growing up

Was just sitting back thinking about some of the stupid things i have done in the past. I'm not old(25) but I can notice a difference in the way I am now compared to who I was at 18-20. I really am suprised that I didn't get into more trouble. If I think back about certain situations I get a wierd feeling in my stomach just because I know that luck was the only thing that got me through. Most the regretable times were brought on by a mixture of anger & budweiser. In fact over probably the last ten years the only times I have got arrested, wrecked trucks, or got into problems with my girl or by boys was due to alcohol. It was also during dry times when stuff like this would happened. Gotta love the green.

Anyway.. was wondering if some other folks could reflect back on the ways they have changed over the years. Like at what age will I be old? I live in college town and most folks say after 25 your to old for the bars/clubs but I feel young. Anyways this is my first post I'm def toking and toking. later

Well I live in the state capital of Wisconsin as well as the home of my Alma Matter University of Wisconsin. I understand your college town feel in a way, but Madison is very diverse economy with lots of high tech jobs and growth, so it retains far more age variations. I'm 28 so I can relate to your point of view on aging though. I noticed I was changing right around 25, I just grew up more mentally. I'm looking forward now to my future and care less about all those little needs I had in my younger days. I have other interests and now am cash positive to afford them on my own.(Vacations, saving for a house, etc etc)

I'm finding that I've starting to figure out things a bit more than when I first graduated from High school and moved to college, then graduated from college bright eyed and ignorant at 22. I'm looking forward to life and not fear getting older. It has its benefits that you don't see or care about as much when you're younger. However I'm still young enough that I've still got more of a eyes wide open look and I do enjoy being in my 20's yet for about 2 more years.

I just turned 20 and have grown up alot since 14-18 lol.
I got in so much trouble its not even funny.At 14 I got hit with a Armed robbery And got sent to the county jail and thought that was sweet so I didn't even give a fuck about getting into more trouble.That case got dismissed in court for lack of evidence because the cops are dumb as shit around here and I had a great lawyer my cousin got for me.Got out a week before turning 15 and thought I was tough as shit because I was the only 14 yr old on my block who actually been to jail lol I was so stupid back then.
.Like 3 weeks later I got locked back up again and sent back to the county for Possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver,seen all my old friends in there who were still awaiting trial.Won the case again for illegal search and seizure after sitting for 6 months.
Came out even more fucked up in the head then when I went in.Everything was calm and I was staying out of trouble until I started hanging with my cousin again and started working for him,I really didn't want to do it but the pay was to good and I got to sit on my ass and smoke all day and me and my mom were eating good.
I was 16 now and some dickhead tried to rob me and I was charged with attempted homicide,agg assault and a bunch of other shit.My bail was 10% of 500 so there was no way in hell I was getting out on bail with the money I saved up.So I just thought fuck it I'll sit in the county again but it was overcrowded so I got sent up state and thats where I changed because it fucking sucks up there I didn't know anybody,I fought atleast 3 days out of every week because I was the only white boy on my block until the seargents got tired of it and moved me to another block,I wasn't going in no pc with them punk ass rapists.I sat for a year in a half awaiting trial then got acquitted again.Theres alot more but I dont feel like typing it all.
I am never going back to jail again I grew up alot since back then,I just gotta win this case first though so I can get on with my life and get in college and get a normal career.I also got court for a settlement with the Pennsylvania DOC for getting sent upstate when I shouldn't of been there so im hoping I can get some money for that but my lawyers not very optimistic about getting anything.

i'am still the same person i was when i was 18, the only difference is now i'am too old and knackered to do what i used to do 25yrs ago lol

I went over from the good side to bad dude. I'm a little shit, I used to be a lot different but the only thing I think is the real difference is I like who i am now and I'm figuring out who I am. thats fucking life. But I'm reckless as fuck now then before when I was younger i was shy and more reserved.

it's ok being reckless as long as you don't fuck any one else's life up in the process

No I don't pull shit like that. I'm doing things for myself.

Idk I just basically smoke a lot of weed. I'm not even that bad.

I did a lot of really shitty things as a young man that I'd love to be able to take back. The fact that I even lived through those years never ceases to amaze me.
