A teenager in the Oxford Dictionary is defined as "a child between the age of 13 to 19,however children of age 18 or 19 are called young adults as opposed to teenagers".The blog's name is due to the fact that in exactly 3 months but 6 days,I will be 18 and a young adult, if referring to the definition above.But it's not as if something is going to change.I'll still be living with my parents and sister.The load of studies will predominantly be present.However,it does make such a vast difference,because in the eyes of the Indian Government,you are a legal adult,resulting in voting and whatnot.After the nailbiting results of CET, applying in various colleges for an admission will be quite a blood-sweating task.
When I made decisions for myself, that is, without asking for my mom or dad's opinion, and the result turned out pretty good,the thought that entered my head was "It's nice to be mature". But what exactly constitutes as maturity? A 6-year old may think selecting the best colour of crayon for colouring is mature,a ten-year old may think not crying when they fall is mature,a 15-year old may think not whining about SSC exams is mature and so on and so forth.It's not easy to make decisions in life.When we face hard decisions,we watch kids play about and think,"Ah,to have a life of a toddler!!".However,do we realize that the child also has to grow up and eventually face the same hardships we go through?
I hope no one has seen my previous blogs as even the thought of it in my mind makes me cringe. Here is a quote from my so-called mature life as a SSC student:
"" As usual,tomorrow is personality development and i finished my studies in 15 minutes..can you believe it??? I curse my school 'coz they have kept geography after P.D.So dumb..agar geography ho jata,then mom would allow me to have fun..actually.I am going through a lot of pressures now.My friend,who I know since 13 years,is making me feel doubtful of our friendship.I never had thought that she speaks two thing at 2 places.I can't help it if I'm a vegetarian...so why should she insult me by saying"main ghaas phoos nahi khaoongi".After all,it's my wish what I want to eat. ""
The cherry on the cake is that till now I was under the impression that what I had written was quite important and in another post,I had clearly emphasized the fact that talk about studies will be often as it is the year of SSC.Memory is quite a fickle being as I had forgotten about these high school dramas and the consequential post in the blog.Another post had 3 poems about music,actors and some unknown thing which I am happy to forget. In which I had included a genre of music as rock metal(dumb me!!!!).On asking my sister how she ever agreed with me when I asked whether my blog was mature,she quite coolly said,"I didn't..I just crossed my fingers and lied to you.".Well,not exactly the words she used,but you get the point.
As people who are reading this are mostly people I know personally, you know that my HSC exams are over,however the dark cloud of CET looms over us students,as we try to satisfy our minds with the fact that we do not have to learn 5 page answers with every word exact about how vapour pressure affects boiling point and so on.The reason I am even writing this blog is because my mom frequently says "an idle mind is a devil's workshop". But my idle mind tends to spend too much time in Farmville. In December, where my mind was wandering between the morbid thoughts of Prelims,Boards AND CET, I had decided to compile my notes on Facebook as one post on Blogger.However,I fear to see what little maturity will be visible on seeing those notes.
So,I conclude this post.Hopefully,the next will come after the 12th of May.Keep your friends close,enemies closer,best friends stuck with Araldite(adhesive used to stick pieces of wood),and relatives in the deepest corner of your heart.Take care..bye!!!
