There are often times I sit around and find myself lost in a world of adult responsibilities and constant reminders of all the stuff I inherently forget to do - being as irresponsible as I am. Then, I think again and find myself wondering why I feel like a twelve-year-old surrounded by a bunch of responsible adults who have their life figured out...and then I remember...I am the youngest person in my friend group. I am satisfied with my immaturity, and content with being chaperoned throughout town - here are some signs that you too, might be the youngest person in your friend group.
