Last weekend, my friend pointed out that I was starting my courses for my exams in 5 weeks! 5 WEEKS! Now in my mind that's when I become an 'young lady'! Part of me wants to be one because they have this position of authority and have independence but the other part of me wants to stay the child who dances around her living room on Saturday to her personalized Spotify playlist instead of doing homework, who doesn't understand grown-up things like bank statements and tax and most importantly, who loves Disney!(thus the quote at the start)
I mean, I guess I've started to grow up as I've picked my subjects. I knew what I want to do and didn't let anyone get in my way (even if that meant upsetting my mum a bit). The other thing I've had to do a lot recently is make decisions. Whether it is to have a yoghurt or a cake with my pepperoni pizza or whether to go in to school or not when I'm not feeling well, I find it challenging. I wish I was a little girl again so that my mum could make decisions for me (well the big ones, not the small ones cos I can do that myself cos I'm my own person #feminist )
A part of growing up that I like is that I find new things out about myself. For example, recently two of my friends L & A have started playing The Chain game at breaktime and I love watching them do it because not only does it challenge them it also challenges people who are watching from the sidelines.
So, I guess my conclusion is that I will grow up, not because I'm forced to but because I want to. I'm finding new things about me each and every day and I like doing that.
See you soon,
