I, on the other hand, still might not be considered a proper adult. I had been very grown-up in primary school. But as I continued through secondary school, I in fact became less grown-up.

Justin Timberlake

I just feel like I haven't grown up yet. I live on my own and I do grown-up things, but there is something about me that is very youthful.
