18
Fri Jul 13, 2007 10:31 EST (UTC -5)So, today I am 18. I am an adult (not a dolt). I don't feel 18 -- I still feel about 16 -- but from now on, things will be different. Here are some things I can now do:
- Sign a contract
- File a lawsuit
- Vote
- 24-year-olds
- Smoke
- Get drafted! All right!
So, basically, I can do everything a normal person can do except decide what sort of beverages I want to drink. And how am I going to celebrate? I'm going out to a restaurant with a few friends tonight, so that should be nice. I should mention that today is also my twin sister's birthday, and she's going out with her friends for dessert at a different restaurant. I think this is the first time we've had separate events for our birthday. I would have had more friends with me, but a lot of them are away, or they have to work. That's the thing about having a birthday in the summer. Everyone's always doing something else. Oh well. I'm sure I'll still enjoy my birthday.
Here's a backwards music video. They must have done the lipsynching backwards so it would be forwards with the film reversed. "A" for effort.
Check out some interesting islands and lakes.

Hey,
Happy Brithday, we're now 18. Sorry I couldn't make it to your celebration, or even let you know. I was going to go, but I've been busy with school and while doing homework on Friday, I completely forgot. Perhaps we can "hang" later this month (hopefully week).

Congratulations! Gonna use any of your new privileges soon? Surprised to see 18, the age is 14 up here.

I don't think so. What is 14 the age for?
