    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 ing.

    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...

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

    Very wisely put Claes. It just feels like I am so ignorant sometimes, maybe because of where I live
    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

    Ignorant? You? I don't think so, judging from your posts...

    ~sigh~

    I will be 50 someday, then 60, then 70 and then maybe i'll be gone I dont even want to think about that day ~sigh~ I just want to be working till the very last day, and want all my body parts in good working condition, being dependent is not good

    I totally agree with you.I want to be independent...

    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 ), while I seem to be among the oldest geezers here...

    Looks like I'm falling out of the majority this year. (But it will hardly matter, as there's only one week left in the year after I turn 20!)

    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.

    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.
