I recently turned 21. Woo! So midst the celebration, I,
being the awfully pensive individual that I am, got to thinking. Supposably, I
am an adult now, fully fledged in every sense of the term, but it still scares
me when people, often younger kids, classify me as ‘a grown up’. Banished from
the kids table and forced into small talk and appetizers, I don’t think I’m
ready for all this scary shit yet.
In my mind, grown ups were the ones who knew everything and
were capable of great things. But I still call my mum if the washing machine is
making strange noises. And as much as I would like to think that I am a not
dumb person, there are something’s that no matter how many times I try, I have
just not learnt them yet.
