Analysis

I turn 16 in two months.

More accurately, 11 weeks, two days.

All that math I just did, is too much for the summer,

so I do not think I will be counting the hours.

All the days together, is 78.

Although I do count the days, I do dread it fearfully.

Let me tell you what happens when you turn 16.

(Not all apply to everyone.)

*If you are an LDS female, you become
a member of the Laurels.

*Dating is acceptable and encouraged.

*Boys no longer have to be found as gross.

*It is encouraged that you ask a boy
to Girl's Choice dances

(Such as Sally Hawkins, Preferance, Morp, et.c).

*It is encouraged that you accept invitations
to Boy's Choice dances

(Such as Homecoming, Prom, et.c).

*It is encouraged that you get your Drivers License a.s.a.p.

*It is encouraged to act more mature and stop running around the school.

*It is encouraged (by fellow class members) that you sleep in until 11 a.m. on the weekends.

You are entirely a member of the High School.

*You are in an entirely new place that is bigger and better and frightening.

*It is encouraged that you search for employment during the school year.

*You must plan a lurpin' awesome Sweet Sixteen that people rave about to their friends.

(Well, it'd be nice!)

*You must get fantastic grades and work as hard as possible so you can get into Juillard.

Or become a Cardiologist.

Or a Pyrotechnic.

Or a Cosmetician.

(One who works with make up)

*Chick-Flicks become harder and more painful to watch ...sometimes...

*You must make sure you have amazing friends to stick by you.

*You must have money set aside for random things.
*You realize that being lactose intolerant is annoying.

*You realize that it is inconvienent that meat makes you sick.

...and a bunch of other reasons too.

See! I have fantastic reasons to wish I wasn't turning 16!

...Not really...
