Today is my birthday

I'm 16 and I have to spend my day inside doing English coursework

Also I don't think I'm getting any presents from my parent unless I keep pestering them which is what I'm trying to do since I want a white boxed Saturn

HAPPY McBIRTHDAY!

EDIT: On the subject of driving:

Driving in MA:

Permit - 16
license (driver's ed) - 16 1/2
License (no driver's ed) - 18 (and the insurance is higher)

Restrictions:
Permit - Have to have an adult with 5+ years of driving experience riding shotgun at all times
License - No passengers under 18 for first 6 months (unless they're siblings or there's a qualified adult riding shotgun.), also no driving between midnight and 5 AM for the first 6 months.

Insurance rates: Set by the state. (No GEICO, Allstate, Progressive, eSurance...) Also, high. Very high. (I've been driving for 4 years and it's only down to about 1700.

)

Great thing about being one year older - one year closer to sweet death.
(just kidding!).

Nope you have to be 18 in Spain if you want a permit, I am however allowed to drive a moped, smoke cigarettes, and grow up to 4 cannabis plats for personal use though this is all just by spanish constitution, I'm allowed none of those by my parents

Thanks everyone for wishing me a happy birthday!

I don't know why they allow you to smoke cigarettes at 16, but you can legally grow cannabis for personal use in Spain?

If you do drivers ed first it only takes 8 months to get your G2, not a year, so you can get it at 16. It also makes your insurance a bit cheaper.

Spains age for sex is actually 13 I think which is pretty crazy as well.
