I just discovered my age group! I am a Seenager. (Senior teenager)  

I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 50-60 years later. 

I don't have to go to school or work

I get an allowance every month.

I have my own pad. 

I don't have a curfew. 

I have a driver's license and my own car.

 I have ID that gets me into bars and the wine store. I like the wine store best.

The people I hang around with are not scared of getting pregnant, they aren't scared of anything, they have been blessed to live this long, why be scared?

And I don't have acne.     Life is Good!
