How old will you be in 2007? (Please take the poll)

[Scheherazade]

Are you changing your age bracket? Are you finally getting your driving licence? Let us know!

:D

How old will you be in 2007?

[Laindessiel]

No and yes, Scher. Although my 10-year old brother is more excited about me getting my driver's license than I do. http://www.websmileys.com/sm/crazy/043.gif

Turning 18 this January!

(Yikes.)

[Pensive]

Will turn fifteen in the end of 2007. :) Time passes quickly heh.

[Misscaroline]

Yeah, I just turned 18, and it's pretty weird. Knowing that I could move out of the house and start my own life however I want is great, until I remember about that whole "paying for college on my own" bit... I'll be 19 approximately 11 months from now, though...

[Laindessiel]

I've read your profile and I remember knowing you're already 19, Miss C. Wow. You're just 2 months older than I!http://www.websmileys.com/sm/party/fest22.gif

[Petrarch's Love]

Hey, I move up an age bracket this year! Where's Koa? She and I need to commiserate about the horrific prospect of being a whole quarter century old. :bawling: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Niamh]

I'll be 24 this year. Sometimes i wish i were still in school. none of this working malarky.hehehe. but then again i wouldn't be earning the money i'm on if that were the case. Am Also saving for an apartment. Cant afford anything more than a one bed though.

[Virgil]

Hey, I move up an age bracket this year! Where's Koa? She and I need to commiserate about the horrific prospect of being a whole quarter century old. :bawling: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I won't even mention my upcoming age. It's a horrid number. I wouldn't mind being a quater century old.

[dramasnot6]

15....scary,scary stuff.....why cant i skip it all and go to 28?

[Jean-Baptiste]

I'll be 28 this year. Seems like such a nonsense age to be. Who turns 28? Nobody does that anymore. :goof:

Virgil, I've been meaning to tell you, when my dad was your age he seemed like he was becoming decrepit, always bemoaning his outrageously high number of years--but then he turned 50 a couple of years ago, and I've never seen him looking so youthful, vital, and healthy. It makes me think of Odysseus standing up to the challenge of Laodamas.

My dad, before the age of fifty:

indeed, so long as I had youth and strength, I was among the first athletes of the age. Now, however, I am worn out by labour and sorrow, for I have gone through much both on the field of battle and by the waves of the weary sea
~Odysses, before the competition

My dad after 50:

"Young men," said he, "come up to that throw if you can, and I will throw another disc as heavy or even heavier. If anyone wants to have a bout with me let him come on, for I am exceedingly angry; I will box, wrestle, or run, I do not care what it is
~Odysseus, after he has kicked the pants off all the young men

:lol: Anyway, I can see the same thing happening in your case, Virgil. Look forward to 50!

[Idril]

I'm actually going to have a very significant birthday next year but I'm trying my best to forget about it. :p

[toni]

I'll be 17 June next year!! :banana: :D

[mir]

I join the fifteen year olds! :D hmm, too bad this quiz wasn't two months earlier - i could have qualified for the next age bracket down!

It's weird . . . time passes so fast . . .

[dramasnot6]

I'm actually going to have a very significant birthday next year but I'm trying my best to forget about it. :p

Aww im sure its not bad at all idril! How old will ya be?

[Virgil]

I'm actually going to have a very significant birthday next year but I'm trying my best to forget about it. :p

Oh, you will turn 40. That was a very hard for me. It paralized me when I turned it.

[Virgil]

I'll be 28 this year. Seems like such a nonsense age to be. Who turns 28? Nobody does that anymore. :goof:

Thanks Jean-B. I feel youthful, vital, and healthy now. It's the realization that most of the years are actually behind you rather than ahead of you. It's sort of like a Kirkenkard fear of life coming to an end.

[Idril]

Oh, you will turn 40. That was a very hard for me. It paralized me when I turned it.

