    First thing you did when you turned 18.
    This is kind of a dumb question but some friends and I got to talking and it got kind of interesting so I thought I'd post the main cause of the conversation here... I was wondering what the first thing you did when you turned 18?
    If you're not 18 what's the first thing you plan to do?

    I voted. It was about six months after my 18th. I was super excited about it.

    My friends planned a party for me at a bar on a Sat. night for my 18th b'day. The problem was, I didn't turn 18 until after midnight. I had one drink, and a person in the bar who thought it would be funny... busted me! I got kicked out, while the rest of my so-called friends stayed in the bar and partied.

    The first thing I did when I turned 18 was plot my revenge, lol!

    Happy belated birthday bud. Yeah, it's better if you get your friends to just buy you 18 tickets.

    18, wow, that was almost 20 years ago. Sigh.

    My friends took me to Chucky Cheese and we ordered Chucky Beer (it leaves allot to be desired and is appropriately named). Then we all went to a bar, got a bit tipsy and danced the night away. It was a night to remember, and a hangover that lasted 3 days.

    They didn't call the cops. Probably because they would've been in trouble for not checking ID. Thing is, I had gone in that same bar several times from the time I was 16. We always tried to see if we could get away with it, and we did! So it really sucked when I was carded just a few hrs before I turned 18, and then they didn't allow me back in even after midnite. It sucked! LOL

    Yes, legal drinking age in Canada is 18. I think Ontario might be 19 now.

    3 minutes before I was 18, I walked into 711. I wondered around the store for three minutes, and when the big clock on the wall struck midnight, I legally bought my first pack of Cigarettes. Sad but true. I'm really glad I quit.

    I live in Michigan. I also Live about 45 min. away from the border into Canada. On my 19th birthday I participated in the right of passage of crossing the border and getting trashed. As far as I know, you have to be 19 to drink in Canada.

    I got engaged on my 18th birthday. It was puppy love and we didn't get married but I still have fond memories of those times. Gah almost 9 years ago now.
