Hi Guys
Do people born after 1985 really exist?
They do!
There out there.
And there beginning to get all up in my space! (not the website mysace, my actual space)
OOPS! I forgot, I’m in their space!
I’m a 27 year old freshman, but if anybody asks, I’m 23!
I started college in January 2007. Before that time, people under age 22 (for the least) did not really exist in my world.
So I had to go to a freshmen retreat this weekend. With all the freshmen…….. gasp!!!!!!
It was not as bad as it sounds.
Well, except for the SNAKE THAT CRAWLED INTO MY ROOM!!!!!!
Otherwise, it was fairly ok, I discovered that I could still squat, and on a log far less.
So we were doing this exercise where we stood on logs and pretended we were surrounded by larva.
A pretend helicopter was coming and we needed to sort ourselves with the youngest first
and the oldest last.
So they were trying to find out who were the oldest, one person said lets start with
January 1989
1989!!!!!! Who on earth is born in 1989????????
People I know are not born in 1989, or 1988 or 1987, my youngest friend post college is 22 and I make fun of him for it all the time.
So I just said listen, I’m the oldest.
One of the guys said “Are you sure, are you over 20?”
Yes.
I’m sure.
I’m very sure.
I desperately needed an outlet. I have way too much crap on my laptop that the school newspaper can’t handle.
Would be great to hear from some of you.
Hope you like this stuff.
Are the teenagers invading your space too? Tell me about it.

27 Year Old Freshman 
I understand how you feel.
I was 23 when I started university, and my sister did the same thing when she was 26.
At the time I thought i was the oldest but I realised that there are people (very few people..lol)older than I am..and even older than you, who made a late start.
I am now 24. Before I came here, all my friends were my age or older. Now I find myself surrounded by people who are 5 and 6 years younger than I am…sigh
Life takes some interesting turns. We just have to learn and adapt.
Look at it this way…these years may turn out to be the most interesting of the MANY we have had so far. And even if they don’t, at least we will have a degree.
But just thought I would stop by to let you know you are not alone.
Keep yuh head up! God bless.
very interesting.

Obviously a couple of years late, but I have to say that I LOVE this blog :D. It gave me quite a few laughs. And it’s smart too :).
I too am thinking of dusting off the old college trail and going back, and guess what, I’ll be 27 when I do. No surprise I found this site.
Keep rocking, you’ve got a fan in me! 🙂
