the dreaded and anticipated birthday
Why am I dreading tomorrow?
This is the biggest day of my life so far!
...and I wish it wasn't happening.
I'm not afraid of growing old, but I'm scared of leaving my childhood. 18 is a big step. This birthday isn't just "one year older and wiser, too!" This year is a leap into real life.
If I'm arrested I have to go to real man's jail now!
I just want to scream "NOT YET!" I wanna hide from it. Why can't I have just one more year of bliss? Or maybe can I skip this year all-together and go on to 19?
Tomorrow I will officially be an adult. I thought I was so prepared for this day. Why oh why did I want to rush it?? Please slow down time...let this night last forever. Must I wake up in the morning and be different?
But I won't be different. I'll still be me,
right?
I'm not going to change overnight, whether I'm a legal adult or not! So cheer up!
Rome wasn't built in a day and the world isn't ending tomorrow!
I AM GOING TO BE 18! And I'm excited.
...or, so I keep telling myself...

You make me laugh! :) I think you and I are more alike than we think haha! I felt those exact same feelings when I turned 18. My whole life that was the moment I had waited for and then when it was coming it was the last thing in the world that I wanted. But I hope you're starting to enjoy it now!! And realize just how fun it can be!! I still can't believe that I got MARRIED at 18! I had definitely lost my mind haha jk! Anyways, 18 is a whole new life with so many more options!! Enjoy every second girl!!! And know you can ALWAYS talk to me!!
