Growing up

I'm grown up because:

1. I wash my own linen and no one is there telling me to do it. I also buy my own linen. The first time I purchased towels I felt extraordinarily like an adult. It was intense.
2. I buy take away coffee. Walking out of the shop with a cup of coffee always makes me feel grown up since little kids don't (or at least shouldn't) drink coffee and secondly getting it to take away makes the statement that you've got more important or interesting places to be.
3. I have no idea about what music is making to top 40 count down. Often I'll hear of a song a long time after everyone else has heard and loved it. In my teenage years I thought knowing the top 40 made me cool. These days I don't run after fads, instead I look for what I like 
4. I throw dinner parties. 
5. I clean out the fridge.
6. And lastly...I've applied to go to uni. Not because it's expected but because I want to. I've found an area that I want to excel in and I'm going to. And now I get to wait while someone else decides which uni I get into. I may be grown up but this feels a lot like high school again. EEEP.
