When you're five...the world is a wonderful place..... Full of chew toys......sandboxes.....a beautiful Mom and a Dad(who is actually Superman). Yup....Life is bliss....Of course, you would learn later that it is, in fact, Ignorance that is bliss. But for now, you hold hands with your playmate and giggle while you imagine that the little lump of sand, which you have magnificently constructed, is a grand castle.
When you're eight, every day seems like a century. There is soooooo much time to play, to watch TV, to read comics, to talk to your friends (not that there is much to "talk" about). To sum it up, 24 hours seems like too many hours in a day.... Your Mom and Dad are so lucky to be grown up. They can buy whatever they want...eat whatever they want.... and best of all....They don't have to go to school!!! Yup, being an adult is awesome!! You can't wait to throw those mutiplication tables out the window.... What torture you are subjected to!!! If only you could be an adult! Then you could eat all the ice-cream you want....
You're ten now... All around you, you see your seniors laughing, pranking each other and being "superior". AH!! If only you could be teenagers like them.... being an adult can wait. First, you want to have fun like your seniors. Yes.....being a teen is paradise. You get to be in-charge for once. You get to go out on your own.... and you get allowances.....SWEET! Why is time so dreadfully slow? It feels like you've been ten for eons..... Dear Lord, will you ever turn thirteen?
At looooooooong last, YOU'RE THIRTEEN!!!!!! YES!!!! REJOICE!!!! Finally, life has begun!Woah....hold on....what's going on? Why are your parents suddenly so disapproving all the time? Why do they disagree to everything? WTF!!!! You're freakin' thirteen!!!! You're older now! You can be more independent....right?!!! You decide to leave that aside and finally start having some fun with your friends. Being a teenager is fun, you suppose. But it's weird.....because now that you're actually a teenager.....it doesn't seem as GREAT as you thought it would be. But, of course, you're learning more about stuff around you....You're growing up..... And one day, you're suddenly........WTH????? You're fourteen? When did that happen?
You're fifteen now. People around you are so pressurising......GAWD!!! Do they ever stop? YOU'RE A HUMAN, FOR GODSAKE!!!! Where the hell did all the years of your life go??? Last time you checked you were only freakin' TEN!!! Time seems to be running now..... But you are desperately trying to slow it down..... Why must 24hrs be so short? How does anyone get anything done in a day? You want to stop growing up..... You want to have fun....just like you always dreamed you would.....
What is your life turning into???
And this, my friends.....is the story of my life..... Our lives.... The life of a teenager...
What a funny life, huh?
And people wonder why we're so high strung......
