to be 7 years old

i wish i'm a kid again. i wanna be 7 years old again. i had nothing to worry about back then but school and house chores. i just have to make sure i wake up on time, brush my teeth, eat breakfast, ride the service to school, be polite to my teachers, stay awake and absorb as much in class, play til the service picks me up to bring me back home, do my homework, watch a little tv, do my chores. that's it. no other worries. oh yeah, i worry bout the show on tv if i'll be able to catch it after i play outside. that was about it.

back then, i was so eager to grow up and be able to graduate college and be able to do my own thing, have my own money, go out ... see the world.

now that i've grown up ... i wish i hadn't. now at 22, i worry about finding a job, getting along with strangers, finding my own place, getting my own car, paying taxes, making my parents satisfied with what's goin on in my life, relationships (the cycle of it ... starting one, keeping one, trying to save one, getting over one, moving on to another one)

i wish i was a 7 year old again. worried with simpler things. happy with simpler things.
