The fun part about growing up is probably making memories to reminisce about when you get older. Memories with friends and remembering all the laughs with them in class. The extra curricular activities too like I was a drama student so we did drama festivals and things like that. Also when people play sports, you remember all of those extra things I think more than what you would learn in a subject like Social Studies or in French class. Some things will stick to you, so yeah I think it's just the experience of socializing, having fun with your friends, getting to know people, learning about yourself through sports and drama and like taking English and reading a short story that will stick with you for the rest of your life that you don't even realize until you're older. When I became an adult which was when I was 18 years old I was still relying on my parents. I would live with them, they handle all the payments in the house and they prepared my food. It was like that for about a year or two until I decided to be more independent, like making my own choices and choosing my own path. I stopped relying on my parents when I stopped University. I felt that stopping and taking a break from University would make me into a better person. So when I decided to continue University again after some time off, I graduated at the age of 30 whereas the other students I graduated with were only 25. The best life advice I could give to the younger generation is to do what you want at your own pace and not letting the achievements of others determine what yours will be like.
