Under 25

[alejandra]

Hey I was just wondering how many people around my age are here.... so how about we meet each other....

[Logos]

Hello alejandra :) you can check out this forum Poll: How old will you be in 2006? (http://www.online-literature.com/forums/poll.php?do=showresults&pollid=245) to give you an idea of people's ages too.

[miss tenderness]

Hi Alej , I guess most of the members here are around your age:)
what's wrong with olds anyway:DI find it interesting to mingle with all ages , each can give different experience.

[Scheherazade]

I am couple of under 25s packed in one!

I totally agree... :) and please call me "Ale" ;) that's my short name

[Shannanigan]

hehe tenderness...nothing wrong with the olds...I think that's half the reason I'm here...to be exposed to those who know more than me! :)

[kathycf]

Age is a relative thing. For instance, I am going to be *gulp* 40 next month, which may seem very old to folks in their teens and twenties, but young to those who are in their 60's and 70's (and I believe there are a few members around of that age). I like mingling with different people regardless of age and other incidental things. :nod:

[crisaor]

I am, until next year at least.

Alejandra, where are you from?

[grace86]

Under 25!! I'm still a baby being only 20. But you do learn a lot from all the wonderful members here. Welcome Ale.

[ClaesGefvenberg]

Besides, why count your life merely in no. of birthdays? Some people still in their teens have experienced (or even achieved) more than most people do in their entire lives. Others on the other hand, can be considered "old" in their minds very early in life. What is the use of living to a ripe old age if you just use the time to sit on your backside, doing, experiencing, acieving nothing?

Carpe diem is a wonderful piece of advice, if you ask me :nod:

[amanda_isabel]

great thread..

anyway hey there ale.. i'm only 14. and i think there are a few other members around my age as well. :) but hey, age doesn't matter! literature, and art, is universal.

[miss tenderness]

sure Ale..nice name:)

[RJbibliophil]

I will say that I am almost 14. ;)

Kathy, you do not seem to be in your late 30's, although I know that you are.

And Grace, you are no baby. :lol: I'm not even in high school.

[blondeatheart]

i'm 14

welcome

Haha, if the forum ever met (as this idea was flirted with before but will likely never happen) we could never exclude the old folks that saunter about with their walking sticks to keep the young'uns together. Lets face the dead truth: the biggest reason anyone wanted to meet people from here is because they're single ... so when do we meet??? Hahahaha (j/k)

[RJbibliophil]

Are you really Blondy? You seemed older.

[Scheherazade]

we could never exclude the old folks that saunter about with their walking sticks to keep the young'uns together. You need to keep more up to date, young Irish! Walking sticks are so out. We prefer Zimmer Frames these days.

They are much more convenient... especially when one is doing the Hustle!

:D

[kathycf]

Oh my dear, a good cane will never go out of fashion. So much easier to whack young whippersnappers over the head with when they get too sassy...

Kathy, you do not seem to be in your late 30's, although I know that you are.


See, its funny because when I was a kid I thought "grownups" were very serious all the time and sophisticated. Like when I was an adult, I would sleep in a business suit or something. Essentially though, I feel pretty much the same on the inside as I did 20 years ago. Apparently I don't look all that different either. The drinking age in Massachusetts is 21 and I was buying a bottle of wine to bring to my Dad's for dinner one weekend. The cashier at the liquor store carded me! Ha ha, it made me feel good, although I don't think I look like I am 20 years old still. Maybe 29 or 30. Not too bad for a "crone" eh? :brow: ;)

[ClaesGefvenberg]

The cashier at the liquor store carded me! Ha ha, it made me feel good...Groan... You know something? That has never happened to me. Not ever. Not even when I was too young to buy the stuff... :rolleyes: Oh well...

/Claes

[kathycf]

Groan... You know something? That has never happened to me. Not ever. Not even when I was too young to buy the stuff... :rolleyes: Oh well...

/Claes

Funny, it happens to me now when I am much older than legal drinking age, but when I was younger no one ever questioned me about my age. Perhaps I am in a timewarp... ;)

I was actually the one my friends would cajole into buying beer when we were teenagers. (and yes, that is wrong and no, folks should not do it...)

[thevintagepiper]

I'm almost 15.

[alshadai]

I am under 25 but feel and live like I'm in my early 30s :(

I graduated college and grew up way too fast :( Stretch it out guys, stretch it out!

[miss tenderness]

lol u seem very depressed, alshadi! come on cheer up...alshadi means the good singer ,so why the depression??

[kathycf]

I wish the younger folks would not act like being in your 30's is so OLD. It really, really isn't. I live and act my age, whatever that means....always have. Which means, I try to enjoy life because it is somewhat fleeting.

