I never wanted to be a grown-up, either. I won't even admit how long it took me to feel I was -almost- grown-up enough to have a child.
But oddly, I think the turning point of adulthood is realizing that there's really no 'form' to it. It's more about being responsible than about doing things others might perceive as childish. Also, about learning to be at home in your own skin.
And that's not a bad thing. Adolescence sucked ever so much more than adulthood.
