new words i know (but don't always embody)
grown-up (noun) 1. a person who recognizes responsibilities and places personal happiness/ impulses at bay to meet them. 2. one who acts responsibly even when one does not want to.
responsiblity (adverb? i've always been confused about parts of speech) grown-ups have them. usually they involve things that are less fun than the opposite-- non-responsibility.
non-responsibility (something) self-indulgent fun without consequences (well, if there are consequences, somehow they don't matter). should be balanced with responsibility to discover happiness.
happiness (i embody, i imbibe) balance of responsibility and non-responsibility to discover ideal mix of weight and light, usefulness and immediate gratification.

it's a noun, because it's a "thing." i think. responsibLY is an adverb, though! i hope i'm not wrong, because otherwise, i'll look like the most uneducated english major on the web. love you.
