Another year down...
« on: February 15, 2009, 06:18:39 am »
This one passed me by rather quickly.  Seems like the years speed up as you get older, with time flying by before you even have an idea of what you'd like to do with it.

So I turn 26 today.  The feelings of being young at heart seem to drift a bit further away, but not so far as to be forgotten.  Indeed there's still a long road ahead in my life, and hopefully I've yet to reach the halfway mark still.

Still, I can't help but feel old now...  Maybe it's the surroundings here, with most other forum goers bein' younger than me.

But enough of that, it's time for me to have FUN!  Got most of the week off for vacation, going to shoot some cops in paintball, and got a big party planned for tuesday!

Happy birthday! Yeah, I think that you would feel old, considering I'm 16 1/2 and a lot of other people are young as well.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Don't get killed in paintball. Considering you're about twice my age...
Oh yeah, but don't feel too old. Personally, I consider my mental level to be of about a 22 year old. I sure as hell am smarter than a few I know.

And you're twice as modest.

Anyhow, happy birthday Fou--good times are around the corner.

Happy birthday, Capitan!
Have a nerdcake:


Be sure to get padded up before going paintballing. Friend of mine went on a paintballing trip not too long ago, came back and her entire thigh was one giant bruise.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Your almost twice my age, so I don't have a clue what old age feels like. But then again, neither do you. You have to be in your late 30s or 40's for that. As long as you're in your 20s you should be considered a young adult.

May the Sword of Urlacher shine bright on this day for you.




At 23, I still feel VERY young.  At 26, who knows?  The "you're only as old/young as you feel" argument is worth at least some merit.  Don't stress, just be the best!  (it rhymes, see?)

Happy birthday, man. No point in worrying about the years in themselves; just try to live them happily and productively.

Nothing like shooting the shit out of people to make you feel young again!

Got a few good hits in, and got about three good welts out of it  :D

I'll show off my battle scars in the pictures thread.

Fun times, but it definitely proved I need to start working out more.  I was feeling holy-shit-out-of-breath pretty early into it.  (Doesn't help with a mask that limits your ventilation)

Happy Birthday! Also it's okay you won't be old until another 14 years.
