Today is my birthday. I have finally after years of trying and living reached the age of complete maturity. I am 21. I know what you are all thinking. So now she is going to get shitfaced drunk and all that jazz, right? Well, maybe. But in reality I have no desire to be drug home by someone else. I don't even have the desire to get drunk. I absolutely don't see the point. When you have lived life the way i have these things just don't matter. So I won't be considered a baby anymore, good. I won't be the young one anymore, fabulous. Who needs it? I will be able to drink if I want. So I will keep that in mind. To me this age just means I am no longer a child a teenager or a young adult. I am a member of society with views on the world. My opinion counts and matters. I have a voice that can be heard. My options have opened tenfold. YES I am still young. YES I will still make childlike decisions. BUT they will be few and far between. I am growing up, reaching up, and living. I am a determined being. I will let nothing defeat me. I will just forge a new path when given obstacles and still make my way around. I am set free on the world to do my own bidding. this is my life. here I am!!!
until the fates let us,
