20

So...its 1am on the 4th of February 2007.

This is my last day as being a teenager. honestly, thats jus hit me. my last day as a teenager. it feels weird.

now, its gonna be
"Hi"
"Hi..whats ur name?"
"Ross"
"Ah..how old are u?"
"umm..20."

20. i cant believe i will be 2 decades old. i still feel like a 14 year old.
i can actually say, altho ive had prob more downs than ups...ive loved being a teenager. all that awkward stuff you go through, all the things that u think 'depressen' you, the school boy crushes and heartbreaks...it has actually carved me makin me the person i am. God has thrown all these things in my way and ive come out with a few scratches. sure, they hurt but im here and alive.

am i ready to be 20? no. but i guess thats what we all feel when we start a new chapter.
come to think of it, im not really a kid anymore...as much as i want to be...im gonna have to be more responsible and more aware of stuff.
im in a state of disbelief that im goin to be 20 years old. hence the number "20" appearing and re-appearin every few words or so.

the twenties...what are they like? what will it be like?

actually, lets break it down..what happened from my teenage years:
- puberty (damn you spots!)
- high school and the prospective thoughts of university
- the pressure to get grades
- not gettin wedgied or bullied
- make great friends
- growing in responsibility and independence

what am i expectin from my 20s:
- the excess of puberty (spots...you guys are awful things)
- pressure from university
- pressure to get the best class i can get from uni
- a job (gulp.)
- more responsibiility and independence
- if God shows, my future wife (GULP.)
- children? ( GULP GULP.)
- money and tax (GULP.)

thats scary. God, please guide me through my twenties as You have guided me through my teenage years. may it be a blessed decade and an ever fruitful one in Your name. Amen.

20s...here i come! (mom, help me)
