... I won't be voting in the next general election.Why ... if you're old enough to earn a wage and pay taxes, you should be allowed to have a say on how the government spends them! I've also been taking driving lessons, and in fact I will be taking my driving test on the very day I turn 18... But I think I'm already mature enough(to understand that driving a car also means taking responsibility for my life and the lives of other people.

... and that we should become more independent. I used to believe this,... I assumed I'd already have a well-paid job and that I'd be moving into a rented apartment as soon as I turned 18, but how wrong I was! ... Because I contribute to the household bills and my commute to work is quite expensive, I find it hard to save any money. I'll be starting a new job next month, ... I know I could get a bank loan to pay the deposit on my very own apartment, ... I guess some responsibilities are more about attitude than age.
