can’t wait to grow up when we’re young. The world is filled with all this possibility and wonder. I’ve been told ever since I was little that the world is my oyster; in other words‚ the world was completely opened to me and I could be anything I put my mind to. So I just couldn’t wait to grow up. Being an adult seemed awesome and I wanted to skip over the kid stage and get to my life‚ start living and taking care of myself. I thought I knew it all and I was ready to prove it. I had this idea‚ this

investigation will focus on the neighborhood of Corona/Elmhurst in Queens since I live on the border. I have noticed that the neighborhood is getting better in terms of housing and nice buildings.

I observe this every time I walk through my neighborhood. I see bags and food on top of the drain‚ and this scares me because I know that they could

When I Grow Up.. “Being ‘grown up’ isn’t as fun as the idea of growing up.” -AmberGrace Seguin Remember when we were young and all we could think of was growing up and getting to do ‘grownup’ things? We spent our whole childhood thinking of what we would do when we finally ‘grew up’‚ and here we are‚ almost completely grown up and we still haven’t made up our mind of what it is we will do when we grow up. We’ve painted this pretty little picture in our head of what it’ll be like when we eventually

Speech Essay Topic: Growing Up While our mums and dads are busy trying to look young again and regain that youthful glow‚ we teenagers are trying hard to do the exact opposite. What the adults are trying to get back‚ we are carelessly throwing away. We put on make-up‚ go to parties‚ smoke and drink; we do all this because it’s what grown-ups do and the way we see it‚ at 16‚ we already are. But we’re not. We’re almost adults‚ but not yet. We are stuck in the middle‚ and yet‚ we constantly try
