Peter Pan was just as correct as Socrates. Or, at least, as far as a personal philosophy goes. Him and I both never wanted to grow up.
I think males, especially those in college, get looked down upon too much for being boys. This is technically our last chance to be immature before we go into the "real world." I see kids at UK acting like men, or at least trying to, around the girls they talk to in school. They talk about their jobs, class, and things like that. Live a little, enjoy your youth and quit growing up so quickly.
I still play video games, I still get excited when I get new "toys," such as electronics or accessories for my vehicle. I still have a short attention span and lots of pride; there is something so hard to let go about the fun of boyhood.
As Peter Pan said, "I want always to be a boy, and have fun." I agree with him, why rush to adulthood and let boredom take control this early? I'm only 18, and I plan to stay 18 for a few more years.
