Ahhh one month left to 16.
Honestly, 16 doesn't feel as monumental to me as much as others make it out to be. Sweet sixteen, let me break it down for you.

- You can now drive! (No you can't since you live in Manila silly)
- You can now date! (No you can't because your a mormon)
- You're past the age of consent! (Also no because you're a mormon)
- You can change your name! (I think this all comes back to the mormon thing huh)
- You can get a job! (Already have one 60 hours a week)
- Income Tax!!!! (Kill me now)
Look, I'm not annoyed about it, but I don't have anything in particular to look forward to. I'm most excited about looking more like my age because 15 has grown out on me fast. I mentioned in a previous blog post how many people I hear the disappointed "Oh you're only 15?" from. Ohh my days it's gotten so much worse since being in the Philippines. It's like I'm automatically and adult in their eyes because I'm mature and tall.
I don't know how other people take it, I have a little friend group of 3 friends who are all 20-21, and also all guys coincidentally. Broo no clue why thy didn't run when they heard I was 15, like they were shocked and then just went with it. I feel bad for one of them since he wasn't there when we had that conversation, and I think he started being a little into me until he asked. Whhyyy does this happen to me he was so cute. But we still hung out again, I seriously don't know how they perceive me.
To be fair I'm thrilled to be past the age of consent, not because I'm gonna go hoe off now but because I feel less like a child. But put it this way, even if my magic fairy god mother came and asked if I wanted to turn into a 19 year old, I'd still say no. I've still got lots to work on in the character development and career development side of things, and that just means when I turn 19, I'll be an extra amazing person.
And also I'd be able to finally date a 20 year old legally.
