I am finally turning 18 , stepping into the adult world , well almost. I have waited to attain this number ( isn't age just a number ) since I don't know how long. Now that I'm 18 I can actually do the following ( kick yourself if you think even one is worth looking forward to):
a) Vote , like my vote is going to change the way things are in the country.
b) Get a permanent driving license , big deal everyone has it (even kids )and now when I see 12 year olds driving , I feel like shaking them back to life , shouldn't they be cycling or watching tom and jerry instead of flaunting their activas at 100 km/hr . Things were so different when I was a kid.
c) Sign up for things or sites that allow only adults. I did that before too , now the only difference will be the clicking on the little box will be guilt free.
d) Donate blood , this one is a real cause , but my HB doesn't allow , screw it.
e) Marry , noooooooooooooo , I am still a sixteen year old at heart and this requires a lot of responsibility something that is coming to me only after 30.Here I am not talking about career related responsibility, I am quite serious about that.
Nothing except getting a driving license excites me. Thankfully I won't have to tell my mama to drive me across the city ( she feels that she is my taken for granted chauffeur) .
I always thought I'll become matured or atleast act matured when I am 18. Alas! How wrong I was?Being truly independent, means a lot and takes a lot. And I also know sooner or later, the time will come to take control of my life and I'll have to behave and think like an adult. Scared I am, but I think I'll certainly be able to call myself a qualified full fledged adult. Right now I don't fell any difference , I'm still the sixteen year old I was two years back.
For now I am going to celebrate my first steps into adulthood by watching 'Chronicles of Narnia 'and a shopping spree ( probably exclusively for me ) something we girls are really good at with my best buddies.

Physics live! Direct from the lecture hall
I am using my laptop illegally in the physics class and so was tempted to write.Here is a live commentary. Right now we are being scolded by our teacher lets call him man of principles (MOP ) More than physics we are taught to have principles in our life( which is good but why in physics class).
Apparently its our last class and he is mad at us for sitting at the back benches.Now he is telling that we are never going to get a teacher like him ever again , rest of the teachers are just here to read out of books. GAWD. It's story time , a colleague of his being a maths teacher asked him to explain integral to him .Mr MOP get a life.
Finally we are doing physics .Okay MOP is writing the Schrodinger wave equation like we can not read it from our books.Why is he inaudible when he is teaching and loud enough when expressing his feelings to us? Won't it be cooler if we are allowed to use laptops in class , atleast now I'm listening carefully to take down the notes(trying to multitask). We would save so much paper with the use of laptop.The class is getting boring yet again .Now my use of laptop is grabbing a lot of attention and before I attract MOP towards myself I'll stop writing.
