Sure, you can get drafted, but you won't. I suppose buying lottery tickets could change your life if you win, but you likely won't. If you don't smoke or chew, buying tobacco isn't so exciting. Being tried as an adult? I hope you won't be. you become a legal adult in the United States when you turn 18. Along with it comes the responsibilities of adulthood, especially legal issues that you might not have to answer to when younger. You are no longer bound to parental rules (unless you choose to still live under their roof). You can make the decision whether to continue your education or get a job, and you can be tried for crimes as an adult and be sent to an adult prison.
What's the hurry?
