Eighteenth .VS. Seventeenth - Differences

Probably everyone knows that the difference between 17 and 18 is equal to 1. Kids know that too!
But I'm going to write how's my life change from 17 year old to 18. It's totally different!

In my Seventeenth
  1. Bus is the main vehicle for my transportation in school days. 
  2. I took money from my mum every week before school on Mondays and I never gave my mum money.
  3. My schedule is the same everyday. Sleep--school---eat---bath---homework---TV---revision---sleep. 
  4. I enjoyed and relaxed on Saturdays and Sundays. Shopping always the best activities. 
  5. I had never worried about how my life would go on. And just stay stupid and wait SPM to end.
  6. My social network only consist of my families and my friends in school. That's all.  
In my Eighteenth
  1. I have learn an "All-Malaysians-Must-Have-Living-Skill" called driving. In advantage, I have a car borrowed from my aunt for about RM2000. Yes, I used my savings to buy it. My heart was sliced into a ton pieces when take my 5-year-savings out just for a tiny little Perodua Kancil which had been celebrates it's 12 birthday. 
  2. My mum stopped giving me pocket money since my SPM ended.(Well, this is the only bad thing that I finished my SPM). In another words, I have to give mum some of my money and do some contribution to our family expenses, which comprise of electric and water bills. So, I have to start earning money by teaching piano. Besides that, I have to cover my own expenses too! I just want to scream out loudly that I hate paying for PETROL! How can it being so fast finished? Or can I say that it just so effectively and wonderfully disappear in a few miles driving.
  3. Basically, my life changes everyday. Today I would be in Kuala Lumpur buying goods, and tomorrow I would be teaching piano all day long and the other days just doing the house routines. It just not that kind of "school-homework-and revision" in my 17th. I enjoy my life now : )
  4. Saturday is a miracle for me. I love how busy I am driving here and there teaching piano all day long. Sunday would be a more relaxing than Saturday and I always go swimming and do some exercise instead of going shopping mall. : ) 
  5. Most of the nights in my eighteen have been bad. I can't even fall asleep with all thinking and worrying about how to teach my students tomorrow, how to talk to their parents about the fees, how to arrange my time to suit my students, how much money I left or that I will be dead from hunger... etc. It's a hundred time more difficult to deal with these compared with my life in seventeenth which just needed only to concern about how much homework I haven't done yet. 
  6. I meet new students, new parents, new friends, and even business man. I learn how to communicate with them and to face some awkward moments or to deal with some unsatisfied parents.
  7. Everything is new for me. I have to know how insurance protects me, how's taxes going on in our country, how much % is the bank deposit interest and how expensive the properties are. I have to plan my future as this is no longer my mum job. I have to responsible for my life and my family too. It's all burdens since 18th start. : ( 
And last but not least, I'm reminded by my friends that I'm already 18 and can start watching Adult Video =.= 
But that's not my cup of tea. Thank you ~ hahaha...

Wish me a great 18th. Cheers.
