Being a grown-up has good points and bad points. I live in a beautiful condo and have fabulous friends. I make enough money to do fun things, and no curfew. My parents still love and worry about me, but for the most part, they trust me to make me own decisions, and only offer advice out of love, and when prompted.

Being a grownup also means being responsible - it means owning your actions and taking control of your own life. Sometimes, being a grownup is "being grownup;" not word vomiting and taking a few deep breaths and moving on.

Bottom line: being grownup, for the most part, rocks. Remember friends, YOU CREATE YOUR OWN HAPPINESS. No one else can make you happy or unhappy - it lies entirely within your power, and that is something that grownups learn. :)
