Grateful to still be young

My sisters baby shower was today. I have never been at a more boring place than baby and bridal showers. Ever. This is including college lectures. Any of them. All they are is a bunch of ladies who are remotely connected sitting around talking only to the people they know. It's like a high school lunch room full of clicks. Except ten times less fun. At least my sis now has some needed things for her baby. And I got cookies out of it. Not free ones, because I made them, but still. 

I talked to my mother and sister about it after. They asked if I had fun. I said heck no. Then they gave the answer that always annoys when given. You'll understand when you're older. I mean seriously. If I have to enjoy baby showers, literally sitting there in a crowded room full of awkward silences, I would rather stay a teenager. Thank you. 

People keep telling me adulthood has its parts that are better than adolescence. The only thing I have found so far is getting to hang out with your friends whenever you want and independence. But even then, that sucks. It better get better. If I start to like "parties" that are just eating, talking, lame games, and awkward silence, someone slap me. Some music was much needed. I just want the good parts of adulthood to catch up to the responsibility and anxiety that I already experience daily. 

To sum up, I want to go to Neverland and never grow up. I think adulthood should be experienced with as much child like behavior as possible. It's so much more fun that way. I don't understand why people think that growing up means you can never act silly and hyper again. They don't know how to have fun. Like going in a star tunnel and spinning so it looks like Star Wars. It's okay to act weird people, it's more fun than this normal that people tell me I should have. Why? There's no point. I'm happy being weird.
