 I turned 18 on a day off from school (Dec 29) So I had a bunch of friends over and we played video games all afternoon into the next morning. I didn't buy anything that was legal at 18 until about a month later, just wasn't something I really cared about doing. Sounds like you had a very eventful day though. 21 was a whole different story... but I will let you experience that for yourself | ||

And GL HF on the abstinence thing mate.. I'm sure you'll find it all worth it in the end. Good to hear you have a nice bible-study going on too. That can be a great blessing! | ||

Well I think it's idiocy, all it adds up to is a shitty sexlife when you finally do get a woman/wife/whatever. Your choice, a bad choice in my opinion. Also it's not really an achievement to, as a guy, not have sex. Trust me most of Team Liquid is probably right up there with you. | ||

It's unexplainable, but if you ask anyone they will confirm. Just try asking your parents or someone you know. I'm sure they will say the same - after 18 or 20 it just seems that you blackout for half a day or something cause time really seems to be going 4x times the speed. Not even joking! Happy Bday, tho Man that is so true. After i turned around 20 the time flies by me like a rocket. I remember some things like they happend a week ago but years has past. This is the worst part of being 'Grown up' | ||

My unaccomplished'ments (keke lol) however were 1. I did so shitty throughout high school that even to this day I have a nightmare every few months about failing to do a homework/classwork assignment/test 2. Even though my grandparents were so anal, I didn't appreciate them as much as I should have (they were the ones that raised me anyway) and I would disrespect them almost everyday? I was such a dick. My grandma is probably the only one in this world that can piss me off or make me angry haha but she was such a jerk (because I wasn't grateful to her as I should've been). 3.I can't think of anything else so ---> not getting a job or my drivers license at an earlier age. | ||

since some had to go early, it ended pretty quickly and me and the (then) singer of my band went to my house and had some more beer and watched a cool dvd (dismember - under blood red skies). i can't really complain. i'm not into throwing big parties and stuff because of the cleaning work that comes with it  i like the chilled stuff.accomplishments? well i guess... never having smoked (still not of course), not starting drinking too early. having a nice band and an awesome best friend, got to know my girlfriend 2 weeks after, having a chilled social-service job (at that time) and having school finished with a decent grade (although being lazy as fuck). nothing outrageous. but if you can chill... chill. | ||

At the age of 18, i was in my last year of high school and played cs and dota all day long so i fucked up bad. My spirits were so low that i cried myself to sleep on my birthday. I had a younger brother to look after and my father was working overseas full time. At the age of 21 now, i am doing second year in a degree and have a loving girlfriend and an aspiring brother who wants to become an electrical engineer. He has two more years of schooling left. For OP, enjoy your life as much as you can. Every day is a bonus so don't waste it. To love and to forgive are the two most important things everyone must have in order to have a fulfilling life. Peace be with you always. | ||

Though i'm very proud of my accomplishment, one we both achieved, not failing a class (not when I turned 18 and i'm still 'my winning streak' 22 years old by now. The day of my 18th b-day was a bit dull, had to study for exams comming up but the weekend after my family visited during the day and at night a held a party for me and my friends, great succes, never saw so many wasted people together in a house :-D. | ||

There wasn't really any accomplishments that I was overly proud of, and there wasn't anything that kept me from feeling accomplished, which I'm fine with. I don't regret any of it; I'm satisfied with the path I chose | ||
