Growing Up
i still go back to this day and think about how much i had as being a little kid i think about how much fun i had playing with the neighborhood kids we would play many many games but someone would always get hurt i think about how i never had a care in the world i would just run around like a free butterfly. but now that im growing up everything is just so different from now and then. when i was younger we were asked what we would like to be when we grow up. so we would just say silly things like a ice cream man and other silly jobs but now when i am asked what do you wanna be i have to think of something more serious something that will get me through life it's so weird now. I am almost to the age where i can live on my own, and relay on myself. I never really thought i would grow up so fast. now i know why everyone says "oh your growing up soo fast" i see it now. I will be in college withinn 2 years or soo and on my own and it's kinda scary. I never pictured myself living without my parents. sometimes i wish i could go back to those free years where nothing mattered, i had no stress and nothing to worry about, but iknow i can't. high school is what i think changes you. everything kicks in and to many people it's scary. it's amazing how yoour school years fly right past you. my freshman year i kept telling myself oh i got 4 or 5 more years before i gotta get my act together but my sophomore year was the year i noticed that grades mattered if you wanted to go to a very good college so last year was probably when i grew up and it was the changing point in my life. Everything changes so fast and there is nothing you can do about it.

I agree. I believe in all honesty, everyone is a kid at heart. No matter what. Though, MOST people still need a lot of growing up to do. No person can ''find themselves'' when they're still a child. Everyone; always, needs a little growing up to do.
ReplyDeleteI agree when you say everything changes so fast and there is nothing you can do about it. For me looking back there is hundreds of things i would have never done and hundreds of things i would have done, but i feel now it's to late to go back and make those changes. Many high schoolers thing high school isn't something they have to take seriously but in order to actually go somewhere in life grades to matter, people you hangout with matter, and decisions you make will affect you the rest of your life.. I now wish i would have known that before.
ReplyDeleteI remember my first day of high school like it was yesterday. I do agree that we do grow up fast but we dont notice it tell we are almost graduated then we gotta get our act together. I miss them child hood days when parents didnt care what you were doing, just as long as you were home when the street lights were on ha. now they care about everything, they dont want you getting into drugs and getting drunk but we know why they do that now, they want us to be successful because soon we will be on our own.
ReplyDeleteIf there is anything that scares me the most in this world it is growing up. I would have to agree with you on the career comment. As a kid we could be anything we wanted. Now we know very well that isn't true...
