Turning 18 is so weird

I'm turning 18 tommorow and I'm thinking about this a bit. Like it's just another year but also it's a special year. I'm just a teenager and do teenager stuff. When I wake up tommorow, everything will be exactly the same. I will be the same person. At the same time being legally an adult gives me a lot of rights and it feels very freeing. So many opportunities. That's quite exciting. Many things will be easier such as volunteering and looking for a j*b. Fortunately I'll be still living with my parents for some time and I'm still at highschool (for context I'm not American so school system is different) so it's not like I have to jump into all the adult resposibilities right now.  

Growing into an adult seeing all this evil in today's world is a crazy experience. Tho I don't think world had been a better place in the past. I mean all this issues we face today started long time ago. Another crazy experience is seeing climate change with my own eyes. What do you mean at some point at the end of February in Poland there is 16°C (60.8 F)??? When I was a child there would be a thick layer of snow. And we are lowkey just accepting it as normal. And like when I was younger there was still time to stop it but we reached the turning points and now it's too late just because some politicans and rich guys from fussil fuels companies and other businesses only care about money. (Tho I want to stress that even if we can't stop it, WE CAN AND SHOULD DO EVERYTHING TO SLOW IT DOWN).

Also there's so many things happening in the world right now that it's hard to focus on day to day life. Like you wake up and hear that US bombed another country and you're supposed to just go about your day as nothing happened. It's horrifying. But being 18 also gives me more ways to protest.
