Turning 21...
21 years of age - now that is a huge milestone in Singapore. At least that is when the state legally proclaims you an adult.
An adult affords you many things, for one, you can enter into a contract, without having to get your parent/guardian/custodian's permission and signature. While this means greater freedom, this freedom also comes with a caveat.
Being an adult means you need to take responsibility of your actions, you cannot hide behind your parents when you get into trouble with the law. You are your own man, or woman in either instance. For one, boys' home or girls' home is no longer an option - you go directly to jail, if your crime warrants jail time, that it.
You can even watch R(21) restricted 21 years old banding category movies!
Many young adults host a big celebration when they turn 21 years of age.
To celebrate this momentous milestone - they spend lavishly to host parties. Parents usually gift the recipient a necklace with a key pendant, or a lock, or some symbolic item of a key etc. To signify the turning into a full adult, and holding a key to his or her own pathway in life. A key to his or her own success, whatever it may be, for he or she is now fully in charge of his or her own life and decisions.
For your peers, who are most probably born in the same year, many if not all will be turning 21 years old on the same year. Meaning, you have to host 1 big party yourself, and will have to attend all your other friends' 21 years old birthday parties.
One immediate thing came to mind - what do you gift them???
Well, you enjoy it once. At your own party! For one time in the year, and possibly your lifetime, you get to host one of the biggest birthday bashes ever, 21 years old birthday party, and get to be the main character for 1 full day, and collect all the wishes and gifts from others. The day then passed, and you're back to your old self. 21 years and 1 day old.
You get to then worry and fret over what unique gifts to get for your peers, your friends, your bros, your crushes etc, for the rest of the freaking long year!
