So on March 28 of this year I turned 23 years old. This slightly freaked me out for various reasons.
- I feel like just yesterday I was 12 years old and the last 5 years especially have raced by.
- I'm now the same age Randy Orton was in 2003 when he was in Evolution. It's weird to think about things like that and what people like him were doing at a young age.
- It's weird being the same age as a lot of wrestlers were back when I was a kid looking up to them.
- I still at times feel like a kid, it feels really weird to me that I'm now classed as an 'adult' or a 'man' because I don't even feel that I look like one.
- I'd say I look about 19 at the absolute tops, although I got my hair cut the other day a bit shorter than I would've liked and it's taken about 3 years off of me!
Maybe looking a lot younger than my 23 years isn't such a bad thing? I'll be pretty happy if in my 30's or 40's I'm looking a lot younger than my actual age.
So how old are you? Do you feel that you look your age? Have you had other people tell you that you look younger/older than you are?
*Edit* When I really think about it, I'm pretty happy to look younthful for my age. I've seen people in their late teens look ridiculously older than they actually are. I remember knowing this one guy who worked at a local shop near me back in 2007 when I was 15. He told me that he was 19 and I thought he was obviously lying because he had a full on 5 o'clock shadow, the voice of an older guy and a really rugged looking face. I guessed he was around 40..... then he showed me ID: he actually WAS 19!
being in that boat! So sure I might not look a full on grown up but damn, it could be A LOT worse.