You are not helping. :p :rolleyes:

[outrageous]

im turning 20 this year :S:S:S

[Poetess]

I`m turning 20 the coming July..
Growing old eh? x(

[brainstrain]

Oh, i've already turned my age for this year...but in a mere 4 months + the rest of december I will be a wizened 16...

Me? 16? I would never have imagined myself so old. As a toddler, even 12 seemed so gargantuan (pardon my spelling heh)

I'll be getting a driver's license (the youngest in my family, my two sisters both waited till 17 mwaha!) too, and my main birthday present would be not having to pay for the insurance.

Seeing how much I've acheived this past Fall Semester, I dare to have high hopes for the Spring. Who knows what the sweet sixteen will bring for me?

Happy Holidays to everyone!

[Schokokeks]

Hey, I move up an age bracket this year!
Me tooo ! :D I'll be twenty in March, and I am very very satisfied and happy about my age :nod:. Twenty has always been my lucky number :D.


You are not helping.
Oh, dear Idril, don't worry, you're such a sweetheart, and since you've been like that for almost fourty years now, it is very unlikely you will stop at a random date ! ;) :nod:

[Niamh]

Twenty was such an odd age. I felt like i was in limbo. Not quite a teenager anymore, but not yet twentyone Twenty first birthdays are one of the most important in Ireland, celebrated more than Eighteenths. Dont know why its still important though because you are legally able to do everything at Eighteen now unlike in the past when you had to be twentyone to vote. think thats were the tradition started. After all its only a tradition now!

[Jay]

Not changing my bracket just yet.

[Nightshade]

Im changing my bracket but isnt this thread a little early?
IM GOING TO BE 20!!

[ClaesGefvenberg]

How old will you be in 2007?I'll be 48, and I note that I am heading the field so far, with Virgil as a close second...

It is now 23:45 here, so I'll be 47 in a quarter of an hour... :D Yes, I was born on Christmas Day 1959.

/Claes

[dramasnot6]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ClaesGefvenberg!!!!

[Madhuri]

Claes, it seems the whole world celebrates your b'day..:D

[JaneEyre1986]

I'll be 21 in July. And no, I'm not going to drink.

[Anthony Furze]

At 50 in 2006, must make me one of the oldest.

Dont feel 50 though, being around school children helps to keep the child alive.

[Lily Adams]

I'll be fifteen in May.

[dramasnot6]

Ill be 15 in may too lily! What day for you? Im on the 4th :)

[dramasnot6]

Do you teach kids Anthony?

[cuppajoe_9]

Next November will mark my twentieth revolution around the Sun.

[Silv]

17 in Feb..I feel old. ._.

[Anthony Furze]

Sure are a lot of young people on here...that s wonderful to see.

dramasnot6 : yes, Im a teacher of old fashioned O levels in Pakistan. I teach English Language and Literature, as well as geography of Pakistan.

My classes are final year-15 and 16 year-olds.

[dramasnot6]

Very cool Anthony! Teaching literature must be so rewarding.....

[RobinHood3000]

Same bracket this year...

[SleepyWitch]

I'll be 28 this year. Seems like such a nonsense age to be. Who turns 28? Nobody does that anymore. :goof:

:lol: Anyway, I can see the same thing happening in your case, Virgil. Look forward to 50!

it makes me think of an old guy full of hormones that have slumbered for 35 years, have suddenly been woken up and haven't caught on to his chronological age!
well in general... but in this particular case, I think our Virgil is much too nice and decent to turn out that way :)

I'll be 26, same age bracket as last year. That's not much better than 28. You run out of significant birthdays after you turn 21. I liked 17 and 21. Although you're officially grown-up, come-of-age, mature, major and what not over here at 18, 21 sounded so much better.
I think I'll stop counting or skip the even numbers.

[dramasnot6]

15 doesnt sound too bad...but i kinda like the sound of 14 for some reason. It was nice in a way, like young but not too young. 15 seems so much older for some reason...
2007 is an exciting year though! Ive made the grand decision to go to university right before it ends. GAH! (a good type of gah)

Oh sleepy,tis not the age that makes the person! i can assure you that you have a very wise soul no matter your age :)

[Walter]

An amazing three-quarters under thirty!
I hardly know what to say.
Maybe I should change my logon name to Rip, as in van Winkel, . . . . . but it sounds younger.
74 and, no, no words of advice. :)
Lots of good memories, though.

