Getting older scares me for a few reason. When I was young, I always had hope that I would change or have more confidence or be more fun or enjoy life some day. But the older I get, the more I realize that miraculous change won't occur.
It also stinks because when you are shy and younger it's kind of cute. But, I think when you are eerily shy and older, people just think you weird or snobby or slow.
I also don't want to lose my looks - as shallow as that sounds. I am not the best looking person. But, between my looks and personality, my looks get more attention. When they go, what's left?
There is a little bit of comfort with getting older, though. Even though I looked good at 21-23, I was immature and drank alot and was a bit neurotic. I think that I have grown up a bit. There are fewer drunken episodes, and few opportunities to put me in bad and/or embarrassing situation.
