| Well, tomorrow (January 3) is my birthday, and I'll be turning 16. People say this is supposed to be one of the "big" birthdays, but I don't really see why. I'm still in the middle of highschool, nothing's changed with that. I'm still legally a minor, so nothing different there. (And heck, I doubt 18 or 21 will be that special either--I'm not going to be smoking, buying porn, or drinking, lol) So what's the big deal? I doubt this year will be all that much different from the last.
It seems like lately I've just stopped caring nearly as much about holidays and whatnot. Sure, they can be fun, and it's nice to have the whole family around... But it's only a few days out of the year. Like Christmas this year; sure, it was enjoyable, but that after a couple days, things just went back to the way they were, like they always do. A few things are different, such as my new computer that I got, but objects don't really make that much of a difference. Everything still feels the same.
I dunno, I guess I'll just chalk this post up for my tendancy towards the pessimistic side of things; part of me likes the fact that things don't change much, and part of me doesn't... So don't pay too much attention to it. The last couple months have been better than the few before them, so I guess I can't really complain. | |
