All a very normal part of growing up. :specool:

Good for you !!!!! I guess you got a lot of growing too do-do Boo Boo. Dont worry, they say change is good for you. Think about all that social development you'll go through ....... you can test and master your girl magnet techniques down to a perfect science. Protest for causes you deem worthy, volunteer in the community to build up your resume` , join a fraternity being made to do things that look silly to outsiders, deal and maybe fall prey to peer pressure or just simply go to school. Good luck on your quest for higher learning.
