As I lay on my bed and gaze at the stars through my open window; I think about what is coming. What am I about to be up against, is this time really already here? Am I actually about to adventure out into the real world? Yes. Now is when I actually figure out who I really am and what I want to finally become. I start to pay bills and get a real career; college seems to be finally here. I worry about if I will make it. There is the stress of moving out and being on my own, as well as not having “mommy” and “daddy” there whenever I need something. This is just life, it’s the way things have to be. It’s growing up.
