Something that has recently seemed really weird to me is getting mistaken for another age. When I was younger, 12-16, people ALWAYS, always always always thought I was older. Sometimes astronomically older. Like one time when I was 12 or maybe 13, someone guessed that I was 21 or 22. Things like that were always happening to me in my adolescence. I was never mistaken for being younger, and barely anyone guessed my age. In fact I don't even know if they ever DID guess it right. It was always older. Even when I would go out with friends who were a lot older, like 18-20 years old, people would ask if I was their older sister!! Maybe it was because I have always been tall...I don't know. Either way, I have been really weirded out lately because when I was 17, the numbers started to round out, people usually guessed 17-19 and maybe even the occasional 20, but were a lot more on the money. But ever since I've turned 18, almost every person who has made any reference to my age has thought that I was YOUNGER than 18!! One instance was at work I was getting cigarettes for a customer out of the cigarette locker, and one of the cashiers came up and said "you can't open that unless you are 18" and I was like "I am 18" and they were like "really? I didn't think you were". Also someone recently told me "you do NOT look 18"...So it has just been a very weird transition, now I have to defend how OLD I really am, not how YOUNG I really was.
ALSO, here is a video of me singing "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" by Queen at my Cabrillo voice final. I know you can't see anything. It was dark. But you only need to listen, so it should be fine. :)
Also, sorry for missing a week :(
...Yikes, so many smiley faces...yikes.

A day late
The title of one of my favorite songs, and also the truth about my blogging. I did miss a day...
Recently I became a member of Costco. So far, it has been one of the coolest things I have done since turning 18. I really like Costco a LOT, I have spent a lot of time there in my life, and it holds quite a few good memories.
Hopefully there will be more exciting things that I do now that I am 18...But for now, that has been one of the highlights.
