Today is my 18th birthday! I am no longer a minor, and in the whole second between when I was 17 and now 18, I matured enough to suddenly be able to do everything that minor's can't do. What a second huh? This also means that suddenly I have to be a lot more responsible too. I think I miss being a kid already.
Here's something I found, that could be a hoax, but was in several magazines (including Readers Digest) and on CBS. Anyways, this kid supposedly built a nuclear reactor in the toolshed behind his house; at the age of 15 for an Eagle Scout project. It sorta reminds me of the movie The Manhatten Project. A shorter version of that story can be read here. I have to admire the kid though for knowing so much about chemistry and science at such a young age, but then of course he wastes it by not going on to college.
Ok, this has got to be one of the scariest things ever. A 12 year old girl named Britney Cleary is being courted by major record labels based off a single she released about chatting and flirting via AOL Instant Messanger. It might just be the first song ever about IMing, and it isn't even that good, not to mention is just a little weird since it's by a 12 year old girl. You can download the mp3 of it (Don't blame me if you become nauseous after hearing it) and also view the disgustingly cute lyrics. What is it with child pop stars? Before you know it we'll be getting auditions from babies still in the womb.
