"Young hearts can go their way."- Lester Chambers
And so, the time has finally come! Within two hours I'll be a legal adult, and after nearly eighteen years, I'll be free from all that has come before me prior to this point.
I'm excited to finally be able to shed my teenage years away, in hopes for a more satisfying adulthood. This upcoming day has been one that I've been waiting for my entire life and I still can't believe that it's finally come.
I'm not one to think of time as a flyby, but rather something of an internal journey.
I wish I could say that these past few years have been easy but that would be a blatant lie, one which I wouldn't want to tell in any case.
I feel quite liberated today, on the eve of the rest of my life. But the thing that strikes me the most is the fact that I can officially do just about anything I ever wanted to when I was younger.
I didn't ask for anything material-wise this year because I've gotten more than I could ever ask for already: My girlfriend, Jenna. For the first time in a very long time, thanks to her, I've found peace and happiness within my life.... kinda like the first time I ever heard David Bowie's "Heroes."
It's been an amazing year for me: Finding Jenna, Getting into Film School, Graduating High School, Meeting Jared Padalecki, Winning a third Supernatural writing contest, and now overall turning eighteen! This year kicked ass.
Even in all of my bliss this year, after trying so hard to find it for years upon years before, I've tried to be there as much as I can for the people in my life.... and that'll never change.
But even as it's a little scary, I'm ecstatic to see what life has got in store for me in this coming year.
This is the point of no return for me. No re-entry....
