Being completely legal is something that usually doesn’t happen for us in the states until were 21. However, if you decide to travel outside of America you can be legal for the time you’re away. Here are some thoughts I had while experiencing many firsts being legal for a weekend when I went to Windsor, Ontario in Canada where the legal age is 19.
- Gambling in a casino
I’ve never gambled so trying to learn how was difficult
2. Going to the liquor store
When they looked at my ID I still got nervous even though I knew I was overage.
3. Getting into bars
Bouncers scanned my ID I had complete peace of mind knowing it was completely real.
4. Casually ordering drinks at dinner
Wow, look at how mature and sophisticated I am.
