amyr Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Ok so I'm bored writing a 3 - 5 year plan on what to do with the network/computers/laptops etc and i was given a key ring the other day that says: "How old would you be if you didn't know how old you were?" And I decided that I would like to be either 4 again (ok so thats only 20 years younger than I am today as hooray its my bday! ) or 18/19 and living at uni etc what would everyone else be?
webman Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Happy birthday Amy :occasion4: :occasion6: Difficult to say really.. I'm 19 the moment so its pretty much a 'world's-my-oyster' stage - don't think I'd want to be anything else at the moment
Jake Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 14, easy Young enough to not have any worries in life, but old enough to enjoy the hedonistic benefits of life By the way, if you seek a birthday kiss, my cage is down in Corridor 4, Room 2B I have party poppers ! At least thats what I call them
localzuk Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 I think I would be 19 again, redo uni and not mess it up this time. Actually go out partying and the like too...
amyr Posted March 1, 2007 Author Posted March 1, 2007 excellent so i'm not the only bored person this afternoon then? Definately 19 again for me now, just remember my first year of uni - was great fun, especially every afternoon spent in the local (well every afternoon when not in a lecture asleep!) i would also like to redo uni to see if i could improve on my degree as i'm sure i could have done better if i actually took my books to the pub with me @webman: thanks have had that a lot today but hey you only get 1 birthday a year @jake: behave and stay in your cage, and i might be down later
Andrew_C Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 I'd like to be a teenager again, so I could know everything all over again. As in;- Why didn't life's problems hit me when I was a teenager and knew everything?
_Bat_ Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Happy Birthday! I am 20 (will be 21 in May) and like Webman, I don't think i'd want to be anything else. In my opinion the ages of 18 - 28 are where I would want to stay if I had the choice .
robert.mabbutt Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Its my birthday today as well. 22 i still wish i was a student back at uni again such great times! and sleeping till 12 lol Happy Birthday Amy!! Robert
Lee_K_81 Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Wow, today is popular for birthdays! It's my fiancee's too! Happy birthday Robert and Amy! I'm starting to feel old and i'm not quite 26 yet!
amyr Posted March 1, 2007 Author Posted March 1, 2007 Happy Birthday Robert! its also st david's day and all of the daffodils are out
CyberNerd Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 16 seemed to be a good year, no school, fake ID's but still child train/bus tickets eek. that was 15yrs ago !
djm968 Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 "How old would you be if you didn't know how old you were?" : I looked at this from a different angle "How old would you think you were" and having looked in the mirror today.... 45! Must stop going out on school nights!
mac_shinobi Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 I would have to do this backwards. I would be born when I was really old so like when im a hundred years old and be a complete billionaire and do what I wanted and get younger and younger as my life went on , travel around and then I'd die with an orgasm when I was born that way when my life started I would only have to count backwards to establish how old I was and hence do it that way. And if I didnt know how old I was at the time the question was asked, I wouldnt really care anyway because I would be having such a great time hehe
russdev Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Must admit 15/16 but knowing what I know now and so can be confidant. As it my surprise some of you who know me as a teen i was very shy person can't tell know through
alan-d Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 70 - then I could wear what I liked, push in front of queues, and say what I liked without being politically correct cos noone would take any notice cos I'm just an old bloke
sidewinder Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 late but Happy Birthday Amy Id like to be 14/15 again because everything was fun, no exams, parties every week, good times Also 17/18 would be good as not much responsibility...although i was at college then so it was fairly boring
_Bat_ Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Must admit 15/16 but knowing what I know now and so can be confidant. What do you know now that you wished you knew then?
russdev Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Life, universe and everything.... No when you are 15/16 you are young keen but no very little about the real world but by time been around the block. My main regret is not being as confident when i was younger but alas that is life... God we sound like we should be grumpy old men... Russ
srochford Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 I *am* a grumpy old man :-) and in such a young forum I don't if I dare admit that I was 49 last weekend... Definitely like to be about 18 again but knowing what I know now and with the money I have now (although as a student in the late 70s I had a decent grant and a part time job so I wasn't really skint!)
contink Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Good lord... another b'day... other halfs, my adoptive mothers (I have about 4 mums it seems) all on same day... Anyway... my age of choice would be around about 6... When the biggest problem was how to stack the bricks so they wouldn't topple or how to wangle another ice cream out of my grandparents. I stick to the "I resign as an adult" methodology though... They were the days
RoyG Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 60 sounds good to me. Mortgage paid off ages ago, work because you want to rather than have to, bus pass, rail card, discount on pub meals & QuikFit jobs, £200 a year for heating bills, don't have to impress anyone, behave pretty much how you want - the list goes on & on. Guess I'm happy as I am! Anyway, growing old is compulsory, but growing up is optional! RoyG
