I’m finally LEGAL (in Alberta)
But do I feel more mature? Definitely not
Am I suddenly blessed with new found wisdom? Haha, I wish!
However according to the Alberta government, 18 years has provided me with enough experience to handle the big, bad world. That’s right, I can now go on field trips without parental consent. gasp!
More importantly, I can VOTE! All those time spent in politics based programs (Forum, MLA) has taken a toll on me & I am definitely very excited to finally get the chance to…exercise my legal right as a Canadian citizen, take part in a democracy…(insert the typical “why you should vote” curriculum they have drilled into our heads at school)
Also, I can now hit the clubbing scene and party like its nobody’s business. Hmm too bad I’m moving to BC in less than 1 week!!! (Speaking of which, I should maybe, possibly start thinking about actually packing)
Lastly, I can now emerge from the underground bingo scene. That’s right. Watch out old grandmas!
