That you would one day "feel" like an adult. By that I mean your brain would click into place (maybe on your 21st birthday) and you suddenly know how to navigate the world.

But, the truth is you don't, you just live and you learn.

Probably this tbh.

I bet that there are 18 year olds that probably behave more like a mature adult than I do.

That it'd be as easy as childhood - **** ain't easy

You can honestly get away with slacking a lot & being totally carefree as a child/teenager and still do well for yourself with classes, whatever little you have to do for responsibilities etc. at home, and friendships/relationships etc. etc. but as an adult if you don't push yourself in any areas you're kinda screwed.
