Let me hit you with something:
You're not as mature as you think you are.

There is a certain air of futility to the maturity we are subjected to.
Independence of a person muddled with proving social validity.
18+ is overrated. Or scary. Or both.
It is convenient in the accessible adult notion of it all.
That is undeniable. But the necessity?
Of course it is evident, and by not complying to attaining every legal accolade, yes one surely falls behind.
Additional to the number absorbed in the novelty, this flurry of licenced bliss is not really that scintillating.

Just a short post to say, you are not as mature as you think you are.
(And Stop thinking otherwise.)
