Best Sweet Sixteen Ever!

I'm finally sixteen!!!!!!!!!!! This day was amazing! It was the best party ever!!!!! I don't think I've ever had more fun at a party! I cannot believe I wasn't looking forward to it!! I can't remember laughing as much as I did today! I take back my previous opinion! Sweet sixteens rock! I got the most amazing presents from my friends as well as my parents. This was possibly the best birthday of my life! Well, now I have to think of return presents to give to my mom and sister. I hope they tell me what they want. Knowing them, I have a pretty good idea of what they are going to ask me. My sister will ask for eternal slavery and my mom will ask for a foot massage everyday and a zillion hugs and kisses. The day just flew by and I didn't even realize it. I've been in a fantastic mood all day. Not a single tantrum from my side, although I did get angry when my mom told me I looked fat in the dress I was wearing. But then, who doesn't, right? Mamma says that it's my only vanity. Maybe becoming sixteen has changed me. Stranger things have happened! Who knows, maybe that can be one of my return presents, not making them deaf, I mean! I hope I'm still like this tomorrow! Even I don't enjoy the screaming much! It doesn't get me anything anyway! Anyway, I'll try to write tomorrow too!

I'm bored...

Sooo... I turn sixteen tomorrow. Old news, I know! But that's the only thing on my mind at the moment. God, I'm writing this while my sister is whining to my mom about something. They are telling me that as soon as I turn sixteen I should stop throwing tantrums and screaming at the top of my voice. Like it's that easy! Didn't I say in my last post that we don't undergo a rapid personality change as soon as we turn sixteen! Unless, of course, tragedy strikes or something like that! And anyway,I don't throw that many tantrums anymore. They just know which buttons to press to get my blood boiling. I know when my mom reads this she's gonna say there's very little that doesn't get my blood boiling and then follows the'no one can make you lose your temper, only you can'! It's not that easy! I admit I'm hot headed and lose my temper a lot but they can't keep egging me on like that. They totally drive me crazy. I mean, they tell me something that's meant to make me start yelling and I know they're trying to test me and I want to prove them wrong so badly, just for once in my life! It's almost eerie(and a little exagerrated)when my sister imitates me and it's creepy when they tell me what's going on in my head. Am I really that easy to read? I wish I wasn't. Oh! According to them I'm a very intrusive person. My sister calls me nosy Parker for God's sake! That's the limit! If anything they are hosier than I am. Anyway I'm signing off for now! See you later!

Why Sweet Sixteen?

Sorry I haven't posted anything in the longest time! I've had my pre-boards going on so I went on stand by. Wow! It's been a month since I've written anything. I've missed writing so much. Sooo..... I turn 16 this Saturday! I wonder why becoming 16 is so important for a girl. It's not like we can vote or get married or drink alcohol. So what's so special about being 16? And it's only special for a girl! Why aren't the other birthdays special??? and why does only 16 get an adjective! You know, sweet sixteen!! Why can't it be Outstanding One, Toothless Two, Talkative Three, Friendly Four, Fearsome Five, Sassy Six, Sunny Seven, Enthusiastic Eight, Troublesome Ten, Easy-Going Eleven, Tender Twelve, Trendy Thirteen, and so on and so forth? Why only Sweet Sixteen? It's not like the day a girl turns 16, her nature changes! It's not like her personality gets a makeover or something, right? According to Wikipedia sweet sixteens are a coming of age. Maybe abroad, yes. I mean, You can drive at 16 but in India? You can't drive until 18! And abroad you have ceremonies on sweet sixteen like the candle ceremony, the shoe ceremony, the tiara ceremony and the father-daughter dance. That's not something we do here. I mean, I know we could but I for one think it's kind of silly. Sweet but silly! Hey , maybe that's why they call it sweet sixteen! What do you think?
