The last day
Today (Wednesday) is my last day of being 20. Not only that, it is my last day of being a transitional adult. Tomorrow I will be a full-fledged adult able to exercise all the rights our government cares to bestow upon it's citizens. I find it odd that the right to purchase alcohol is the last legal right given in our country, especially since I've been able to buy cigarettes for three years now. Smoking will kill me faster than drinking, especially if given a three year head start.
Speaking of last days, I'm crossing off the days until the last day of summer classes. That day will be the 27th of July and it will be a glorious day. It'll be a sunny day with a slight breeze and birds chirping, even if it's a raining and gusty and the birds are attacking people.
In the last few days, I have been quite busy and not getting nealy enough sleep. That's why I can't think of anything else worthy of mentioning in this world-class blog. Instead, I'll just dangle a carrot of expectation in front of you by promising an interesting post soon about something political, economical, social, theoretical, practical, inspirational, and perhaps even interesting-al. Intrigued yet?

Thanks Frog! I was going to send you an invitation to my barbeque tonight (just so you could get some mail) but I thought that might make you wish you weren't at camp.

Side note: I awoke today and actually felt older. It was weird.

you are an offical adult when you hit 25 in the states. You still have to wait to rent cars.
