Tonight, seeing as it's a Saturday and there's nothing to do, the mother and I thought we'd go out to the movies to see Ex Machina, which is a great film by the way but also rated a 15.
For any who don't know, I'm 15, so old enough to enter.
We got to the desk after a 20 min drive into town, went to buy tickets when the cashier said,
"Can I see his ID?" ~ YAY, I PASSED! ( and my mum didn't even correct him :D ) ~
but ... no ID.
In girl mode, I would pass for 18 easy but not as male, now I'm passing as male but not even as 15! AAAGGGHHHH D:
Wrapping the story up, we went home to get my passport (female, eugh) and got to see the film. But for the first time passing is a pain in the ass! :P

Yeah you look like you're just entering puberty. 13-14 maybe.

Here's an image for reference ~grumbles and whines~

Except for a very brief window in life which is where you are now, it is a blessing to look younger than you are. Trust me on this one! Very dapper in the bowtie, by the way!
