an 18-year old boy will spell connoisseur as 'contasuer' and thermostat as 'thermesdat', but he might sometimes still manage to pull off being charming. he may do what is bad for his health, like smoke lots of cigarettes, and drink lots of caffiene, but he will always stay strong and skinny (at least until 18 turns into 40). he will confuse you, and tease you, and make you angry, but he will always be your best friend. that is just the plain and simple truth of it.

i, on the other hand, will not do much reveling in 18. i will still get massiveheadaches and want to sleepforthreemorehours. probably i will spend the next year working, and going to college, and always being addicted to some new tv show (but only if it's already on dvd, and not about a crime scene). but, still, i am excited about what the next year will even mean.
