HAPPY BIRTHDAY to me!
I am 18 years of age now.
I guess normally I should be at a bar right now, since its Friday night and Im not legal. But nay~ I spent the whole day studying Physics because I have on more exam coming up on Monday. My friends did however treat me to lunch at La Porchetta and Dennys. SO I didnt celebrate a little bit.
What does this all mean?
I have officially reached the
Age of the Majority
(
The Age of majority is the threshold of adulthood as it is conceptualized in law. It is the chronological moment when children legally assume majority control over their persons and their actions and decisions, thereby terminating the legal control and legal responsibilities of their parents over and for them.
The time when the law allows persons to do acts which, for want of years, they were prohibited from doing before.)
i.e

The porn industry is now accessible.(
Oh the possibilities! Er
Not much use to me)

No more free dental. (
Big bummer, this one is.)

Purchase and consume alcoholic beverages. (
Alcohol makes me cranky)

May stand for election to public office at Federal, state or local government level. (
I would never want to be working with a bunch of whinny, fickle simpletons
I mean, damn, have you seen the housing rates in New Zealand?!)

Able to vote. (
Wont make much difference anyway, since the poor and uneducated far outnumber the minority who knows whats best for the country)

Able to marry without parental consent. (
Man
I dont even know what a relationship is. I get the gist of things from books/comics etc.)

Buying/possessing firearms. (
Now this one could be useful
e)

Entry into a casino and being able to gamble. (
Also another useful one)

etc etc
...wow...so apparently its not going to make much difference (apart from the firearms thing, but those are hard to come by in little old safe New Zealand).
Wikipedia says that:
There are some qualities that symbolize adultness in most cultures. Not always is there a concordance between the qualities and the physical age of the person.
The adult character comprises:
Self-control - restraint, emotional control.
Stability - stable personality, strength.
Independence - ability to self-regulate.
Seriousness - ability to deal with life in a serious manner.
Responsibility - accountability, commitment and reliability.
Method/Tact - ability to think ahead and plan for the future, patience.
Endurance - ability and willingness to cope with difficulties that present themselves.
Experience - breadth of mind, understanding.
Objectivity - perspective and realism.

So yeah, Im going to try working on those. Also I have a few things on my To-Do list: learn how to cook, get a job, act more feminine and so forth.
