17. *Blinks* 18.

Wow.

*picks mouth up off the floor*

This is crazy.
This is insane.
This is wild.

But, at the same time, this is true.

I'm now an "adult."


I no longer have a limit on how many people can be in my car at one time. (Meaning I can fit as many people as it i'll hold, not just two!)

I can vote now with the fate of the country resting on my shoulders. (No pressure. ;) )

I can become a truck driver. (According to my friend, Ruth.)

I can be tried as an adult in a court of law. ("Don't do anything stupid, Giann." - Wise words from Nanny. :)  )


It's all scary but at the same time exciting! (I mean, seriously, this TeenPacter can actually vote now! :) )


These past few weeks have been kinda surreal. I don't think it has settled in yet that I'm 18.

Anyway, I had a lovely birthday.

I made a cookie in a cup,

watched TV,

gave cupcakes to my kids,

ate at my favorite restaurant, had Steel City Pops for the first time, and enjoyed time with my family.
