It's my birthday today, and it sucks. Life goes by too fast, and before you know it it'll all be over. I can remember my last birthday like it was 2 months ago. Fuck this, I need a major change.

happy birthday, i know the feeling you are having. Weeks seems to go by like days, months like weeks, and years like months. I have been told that this happens when every day in your life is the same as the last. When there is nothing new happening in your life then you need to make some changes, maybe a career change, move house, explore the world maybe?

imho it's simply that, as one gets older, each year is a smaller proportion of your life (and you're obviously busier) so every year is shorter than the last in your mind...wonder what 90 year olds would say to confirm or deny this theory... :-)

interesting theory, most 90 year olds i know do bugger all with their days, time must surely seem to stretch out for them.
Although even if you are busy, if one day is so much like the last then there is not enough difference for the mind to seperate the days in time, imo.

Agreed. Birthdays as a little kid are like a slice of heaven. I'm only 19, gonna have one in a month or two, and it's already depressing me to no end.

I need to do all of those things you mentioned Jazembo. I'm only 24 today, but I feel like I'm getting old. It upsets me to think that I've been on this planet for 24 years, and I don't really have anything to show for it.

I turned 20early this year, my 21st is next jan, I still feel and act like I'm 15 though. Fuck being mature, it's not as fun.
You know what you gotta do? What I'm planning on doing this weekend - take bouncy balls down to the mall and just throw them around!
There's a long serive hall that goes from the outside area to a min internal artery type hall on the inside so you can see people walking along it, and we were gonna roll bowling balls down it but
1) it'd hurt someone 2) where the fuck can you get bowling balls? and they'd be expensive
so bouncy balls it is.

Word of cheesy advice
If you wanna do it, do it! Life's too short to be thinking when you're 50 that you should've seen the world, changed jobs etc.
Where there's a will there's a way...
