Getting older...

Beatnik on 2003-11-04T21:04:30

You realize you're getting older when...

  • People call your Sir, Mister and not That geeky kid or hey you.
  • You don't get any student discounts anymore
  • going for a jog results in limping for a week
  • people your age are married and have kids
  • you forget where you left your keys
  • lazyness is no longer a virtue but a habbit

    • Not Necessarily

    • people your age are married and have kids
    In my HS, this age was 16.

    Although, now that I think of it, I felt pretty old at 16. Hm.

    Married at 16? Where did you live? India? There was a girl in my class that had a baby at 18 and that was pretty extraordinary (although I know a few girls that got pregnant earlier). I hardly know anyone getting married at 18, let alone 16.

    I've done or realized *all* of those things today. :-)

    I know... I hid some hints to your good fortune in my recent entries. Ofcourse, I couldn't accidentally mention an umbillical cord in my Cut! post.

    It's worse than that

    You realize you're really getting old when...

    ...you think some of the guys you're hanging with are about your age, and it turns out they're 10 years older.

    ...you see some woman, and think, She is All Right!... and it turns out she's 50.

    Actually, when I see a woman that is All right , she's usually a lot younger and that makes me feel even worse about my age.
