being 20 is the worst. That long and lonely stretch when most of your friends are of bar-going age, and you're still a few months off.

I hate not getting respect from older people at work, especially when I am put in charge of them. Just because you're older than me, doesn't mean you do your job better than me, or know more about your job than I do. Fuck! There's a reason I'm your supervisor and not the other way around! Being around for 10-15 years more than me doesn't make you any smarter, etc. Anyway..

Car insurance SUCKS right now too. I have a 2000 Eclipse, so I pay out the ass for my insurance. Under 25 and male- I've got the worst demographic for shopping for car insurance.

Also, your early 20s is when most psychological disorders will really begin showing themselves and taking precedence in your personality. When I turned 19, I got horribly depressed, went to the doctor, went to the psych, etc. Got diagnosed, put on meds, and now I'm fucking awesome. It might be that it's largely a transitional period, between being dependent on your parents and growing into "real" adulthood.

Hrmm, anyway, I love being 20. I don't wanna grow up...

i guess i should join you down that road...why is it that it takes us untill this point to realize we have to stop making mistakes and start fixing what we have undone?

Actually, I just figured that when I turned 20... Of course, I'm 22 now, will be 23 in October and I'm STILL paying for those mistakes.

I think that never stops. In our thirties we will still make mistakes we thought we should have done in the twenties...

Some wise man wrote "The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one."

Speaking of that, thanks for the thing you wrote on getting laid globally. That should be useful information for whenever I do get to traveling. Of course, I took Spanish 1 and Spanish 2 in high school, so one of the main things I learned was to get to know the culture in advance, just enough so you don't do too much damage, and at the same time you'll learn more WHILE you're there. That way you can actually see what was different about real life culture shock and what they taught you in a classroom w/ a book.

ah cool so you read it! (did you vote? did you give me a five? it's a contest after all, i have to beg votes, hehe)...

well, travel is good, that's all i can say. i like to travel.
 
I'd imagine that it can be quite strenuous at really high elevations though. One could become a member in the mile high club. The flight height for most passenger planes is 11.000 meters (~33.000 feet) that's probably the highest you can get easily, allthough that wouldn' be outside. But there's another kind of thrill to it.

If by any chance the mistakes you haven't made yet include; 1) Going with someone from another state (MA) and/or 2) Going with someone who is too old for you; I might be persuaded to join you :)


Of course we could just talk about science fiction.
