Gaming time is slowly being replaced by revision time. School work is getting harder and harder.
I wish i could be younger again and not be pressured by exams and play games all i want again...

Anyone else feel like this as well?

Sarcastic replies will not be acknowledged

Honest.

When I was 6, I wanted to be older and an astronaut.

When I was 8, I wanted to be older and fly cars in the future or something.

When I was 12, I wanted to be 18 and all that shit.

Now?

You don't know what you got 'till it's gone.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)tl;dr bitchbitchbitchbitch I'm dead alreadySpoiler (click to show/hide)I'm 17, a bunch of close people I barely got to know except as a child died at the same fucking time period, Shit Blew Up, I almost died numerous times as a child, school is bureaucratic as fuck, everyone's just discovering themselves around me, I need to find solid work, society is going all sorts of places and so is technology, and I have to have majors in MATH, SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND ENGLISH in order to get ANYWHERE WHERE I'D EVER NEED TO BE IN LIFE... Oh, I also underwent several life-changing thought sessions, discovered that the world wasn't all sunshine and rainbows and pink lemonade, and quite frankly I don't even OWN a car (not to mention the numerous costs of a car, both fiscally and personally).

Also, my Generation (What is -probably- the latter half of Gen Y, although I'm sure those during the early stages loved eating asbestos from the ceiling every day without being able to count to Ammonia .-.) is said to be one of the first to live a shorter lifespan than their parents (Gen Z is lucky because they get the benefit of post-Technological Singularity and all these wonderful advancements like AUGMENTATIONS), and not to mention that they still pump all these brand new chemicals into EVERYTHING, and say that it's "Perfectly Safe", only for you to grow up 40 years later with A FORM OF GROTESQUE CANCER THAT WON'T LET YOU DIE and not being able to even sue a rock because "There's no way you can prove that our product gave you cancer unless you were specifically exposed to it for 40 years inside a bubble... fgt  :trollface:".

The majority of us will get arthritis because we like to phoen and shiet, Most of us will be just like Wilford Brimley and have diabetus, our children will have diabetus, we probably won't develop a cure for the next 200 years as we focus on things like the Iphone 400000XLRS, and most if not all of the Babby Boomers that run the general skeleton of society and/or economy (one good chunk of North America) will be ded which leaves Gen X to also take their spin on things UNTIL Generation Y has to take control (Which I actually want to see what Gen X will do when obtain'd elder status, because Generation X is essentially everything I look up to) to suddenly trickle into the hot seat of this mudball .-.

Generation Y world (Probably by at least 2057-60ish) sounds like fucking Demolition Man before the thawing of Simon Phoenix.

OPTIMISM HO

I have already come to the conclusion that I am already dead, and will not stop drinking/eating said chemicals.
Golly Gee Wiz, if I had to live in some sort of backwards timey-wimey limbo sci-fi ass-pull of a reality, I'd be 6 Years old again.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)tl;dr Sepia-Toned ChronocentrismSpoiler (click to show/hide)The sun has this beautiful fucking warm glow, the sky is really blue, the grass is really green and smells like... grass... I have this wonderful fucking boundless imagination and I always manage to make the best of things just by sitting in the living room and watching the sun set (like aliums invading), I start questioning my own existence and my (our) place in the universe physically, I'm 3 grades smarter than my own group, I can get proper sleep and wake up at 8, I actually want to get up and watch cartoons all day, I'm entitled to all the things a child is entitled to (screw bread crust), I play the SNES all day, Cheat Codes are the shit, I can run around the house if I want to, play with my Hotwheels cars, build a giant mess of legos, VHS still exists, the Library still exists, books are actually fun and I actually learn things that I've never known before in them, the internet is for porn GAMES, my tastebuds are still relatively young and everything tastes like fucking pure essence, growing up with a 70s kid and an 80s kid who quite literally are all a decade apart from each-other (save the black sheep -me-, who is 9 and then 19 years apart), poop jokes make you GOD, making fun of all the hit pop song artists and their songs (like Britney Spears during the 2000s hng) also made you GOD, TV in general was just mind-numbing fun (and a little bit of CARTOON violence smuggled in), Windows 98, there is no such thing as a Iphone or an Optical Mouse, Floppy Drives are awesome, MS Paint is the best photo editing software ever, the Ravine at the back of my house is still there instead of a Strip Mall, the most complicated math problem is "7x8x11x14x100,000,000,000,000,000/2", Music is new and exciting -and- I'm only beginning to explore that world for myself... everything is just so pure and innocent and naive and I honestly can get a good night's sleep at the end of the day instead of being high-strung or worn out, and yet still unable to take complete comfort in putting my head on a pillow in incredibly subtle fear for my own self and the well-being of the world around me.
Then again, with all the life experiences that I've ever had, I don't want to throw away my new-found morals, humanity, feels, peoples, and general personality and knowings.

But being forever a child, I'd never have to worry about that, anyways.

Tezuni:
I find waiting in life to be less productive than living in the moment, so I appreciate my situation at all ages.

Xrain:
Do I want to roll back the calender and be young again? Hell no, I worked my ass off to get where I am. I don't want to have to do all that again.

Although, If I could go back to being 10 with all my skills and intelligence... Well then, now that would be interesting.  >:D


You definitely get more freedom when you grow up. One of the big ones is the freedom to fail. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Failure teaches you a lot, it just means now you have to go and do all that crap again; this time with a much greater understanding. Don't be afraid to fail, be afraid to fail and not learn anything.

But as always increasing Freedom = Increasing responsibility. You will know you have matured a fair amount when that prospect doesn't scare you anymore.

TehHank:
 :)

I have a lot to look forward to then.

Tezuni:
Today was my last day of high school.  Suddenly, I feel lost.   What was I doing all this time... hmmm.
