- Plus you have to pay taxes. And pretend as if you know why you pay it!
- You have to say hasta la vista to siesta
- There is no playtime. Only time for physical activities to make sure your waist doesn’t show how much you waste on junk food
- Your innocent eyes don’t save you from your boss’ wrath
- Summer vacations turn into just summers
- Being friends with someone just because you both like the same candy flavour doesn’t happen anymore
- A cold “wassup” replaces a warm hug
- Crying has to be done very discreetly
- Worse. You have to laugh cautiously
- “Because I don’t want to” is not an acceptable answer
- There are bigger problems in your life than homework. Like working from home
- You have to stop asking stupid questions. And when you try to find their answers yourself the world calls you stupid
- People laugh with you less, behind you, more
- Nobody tells you “It’s Ok” anymore
- Not many people think you are cute when you make crazy faces
- Not many girls come towards you just to pinch your chubby cheeks
- “What do you plan to do?” becomes more important than “What you are actually doing?”
- You know a lot more now. You understand too many things. You feel several emotions. Enough to make you forget how you can stay happy for no reason
- Smirks replace giggles
- Cigarettes replace Lolly Pops
- You grow big in size but your heart shrinks
- Intelligence becomes more important than good intent
- The only thing you share now are links on Facebook
- The colours in your life are restricted to your wardrobe
- Savings become more important than savouring every moment
- And again you have to pay taxes and pretend as if you know why you pay it!
Do we all miss childhood or what?