[Shannanigan]

I'm stuck in my age bracket for a while :p I turn 21 in March...wooo legal all over again! lol...

When you grow up knowing that 21 is legal (for clubbing and drinking), and then move at the age of 16 to a place where 18 is legal, you celebrate 18 but then you go back to visit and you're not legal again...it takes away the magic of the age...

I guess it all doesn't matter, since no matter how you look at it I've been clubbing since 18 and there's no changing that...

[abecedarian]

Since the only way I know of to stop aging is to die..turning 46 isn't so bad after all:p

[vheissu]

I'll be 21 in March...don't know how to feel about it. I like being 20...oh well, c'est la vie!

[Adolescent09]

Just turned 16.

[ClaesGefvenberg]

Since the only way I know of to stop aging is to die..turning 46 isn't so bad after all:pWell said. I have come close to buying the farm a couple of times, and that tends to put things in a different light. Experience counts for a lot more than racking up a certain number of birthdays...

[Adudaewen]

I'm going to take a moment to pout, so bear with me.

:bawling: I turned 25 this December, so I have begun to weep for my wasted youth.
Its depressing. I'm a quarter of a century old. I have lived 1/4 of my estimated life. Its enough to make one go out and get something pierced and tatooed and drink alcohol shots off of a sweaty guy named Chad! :bawling:

:blush: not that I did that or anything.

[ClaesGefvenberg]

Its depressing. I'm a quarter of a century old. Why would that be depressing? Note the very good point made by abecedarian in the previous post. Cheer up :D


I have lived 1/4 of my estimated life.Err... Sorry to cause even more grief, but I think you passed that particular milestone years ago... I for one most definitely do not expect to be around for my 100th birthday, but that's ok. I'm not particularly certain I want to either.

/Claes

/Claes

Thank you very much for trying to cheer me up. Not sure why but this birthday just hit me really hard. *sigh* I think it's because I'm still unsure of where I want to go with my life, not to mention all of my friends (all but 1!!!!) got married this year or had a baby or graduated. *grumbles* damned over-achievers.

As for my estimated life line, I'm sure that barring a catastrophic meteor accident or Arrmaggedon, I'll probably be around to see my 100th. Judging of course that nearly all the women in my family (on both sides) have seen 100 years. The ones who didn't see 100 at least saw 90. So I'm really just playing the stakes.

[ClaesGefvenberg]

I see. But hey: look at it this way: I'm nearly twice your age, and I still wonder what I'll do when I grow up. :p Besides, I left a lot of things late too, and I have no regrets in that respect.


I'll probably be around to see my 100th. Judging of course that nearly all the women in my family (on both sides) have seen 100 years.Really? Amazing... So, you probably have both good genes and a fair bit of time. :thumbs_up Only one piece of advice left then: Carpe diem. :nod:

I am fourteen but will be fifteen in March. I will finally get to drive with my parent but oh well.

[dramasnot6]

I am fourteen but will be fifteen in March. I will finally get to drive with my parent but oh well.

Very cool! You should look forward to driving, gives you some power! :) I am going to learn to drive when I turn 15 too and am rather excited, I will have to start saving for an electric car.

[baddad]

............some days i am fifteen, racing down a frozen river on sharply honed ice skates. Somedays I am twelve and letting off fireworks and trying not to get caught by the police. And some days I am older, more mature, wiser. Then there are the days when injury or hard work make me feel as if I am seventy, stooped, achy, a little cranky. And there have been many days of falling in love that bequeath the experience of timelessness to life, a revelry of having always existed, always existing. But in fact, as I move once again into the sign of Taurus this spring i will receive the gift of 50 fantastic years. Yeah for me!!!!!!

