We aren’t able to stop becoming older and older; we don’t have chances to enjoy our childhood except in memories. I am 16 years old now, this is a special year for me because in China 16-year-old guy can get ID card and need to afford legal liability.
My mum always tells me to be mature however it’s hard for me. When I see other children playing in the housing estate, it will let me recall my childhood. I will imagine that when I was his age, I did those crazy things with my friends. Sometimes I have a dream about the story happened in my childhood. However, from past to now, I never consider myself becoming adult, even in the dream. The reason is that I am a realist, I prefer to live in the real life whether the result is good or bad, I just don’t want live in the dream.
But now, I think I have to consider being an adult. From my perspective, become an adult is not depend on my ages, degree or leaving home It rely on your inner heart. First I should change my way of thinking and childish behavior. Did you see an adult walking on the road and arguing with his mum on a silly topic? No, we are mature, we have already got our life criteria or spiritual pillar, we certainly know what should we care about and what we should give up temporarily. Second I believe after I have a job, and achieve all the standard in the first reason, I am an real adult. Like I said in this morning class, if people have a job, they have a stable financial support so they don’t need to ask their family for money that proves we are independently. However, Mr. Ward responded that job should be a well incoming job. From my viewpoint, each first time of people can’t be same as what they image. I have a lot of experience on this “theory”, that’s not feel good but the first is important. In this case people may ask money from their parents at first because they still need to survive in this world. But people have intention to be better and better so that they have chance to be independent, planning their rest of life to be much enjoyable. In conclusion, getting a job is the “capital” of being independent and being adult.
In the process of being adult, we need to give up so many things such as Xbox, basketball time, and I think a lot of things we did in our teenage life. Maybe, we are becoming older so our body function become worse, maybe we need to put all time in working, making families or some other things. If I have relaxing time, I will still try the things I did them during adolescence. I think this is an spirit, never let ages beat me.
And those are my opinion of being an adult, I will try my best to be an adult but I think it will take me long time. I believe I can’t get it before 20.
