16 going on 17

This week I will be turning seventeen. Some years your birthday comes and goes without much fuss, but this year I feel as if I am leaving the world of adolescence behind, though I will only be seventeen. Sixteen seems so young, but seventeen is almost grown up. How can such a big transition happen in just one year? It is probably similar to the transition that happens between your 12th and 13th year of life-child, to teenager.
Life changes so quickly, no matter what stage you're in. While each phase of life lasts, let's enjoy it, appreciating each moment before it vanishes.
