Growing Up and Looking Back

There are some serious transitions going on for me, and one of the most crucial ones is becoming a young adult and a teenager. I am now realizing that I need to start learning life skills, such as cooking (which I'm not good at), cleaning (also not good at that), and how to stay organized (with my room I'm definitely the worst at that). But I am also realizing that I am maturing into a new person, an older person. Like now I have different taste in clothing, like when I was 8 I loved "Justice" (what 8 year old girl doesn't?) and now I love "American Eagle"  (they have such cute clothes, *squeal!*). But as I go through this time, I know one thing, and that is to remain true to myself as a person. And I think that is the most important thing to know about growing up, after all Y.O. A. T.O. (Your only a teen once!)
