18...

I guess I haven't quite got my mind wrapped around the idea of Turing 18 yet, it seems like such a lovely age really, but I haven't quite built up any excitement for it. I feel like everyone around me has always been so excited for reaching this milestone of growing up, but to me the great mountain everyone sees in this birthday, is simply just a pebble in my eyes. I don't quite see the excitement of gaining such great responsibility in life, turning 18 means being an adult, having to put your future in your own hands. I mean I really want to be the person who crafts my future into what I want it to be, but I m not sure if I'm quite ready for such a great task.

A few Things I want to accomplish or start while I enter my adulthood.

1.Go to, and Graduate College with a degree in something I enjoy doing.
(as of right now, Human Services, So I can be an adoption counselor)

2.Volunteer as often as I can.

(more than I do now, and for something more than playing bingo)

3.Plant Trees.

(I want to designate a day in which I plant a tree every year.)

4.Try to complement someone everyday.

(raising someones spirits for just a second can end up going a long way)

5.Keep a Journal.

(because I will never know, what I might forget later down the road.)
