha. But being serious, I just didn’t like the fact that I’m getting old. I’ve entered into my 20′s! These should be the best and hard times of my life and yet there I was all depressed that I was turning 20. But you can’t really blame me because in all honesty, getting old isn’t always a good thing. But during the week, I got the chance to think to myself and really analyze the situation.
During the week I was thinking to myself that I just gained some amount of respect now that I’m 20. My parents are going to have to (or eventually) look at me as more of an adult and give me more freedom and independence. That’s all I really ask for from them. But obviously when I need them, I hope they’ll be there. So far they have been. And even to the public eye, I’m hoping that people will take me seriously. In a way, near the end of the week…I finally accepted the fact that I was 20 and instead was pretty happy I was. I’m excited to see what my 20′s have in store for me and hopefully I’ll enjoy them!

Woah, despite turning 20, you have a good view point. I be honest, it makes sense to fear turning 20. You need to realize however that it is going to happen whether you like it or not and that you will have to deal with it.
Kiss your teen years goodbye and embrace adulthood. It will be a be transition, but I am sure you can do it.
When I turn 20, I hope to have my parents do the same as well. I want my parents to always be part of my life, but I still want my space, you know?

When i first turned 20 i was afraid too. I hated not being a teen, but after a few weeks I got use to it. Now I’m happy to be 21! sometimes its nice you know, being treated like an adult ahaha but i do sometimes miss the lack of responsibility of a teen =]

Happy Birthday! Wow! 20! I’m not 20 or anything yet. I’m only 18. But I can say that just because you’re not a teenager anymore doesn’t mean that you have to be all grown up. Yes, you’re considered more of an adult now, but that doesn’t mean you have to accept all of the adult responsibilities over night.
Don’t rush yourself into adulthood. Being 20 doesn’t mean that you have to accept the entire world onto your shoulders at once, or even at all. You’re only human.
You’ll do great though. So don’t worry too much. 
I still cannot believe that I have won a domain from you. I can’t thank you enough for the domain! I’m going to set the website up on it soon! :3
Thank you so much for the well wishes to! I really appreciated it.

Man. I’d KILL to be 20 again. Trust me, when you’re 25, you’ll be saying that too. Happy Belated.

That’s funny, because the other day I had this realisation that next year I would be turning 20, and I had the weirdest feeling! I don’t not want to be a teenager, either! I know exactly how you feel, becasue in a way we realise that we are no longer in our teens and will feel this need to “grow up” somewhat. It’s quite scary, really!
Happy Belated Birthday, though

With age comes a lot of responsibility but a lot of freedom. It’s a win some, you loose some situation, but what can you do about it right?
I agreed with your input about Transformer. I ‘was looking forward to it but I didn’t
expect it to be THAT enjoyable.
Anyways Happy Belated Birthday!

I am on winter break! I live in Australia, so the seasons are the opposite, haha. It can get pretty cold in the part of Australia I live in, but it’s nothing like European winters! I live near the mountains, so if I ever go up there, it’s about 5-10 degrees colder than anywhere else, it’s crazy!
I can understand the whole language thing, I actually think it’s quite rude! The high school I went to accepted a lot of international students and they were very exclusive. It annoyed me when they spoke in their own language in class and stuff, so that none of us could understand what they were saying. I found that stupid seeing as they speak English and had come to Australia to learn!
