People seem to always be completely baffled when i tell them that i am 19.
It normally follows with a:
-jaw drop
-wide eyes
-accompanied with a "huh!?!?" expression
because they normally think that i'm 12 when they see me. like...ACTUALLY 12.
I get offended half the time by it but the other half of me doesn't really care. Because whether i like it or not - that's who i am.
I think a part of me will forever be juvenile. Not just in my looks but how i act too. I choose to act that way because i have fun doing it. I don't act immature, just....juvenile at times. I have gone through many scary "grown up" situations that one would think to make me some serious and depressed 19 year old adult. But whats the fun in that?! I've learned from those experiences. I have built the strong core i need and then proceed to having my fun most of the time.
No offence to all you adults out there.....but i'm in no rush to grow up. I'm sure many people close to me have heard me say:
"I NEVER WANT TO GROW UP. I WANT TO LIVE IN NEVER NEVER LAND WITH PETER PAN"
Well.......it's true folks! During my grade twelve year i had an extremely hard time accepting the fact that i was leaving high school and actually had to start turning into an adult. I still am having a hard time.
Deciding which road i want to go down when i see none made with yellow bricks, isn't such an easy decision to make........until recently - when i got my new summer job:
Working with kids.
