    You should be happy!

    think of everything you can do now, buy alcohol, rent R18 movies, (legally) star in porn.. the opportunities are endless :D

    Getting older has its ups and downs... on one hand you are free to pursue anything u want... on the other hand you're a grown up. But be fair, I don't think u should look at it in a pessimistic way. Just look back at ur accomplishments, memories and think - hell yeah life is good up to now... now lets add to the collection of awesomness!

    Meh, that's how I think of it (and I know I'm only 15, but we start being grown ups earlier in Spain than America)

    much love xxxx

    I do not feel sorry you in any way

    the only alternative to getting older is dying

    wake up and live your life

    I think 30 and 50 is better than 18, though.

    Once i turn 18 im going to pretty much start my life. Get a wack of inheritance, buy stuff ill need, maybe some schooling...

    18 is a humans peak really, considering 20 was middle-age at one point.

    as if thanksgiving wasn't depressing enough i'm listening to a bunch of kids younger than me having a mid life crisis of some sort. Now i feel old. You aren't a grown up until you act like one. You can act like a child for the rest of your life and end up being "that guy". Ya know... the kind of creepy guy who lives with his parents at 25, the one who goes to pick up the keg in some kid's mom's mini van because his liscence is suspended for multiple DUIs, but he never misses a high school or frat party. Don't be that guy, but at the same time don't take life too seriously. It's a joke with many punchlines. if you put on the blinders and race forward like barbarro for the finish line then congratulations you're dead, but in the long run you're dead anyway. Reminds me of that Frost poem Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Eve. Live for the moment, but hold on tight to your dreams. Life really only began for me at 18... well maybe 16. but still ya got a lot of livin and dyin to do. 18 to 23 has been a real trip. 23 to 24 is only crazier so far.

    Yeah, sittin' on top of 62 years and hearing some pathetic whining about being 18, I stand by "get over it"....I live in a reality based world and have little patience for pointless whining. Actually I thought the whole thing was a joke till the little dear says I'm an asshole... poor little thing

    Its life changing and a wake up call she shouldn't have called you a A hole and you shouldn't have told her to get over it. Time to move on
