Age, a Crisis Yet Again

Day 165, 27th Vocational Trade Day-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*I didn't get Gold Card because my reviews were not quite high enough - only four points away.*


So I had all these plans set up this weekend and I have a lot of money saved. I was going  to go to verizon to change phones because mine isn't doing it's job anymore. Mom just sent me this REALLY nice one too. I owe her big time.
I was also going to do some shopping for Alexis' bridal shower (my cousin), and I'm NOT going to get her a cheap ass gift from Walmart.
I was going to download some books onto my Kindle, grab a nice lunch, do some shopping for new headphones, a rug for my room, and art supplies.

Well, they just recently changed the hours on Day Pass. Now it's from 8:00 to 20:00. And because it's a 12 hr day pass, I am not allowed to go because I am not 18 years old.

What the hell is this crap?? I didn't change the time schedule, and now, because I'm 16, I'm not responsible enough to go out on the town for 12 hours alone! If they're going to pull that, then why isn't it like, "Well you're 21, so you can't be trusted to be off center unsupervised because it is very possible that you will consume alcoholic beverages and come back intoxicated".
Just because I am not considered an 'adult' doesn't mean I'm irresponsible, and just because other students are above the age of 18, doesn't make them any more responsible than I am! How many times do I have to prove myself to these guys?
