Growing up birthdays were the best! You start recounted down the days starting the day after your birthday. I think that the best part about growing up is your birthday. You may not mature as fast as your age but you still gain another year every year.
Your adolescent years are by far the best because every couple years some thing great happens, or you are able to do more and more. Here is what I mean;
Starting at 13 is when it "starts" you gain a lot more responsibilities and you become an official teenager.
Then the next year is the 14th birthday, and in most states that means you are able to get a little close to your freedom by getting your drivers permit.
Then your sweet sixteen comes and you are able to get your intermediate license and with that you don’t have to drive with your parents everywhere when you want to drive.
The good thing about seventeen is that, for one, you have your own magazine named after you. As well as you are able to get into rated R movies, legally. Which most teenagers go to a lot of movies anyways, now there is a bigger variety to choose from.
Then comes eighteen, you are able to vote, buy lottery tickets, and cigarettes, (which are very bad, I’m just stating the obvious). You are also able to get tattoos, any piercing without a guardian along with gambling in a few states such as Minnesota. As of 18 years of age you are considered an adult.
After that there is only one more birthday you look forward to and that is your 21st birthday because now you really are an adult, you are able to drink alcohol, legally and gamble in the rest of the states.
However, after your 21st birthday, you are considered old, and nobody likes to be considered old. So after that it is all down hill from there. I mean after reaching like 25, you really don’t look forward to any other upcoming birthdays.
A lot of really un fun things come with age, like winkles and memory loss, also your flexibility.
