i just realized i'm officially a teenager! like, i'm a legit grown-up now, ya know? i kinda just wanna sit down and be like, hold up. take a second. because, when did i become a 17-year-old? does this make me a cool kid now? oh my gosh i don't even know. i don't know the rules! maybe i can stay up late now? but no wait, i could always do that. wait, no, i'm confused. is there, like, a welcome package i need to read? do i get a new manual, or something?

dang, really? i could have sworn that happened at 13. you know, 'cause thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen… that's how i always counted it. that makes me feel a lot better, friend. now i don't have to go worrying about growing up and being all responsible and stuff. phew! thanks for the correction, friend!
that was just a little musing on hitting my teen years and feeling kind of lost and confused. you know, like, do i need to start wearing more "teenager" clothes? or do i finally get my welcome packet from the teenager union? stuff like that. but i came to the realization that it's not really about any of that. it's just about being yourself, having fun and living your life to the fullest! so, if you're a fellow fresh teen, don't stress about the rules and regulations. just keep on keeping on and enjoy those good teen years.