[Birdy123]

i don't think that people dont want to talk to older ppl but sometimes it's easier as they can relate to them more as they might have the same interests.

[subterranean]

I was under 25 last year

[miss tenderness]

lol subterr

[alejandra]

Hey guys, It was just an innocent question..... just to clarify things I have nothing against older people and I don't believe 30 or 40 is old... and I appreciate to share points of view with people of all ages...

I don't remember who asked me where I am from... but the answer is that I am from Cochabamba-Bolivia... small country with many trouble ;) I speak spanish which would explain any grammar errors when writing in english so excuse me for that ...

Oh dear, I don't think anyone is angry with you, alejandra.
I hope I didn't give you that impression via my post earlier in this thread. I wasn't angry at anyone when I wrote that. Just in case that is what you are referring to....

[alejandra]

Oh, no, I didn't get that impression Kathy.... don't worry.... I meant that I didn't expect this thread to grow as much as it did.... I thought I would get only a couple of responses.... jeje....

[jose]

Hello Alejandra i have just recently registered and i saw this question you asked about people under 25. This is my first time using this website and I am 17 and I hope I can learn and discuss with you and others through this website.

[Annamariah]

I'm eighteen, though when I was buying tickets to a movie which was forbidden from children younger than 15 years, I was thought too young to see it... :D

[Alexei]

Sixteen years old, but still I don't think it really has some matter. Someone has already said that age is relative thing, and the experience with everyone is very different. I am sure there are some things I could be more experience than someone on fifty years. I don't say I am. Actually the best think is generations to learn from each other without neglecting older or younger people.

[mir]

I'm fifteen, but Ale, i agree with you that i don't think it matters. you're only as old as you feel. or act. or pretend. ;)

[EAP]

Eighteen, they didn't even bother looking at my (lack of) ID for R rated movies. :(

[Lioness_Heart]

Sixteen... but I spend a lot of time with people older than me (and younger too, come to think of it). I like talking to people o fdiffernt generations, because that way you get lots of new ideas going around.

[Serenata]

Hiya and welcome Ale. I'm 17.

[livelaughlove]

I'm 16 but will be 17 next month. I agree about the whole age issue-- it truly shouldn't matter. I mean, one of my really really good friends is 40 years older than me! And she's not my mom. That should tell you something, haha.

[seasong]

I'm turning 20 pretty soon, talk about old!

[MysticalWriter]

Carpe diem is a wonderful piece of advice, if you ask me :nod:

/Claes

Woah! I was just reading through and I saw this. I love that and I have it under my name.. it is so cool..
Sieze the day!

I am 16 =) just a young spring bird!

[Bakiryu]

I wonder, by my previous posts, how old do you guys think I am?

[andave_ya]

You are eternally young, Bakiryu. :D. Anywhere from fourteen to eighteen?
I'm sixteen.

[Bakiryu]

NO WAY ANDYA! I THOUGHT YOU WERE OLDER!!! (and you were right, I'm between 13 and 19)

[higley]

19... a nondescript age really..

You get spoiled because the last three birthdays (in US) were social milestones of sorts; driving, R movies, becoming legal, etc. Nineteen's nothing except that one's eligible to serve alcohol in restuarants, if they happen to work in one. Which I don't. A coffee shop does not lend itself to spirits, if it did it wouldn't be much of a coffee shop right? ;)

[Mortis Anarchy]

18...it wasn't a big deal...not until I can vote...or get a chance to vote.

[kratsayra]

I am under 25, but only by one year. So it looks like I'm older than most of you in this thread. ;)

[applepie]

I just turned 23 last month

[MysticalWriter]

Hm, in the place where I work, you have to be 18 to touch beer, like handle beer and you have to be 21 to serve it.

[applepie]

That is pretty standard. At least it is here. Someone who isn't 18 can't ring up my wine at the grocery store or anything. I always feel bad since they have to call somone over just to pass the bottle over the scanner.

[symphony]

I'm 17 :) and looking forward to being 18 next november so that i can sing "18 'till I die" :lol:
Nice to meet all u fellas in here, most of whom I thought are older, it's a pleasant surprise to meet so many age-sharers in here :wave: .

[higley]

Ah well in Ohio it's 19 to serve, but some states go to 21 and others lower it to 18. In Maine you can be 17 if you've got a supervisor at least 21 years old.

[sam96]

In the ends of my 15th year.getting oldddd.:D

[MysticalWriter]

wow, 17? Amazing. I wanna live there!! ;) Kidding !
