I chose this carnation flower as an object that represents how old I feel mostly because these are the most beautiful times in a girl/woman’s life, especially as women, we age much faster than men. So simply put, this is the prime time in my life physically. But I also thought about the flower (which I wish wasn’t completely bloomed) to symbolize that I may be 21, based on age an adult, however, I am no where near ready for the world outside of college, high school, parents, being taken care of; it is a scary thing to think about. I have bloomed past being a little girl or an adolescent girl, I am finally a woman, however I am not yet at the point in my life where I am a true adult, a confusing time if I could explain it in one word.
