Becoming

an adult. So im a semi- fresh highschool grad of 10'- in community college already (which i am thankful & blessed for the grants & scholarship i recieved, got my permit at 17 & license @ 18. My abuelito gave me a cool 97' ford escort as a graduation gift. So anyways i dont want to say im an adult because i think im still young (hint "teens" 8-teen") not quite an adult yet, but becoming.. However its good to notify yourself that when you are driving, you have to be an adult. My dad says that. & i can agree because for the past 12 months i've been driving, you kinda have to think for some of these older adults that think they are going the speed limit & some of these younger kids who haught there little scions & box cars that have there heads in their butts. I asked God to give me patience bcuz Lord knows lately i've been having some trouble on the road. & by God's grace i have not got into a car wreck once & have not gotten stopped either! & the patience he gives.. I almost got into a couple of altercations already!!! The christian girl that i am almost turned into a fleshly monster honking at everyone!! i've honked at more ppl in a day than my mom did & does her whole life. I have not used a curse word at anyone on the road i only use "freakin idiot" & "jerk" when ppl are really being dumb. But i've been trying to keep my cool. I hate caring what other ppl think about me or my driving. Sometimes i turn fast just to get out of ppls way so they wont hit me from behind. & it annoys me when ppl drive to slow.the speed limit is like 55 & the guy in front of me is making me drive 40mph. I hate HEB parking lots & any other closed in spaces i have to park at. Anyways you can deff tell im not an adult yet is how i get back in my car-. On the passengers side! I realize whos driving again?? oh thats right-me. bcuz i was so use to riding with my mom all these years & i'd goeverywhere with her. it's so automatic that i immedately go to the passengers seat.. sometimes i forget that im the only one driving. & you're deff becoming an adult is when you open your purse & like 50 receipts are comming out!! Where did all these come from?? I get treated a little differently too.. It's weird.
Welcome to adulthood.