[Jean-Baptiste]

it makes me think of an old guy full of hormones that have slumbered for 35 years, have suddenly been woken up and haven't caught on to his chronological age!

What are you saying about my dad? :flare: :lol: Yes, it does sound a bit slimy.

You sound a lot older than fifteen. I'm sixteen and own an '85 Mercedes Benz SD.

[Lily Adams]

Ill be 15 in may too lily! What day for you? Im on the 4th :)

Whoah! Totally missed this post! Sorry about that. Mine's the second.

[zanna]

Currently 17 (according to my birth certificate), but I feel like I've been stuck at eight for quite a few years. I still feel like that silly little girl that wears pig tails all the time, and froofy dresses, and laughs at lame jokes. Maybe it's something of the shyness coming in. And wow, we have some great kids! I'd have never guessed how young some of y'all are, you sound very sophisticated, etc, etc.

[Cien]

I'll be eighteen. I dislike the fact that eighteen means freedom because I have seen too much of what being younger than eighteen can do to imprison people in bad situations. And seeing all the incredibly smart minors here illustrates even more what a big laugh it is that the world thinks under eighteen = stupid and helpless. But I'm thankful that I myself am finally reaching this age.

[ClaesGefvenberg]

And wow, we have some great kids! I'd have never guessed how young some of y'all are, you sound very sophisticated, etc, etc.Very good point. That may in fact be one of several reasons to why I like it so much here. There is a lot of bright young (and some not so young ;) )people here. People with minds still open and receptive, and yet as you say, very sophisticated. Good on you, all! :thumbs_up

[Alexei]

I am going to celebrate my seventeenth birthday on the next December.

[seasong]

I'm about to turn 20. Which seems incredibly ancient, I never thought I would actually make it out of my teens.

[raspberry_jelly]

The big 20, after a year of being 19 it’s quite a shock to the system. I can no longer be an irresponsible teen.

[Jay]

Not really lie, they call it denial these days :p

[Lioness_Heart]

I'll be 17 in september!!! it sounds so scary. At last I'll be able to drive!!!!!
But I'll start THINKING that I'm 17 in March, brecause that's when all my friends will alreeady be 17. But I fully intend to make the most of my 16-ness until september.

[amuse]

Not really lie, they call it denial these days :plol

:D :D :D

[MattG]

Changing my age bracket.

Teh big 4 - 0.

[Morad]

I'm shocked with some of the results :S Virgil .. How old are you "Be honest" :D, Pensive, I thought you were much older than 15 and it's nice to find those who passed their fifties.

I'm going to be 21 this year inshaa Allah. :) .. Thank you!

I'm 15, will be 16 Febuary 22nd.

[Psycheinaboat]

Yep, my golden Birthday is when I am 21....I should mention that it is on a Friday:)

[Miss_Hanan]

Close, but no cigar!


My birthday is the 15th of November, and I'll be turning 18.

[Weisinheimer]

I'm 20 and I feel old, probably because most of my friends are at least a couple years younger than me. Also because, looking back on 2 whole decades, I don't feel like I've acomplished much.

15 in March. I'm kind of scared about getting older. I can't believe I am this old, it's all gone by so fast.

[dramasnot6]

Im turning 15 this year as well Dark! I feel the same way, everyone tells me that its such a young age but to me it feels like its been a lot.

[ClaesGefvenberg]

15 in March. I'm kind of scared about getting older. I can't believe I am this old, it's all gone by so fast.I'm sorry to have to tell you this then, but she sad and sorry truth is that the years will keep moving on faster and faster... There is a reason for this, of course. See below.


Im turning 15 this year as well Dark! I feel the same way, everyone tells me that its such a young age but to me it feels like its been a lot.That, my friends, is only natural: It is a lot seen from your perspective. For you, 15 years is the equivalent of your entire lives, right? For me, alas, it represents less than a third of my entire life thus far... It is all about the perspective.

A suggestion, if I may be so bold: Do not measure your lives by your count of past birthdays. That can never be much more than a countdown to the inevitable end. Look at what you experience instead, and enjoy it to the best of your ability.

