Your best friends become strangers, lollipops turn into cigarettes, the innocent ones turn into sluts, homework goes in the trash, soda becomes vodka, and kisses turn into sex. Remember when getting high meant swinging on the playground? When protection meant wearing a helmet? When the worst thing you could get from boys were cooties? Dad's shoulders were the highest place on the Earth and mom was your hero? Your worst enemies were your siblings, race issues were about who ran the fastest, the only drug you knew was panadol, wearing a skirt didn't make you a slut, the only thing that hurt you was your grazed knees and goodbyes only meant until tomorrow? We all said we couldn't wait to grow up, what were we thinking?
