When you were a little kid...like in Elementary school, did you ever think about how you'll be when you're a teenager / grown up?
When you think about it now...are you the person you thought you'd be? Or are you different? And if so, for better or for worse?
This is just something I've been thinking about lately.
For me, I'm the same person I was when I was a kid. Still watching the same Disney movies I watched as a kid, laughing at the same things, going on Homestarrunner.com to check for updates, haha. I haven't changed, and I'm happy with who I am now.
as a kid i just wanted to be one of those mature high schoolers i'd see biking by me as i walked home from elementary school with that silly rolling backpack...i always just wanted to be successful
now i guess i am...i mountain bike, honed my violin skills, do track and cross country.... but on the inside, im still the same! just taller with a deeper voice. i love video games, legos, pokemon, disney, cartoons, but hey im still a teen, let me be!
Well, when I was younger, I was pretty arrogant - I was usually one of the smartest kids in my class, and most of the kids in my class annoyed me - I couldn't laugh at myself - I took some things too seriously. Didn't really have too many friends.
Seventh grade, I had the best teacher ever. He taught history, was hilarious, and taught us the importance of laughing at ourselves. I made many friends in that class, and got a new group of friends. We were connected by the fact that we loved video games and anime, but my friends are kind, caring people. I'm friends with all of them today. A kid who annoyed me in my math class ended up being my best guy friend.
I'm a bit more humble now, I'm a bit less of a perfectionist (but I still can't stand inadequacy of failure from myself) but yeah, I'm still the same person inside.
Well in first grade, I predicted myself as a great drawer and that I would draw comics all the time.
Now, it's close to that. I draw pretty good and I draw manga all the time. X3 I act younger than my age though. But I type more maturely than my age. XD
When I was a kid I was extremely outgoing and loud. I spoke my mind and wasn't afraid of what people thought of me.
Now, I'm more self conscious and extremely quiet. When I look back at old videos of me when I was a kid i barely recognize myself. I'm still just as intelligent as ever, but personality wise I'm opposite my younger self.
I still like the same things I did when I was a kid.
I was expecting to be i the brass band with my flute or be in the chicago symphony orchestra,
plus I thought I would always draw crappy
but that has changed, instead I'm going to be a art/music teacher for college or children
Hmm in a way yes and in another way no.
When I was little I didn't have friends and I was a little outcast-ish and my grades were horrible. I had always promised myself when I was a little kid that when I was older I'd never drink alcohol, do drugs, get a tattoo, you know, the usual. I would get good grades, and I would have friends. And I wanted to be the person that would do good in the world and help people. Oh yeah and I was a homophone. Lulz, I'm bi now :B
Okay so, now it's a lot easier for me to get friends. When most people get to know me, they actually like me. I have a cool personality. I'm a freak :B But of course there are always the people that judge me and give me the weird looks, but whatever. My grades are tons better now. And I had promised when I was younger I wouldn't drink or whatever, lulz I got drunk yesterday. I wouldn't mind getting a small tattoo when I'm older. And I still feel the same way about drugs - no. I still want to help people, which I try to do everyday because I like to help people. /ironic
Not really... When I was younger, I never really put a lot of thought into what I would be like as a high school student, but it wasn't anything like this. :\
When I was little I always thought that i'd fit in and have a small group of friends, but nowadays I'm the type of person that gets along with everybody and I'm very outgoing.So no.
Not true, most of the time our hearts get put together.
Children are cruel, you know all those people that make fun of other kids? What about all those kids that abuse animals?
When they get older, they usually mature and don't do these things anymore
