I’m currently 18 and in 12th grade, preparing for the Baccalaureate exam (the one held in Romania when you graduate high school) and my university admission exam for law, both taking place next summer. I’m really into health, wellness, beauty, skincare, and fashion: things like working out, sports, nutrition, meditation, makeup, and shopping. I read a lot, watch movies and TV shows almost every night, and listen to music constantly. I love going out, clubbing and partying, traveling, driving around (I got my license recently), and playing games like The Sims, Stardew Valley, Animal Crossing, Crusader Kings III, Stellaris, Cities: Skylines, Baldur’s Gate 3, Minecraft, and Roblox. I’m also into casual dating and sex. That’s basically my life at the moment. What were you doing when you were my age?
Any other year that long ago would probably be full of difficult to remember details, but I spent most of that year in military training. Left on the evening on my 18th birthday. Guess you could say I was involuntarily into health and physical fitness. Fashion, not so much.
Then I came back home and started a 2 year degree in electronics. I’d say that was a poor choice, vocationally, but I don’t really have any regrets about the path my life has taken. I never really have known who I wanted to be when I grew up. As I approach retirement, I hope to get it figured out by then.