/Claes

[RobinHood3000]

Agreed. I felt pretty smart at 15.

Then I turned 16. :( At that age, more often than not, retrospect comes with a healthy dose of :brickwalling.

[Shannanigan]

Ah, 15. That was a good age. That was the year before I ruined everything by turning 16, lol.

I was in disbelief when I turned 20. I turn 21 next month and I'm more comfortable with it now...

[King of Frogs]

I'll be turning 18 in June and am terrified :eek2: :eek2: :eek: - I barely feel 17 yet! On top of that, I'll be leaving school, going to university and leaving home! *stifles scream*

As I said before, age is a relative thing. An interesting comparison: This thread actually inspired me to start a similar thread in another forum: One that has to do with my work... The age distribution is a bit different over there - See the attachment.

I am finally reaching the average age there (they still call me a young pup :lol: ), while I seem to be among the oldest geezers here... :goof:

Hi everyone, I'm 21 and I feel very old, my hair is also thinning out on top which I guess is pretty bad for my age.

Yeah I got that, two years later though around the age of 18. thats when it kicks in that your youth is over.

I've gotten over growing older now though, as you ultimately can't do anything about it there's no use in worrying about it.

[Lioness_Heart]

It's a shame. I'm finally getting the chance to be a young person, and people have now started telling me that I need to act more mature... I can't win. Although, to be fair, I am the youngest in my year, so I should be allowed to act younger than the rest of the. And I intend to make the most of my 16-ness.

[tamta]

I'll be 17 :)

:D whoa! by the weight of the topics in here i almost thought i was listening to all 40-ups(not in a bad sense though :p )! Are u people too young or am i just too unsmart(or should i say uncool?) not to be half as knowledgeble as u guys??!! :blush:

Oh and i am going to turn 18 next November!! Gosh i m old!! :lol:

[sinef]

ı turned 21 in February...
ı think when compared, ı am old, too... :) :)

[Bebbin]

I am sixteen going on seventeen... and I know that I'm naive...

:D

[TurkeyBLT]

Wow... feels like the youngest here!
Horray for youth!

(I'm fourteen for goodness sake! Thus... I could be wrong about being the youngest :D)

[ClaesGefvenberg]

(I'm fourteen for goodness sake! Thus... I could be wrong about being the youngest :D)Well... There are only four of you in the 10 - 14 bracket (http://www.online-literature.com/forums/poll.php?do=showresults&pollid=354), so you are definitely close. Saphira is 11 yo, but I don't know about the other two?

[dramasnot6]

[Madhuri]

[Yanni Kang]

[ElissaDido]

Actually, I just turned 16 this January. :)

[GrayFoxDown]

GrayFoxDown (But Not Out):thumbs_up

[Robinflamingo]

I am fifty. I turned fifty in the hospital following surgery for Ovarian Cancer. I'm turning 51 in October. And then the October following that I'll be 52. I will not stop having birthdays any time soon, nosirreebob.

:D

[dbowen73]

Im 15 i turn 16 this month actually a weird fact about my b-day is that it cuases the date of the day i get my liscense to be Sept 11 lol kinda weird dont know how mch driving i will be doing that first day!!

[Nossa]

I've turned 19 this year :D:D Pretty nice age...I hope..lol

[applepie]

I turned 23 this year... I think. Yep 23;) I feel both older and younger at the same time, so it gets a little confusing. After kids the years fly by and it makes you feel old when you know this time next year you will be registering your son for kindergarten. Now I do feel old... makes me wanna cry. Oh well. Hope everyone else is having a good year.

[totyfroty]

I will be 19 this year. I loved being 18 ,it is kinda cool

have a nice day

[Mrs. Dalloway]

by the end of this year I'll be 20! :eek:

[AC_fan]

I'll be 17 by the end of the month.

[stella]

I'll be 20 next September .....

