I Am At Peace Today

It's been a very nice day, nothing big or flashy. Just calm, serene and tranquil, just like I like. Today I turned 18, woke up at 4:45 this morning and the realization hit me like me like a ton of bricks (but, you know, less so because I had JUST woke up). And it's strange be cause i didn't feel anything. I don't feel any older, I don't feel any burst of joy, excited like i do every year. Just..calm. So I get up, get dressied up, make my way to the bus stop (I didn't have to be at school today, but my friend was gonna be alone and I didn't want her by herself, plus I didn't feel like being pent up in this house), went to school. I chilled with my friend, we joked and talked the whole time, my other friends who didn't arrive at school didn't even rememeber my birthday, which was fine by me. I got picked up around noon by my mom, she took me back to her job (idk why she didn't wait till after school but whatever), where i just napped till the end of her shift. Then we went to a Walmart, I got to pick out a cake and had the lady but "Happy Birthday", got some other groceries, then we went home, and I've just been chilling. I talked to my bf a bit, but he had another engagement, which is also fine. So like now, I'm just chilling in my room, listening to music, like any other night in my own solitude.

[b]It does NOT feel like I'm 18[/b]

One of the only major changes I've noticed was when I logged on to SW earlier today instead of being in the 16-17 group I was placed in the 18-21 group (whoop whoop, I've leveled up!).

An now that I think of it, I didn't get any gifts either (other than that cute top with Deadpool as a clownfish on front and it says "Finding Francis" earlier this week), which is also fine. Not only do I have everything I need: Family, wonderful friends (friends of all kinds), loving (when he wants to be ) boyfriend, a supportive church, a (not so) bright ahead of me, I mean what more could I possibly want?

And that, is why I'm at peace.

Welp, cheers to entering adulthood!! And may I make it another 18 years! 😊💖😝
