Monologue

I can’t believe it. Today is finally the big day. The day I turn 18. All these years have always been leading up to this moment. I can do all the things I used to do without sneaking to do it now. Of course I can’t still legally drink, but that’s another story. This makes me wonder what I’m doing with my lief though. Pretty soon I’ll be 21, out of college and in the real world. Ill have bills to worry about. Rent, food, all those things. Wow, I guess I havent thought much of the fact that one day, I’ll be completely on my own and responsible for everything. It seems a bit daunting, but I guess it can’t be that bad. Everyone has to go through it after all. Well Ill save those worries for tomorrow because today is a day of celebration. Not only is it my birthday, its also New Years Eve. Ill make each birthday special, because in a few years, Ill be celebrating my birthday as a grown man, not a college freshman.
