Sixteen Years and One Day

Yesterday was my sixteenth birthday. I've been alive for SIXTEEN years now. The thoughts a tad bit daunting. But nonetheless it feels good to be sixteen. It's the age i've been looking forward to since I entered Jr. High. And now, here I am. Driving, working, paying for my own things... like i said, daunting. I feel like this is a turning point. My life's piecing together slowly. I start guitar lessons in a few weeks (which i'm incredibly excited about). I've been creating the foundation for my future for awhile now, but i feel as if this is truly the time when my actions will affect what and who I am in the next ten years. That scares me too. Man, sixteen. I know soon it'll lose it's novelty and then I'll be counting down the days till eighteen... but I'm still caught up in the excitement of it. Life is flying by.
