I'm sixteen, too, and while I have fun, and enjoy my childhood, I cannot wait to be out on my own.
I grew up in a hard-working Hungarian immigrant family, we had enough money to have good food, warm clothes, and some leisure. However, I'm the youngest of four. Not only that, but the next sibling above me is 28. So, naturally, I'm pretty spoiled.
Personally, I am treated as the baby, and I don't blame them, I AM young and naive, and look forward to maturing. But acting like my opinions, etc. aren't valid annoys me to no end.
My parents will probably move as soon as I'm eighteen, and I couldn't be happier. I'll rent an apartment with my best friend, attend the community college in my town, have a job and a car.
Dude, I love playing with my stuffed animals! I still have this bunny with overalls and a hat I got when I was five, but I lost the hat. I think maybe I ate it. :P
There IS a fine line, I agree. Don't think I'm some superior acting arrogant person, I really enjoy hanging out and talking to other teenagers. I just can't wait until I'm on my own. Life, to me, is a learning experience.
Child of the Seventh age, I must confess, I didn't expect the responce you gave me. I was mainly saying that from a personal point of view, because although I will attend community college, I have no idea when I'll actually earn a degree, if I will at all.
