To turn from a boy into a man
I'm not entirely sure why I'm writing this, to be honest, but perhaps you will connect with it, Basil.
Well, I'm 20 years old now. I have a job and I go to school. I've loved, been heartstruck, lost loved ones. I've seen cancer, I've drank whiskey. I had my first kiss and I had sex for the first time. I had my second kiss and had sex again and I liked it even more the second go around. I've passed tests and I've failed tests. I've both yelled and smiled at strangers, some of which deserved the act.
I've also been laughed at, cried, smiled, tried and failed at many things. I can recall a few times in the past when I made fun of a friend behind their back. Now I know better and I defend my friends when an insecure interloper delivers a cheap shot.
And, in the past, I grew up. I don't know when it happened, but somehow I actually became an adult and stopped pretending to be one. Reflecting helps to cope. Anyway, here is something from my childhood that helped me transition: [url=http://i.imgur.com/RBHlJ.jpg]Link.[/url] Share something, anything, if you like. Try to stay on the vague topic at hand. Thank you.

Holy nostalgia bomb, batman. I am well, miss. If you noticed, there's a little painting of my life in the opening text which should describe it abstractly. How's your life, though?
I'm about to go to sleep so all I want to say is that Calvin and Hobbes was one of the best parts of my childhood too :I
I post it a little while ago, but I think it's relevant.

I know. Sometimes you just feel the desire to be sappy, though.
Hooray for growing older and old.
Puberty is amazing.