[Brigitte]

Well, I turned 18 on March 1st. Nothing really special about this age except... having to start thinking about paying for college. I can't wait to be 20 so that when people say I'm an adult, it'll be justified. I still feel like a kid and I'm so scared because of all the pressures my family is putting on me, "because [I'm] an adult." Nonsense. 18-year olds are still quite youthful and unprepared. ahh. :<

[Petruchio]

I'll be turning 17 on 10th september this year!
But I am not really feeling anything...if you know what i mean!=)
My best friend,and a few other people( and all those people's judgement I trust),they say that I don't act my age!
I act about 3 or 4 years younger!And I feel that too.(but not all the time)
But I love myself the way i am,thats what makes me me!
And I am not planning to change any time soon!=)and anyway,the people about whom I care and whom I love,they all love me just the way I am....and thats what matters!

[FrozenDuchess]

I am 24.

Blegh, I sometimes forget how old I am...its a skill really.

[mheartin]

I'll be nineteen in September. Age of legality in my zoo!

[Lyn]

Anybody 28 ish? I feel a bit lonely.

[Virgil]

I'm 45 if that makes you feel better. ;)

[MaryLupin]

I turn 51 this year and I absolutely love it. You know why? For the first time since I turned 22 I have time enough to sit down and talk to people I don't even know.

[Virgil]

[subterranean]

:lol: I guess we can add one to last year's age and come up with the number. But I don't see you on the poll. I'm going to assume you're 99 years old. ;) Isn't this your picture Subby?

Thanks Virgil. So why Virgil? As Dante's guide or as poet?

Why shy? The white hair really suits you.

[eiram_ael27]

[RoCKiTcZa]

don't let my picture fool you... i may look over 20 but i'm only 13... possibly the youngest around here...

[sbmarti2]

Damn, I feel old, and I'm only 22. The worst part is most people here are probably far more well read than I am.

[Granny5]

Damn, I feel old, and I'm only 22. The worst part is most people here are probably far more well read than I am.

22!!!! I barely remember when my youngest child turned 22.:lol:
Actually, it was 3 years ago but I can remember far better when he
was born than his 22nd birthday. That's when you know you're really
getting old.:lol:

[jon1jt]

Damn, I feel old, and I'm only 22. The worst part is most people here are probably far more well read than I am.

[hedbanger]

Just like almost every other site on the internet, the majority of the users appear to be below 30 =)

[farnoosh]

I turned 15 in Augest.16th

[brainstrain]

Ah wow! Imagine my surpise to see a post by myself on the first page of this thread, when I have only logged on here perhaps three times this year?

Yikes, I was 15 back then...it seems an odd number. Being 16, I can't quite imagine myself as a 15 year old >.<

[ahsiam]

i am going to be 17 this december. i dont know if its bad or good.:confused:

[thelastmelon]

i am going to be 17 this december. i dont know if its bad or good.:confused:

It's probably good, Ahsiam. Nothing wrong with 17. :)

[crazefest456]

wow..there are so many people turning 17...I always have frigid cold weather on my birthday (ugh...chicago in december)

[Virgil]

i am going to be 17 this december. i dont know if its bad or good.:confused:

:D This madse me smile. One doesn't have a choice, does one. ;)

[Alexei]

i am going to be 17 this december. i dont know if its bad or good.:confused:

Me too. I don't think it is going to be so different, but who knows :lol:

Crazefest456, I have the same "problem". We used to have a lot of snow in December, but now it isn't exactly so, there isn't a lot of snow in the winter. Anyway it is still COLD, but I enjoy it ;)

[thegreenthing]

Turned 16 in may, and I'm not complaining...

[ahsiam]

:D This madse me smile. One doesn't have a choice, does one. ;)

i dont have a choice thats why i am confused. i dont know what should i do. something different or........ should be just like the way it is .............. i think i should be more matured but i dont think, i am:( . all of my friends are going to be 18 or 19. but i am only going to be 17. in that way i am sad too.


Me too. I don't think it is going to be so different, but who knows
yeh may be..........or..........

[abbi]
