    What made me feel old recently was that apparently Firefox has been around for 10 years now and I've been using it for the vast majority of those 10 years (since 2005 I believe). Yet I can still vividly remember Internet explorer and how rubbish it was. In 3 months time youtube will be 10 years old too, and I can still remember some of the first clips I watched in youtube too.

    I'm 27 going on 28 and my husband turns 30 next year. Still I don't really care that I'm getting older: there's a lot to look forward to.

    My husband and I have a little competition going on about who gets mistaken for the youngest. He's beating me with someone thinking he looked 18, the lowest I got was 22.

    A recent reminder of the years gone past are the fact that I graduated high school 10 years ago. I also remember the Internet when it was a useless pit of geocities fan sites and had absolutely nothing useful on it. I remember when usb keys were first realeased and a 128mb one was close to $80. My Internet download limit in high school was 2GB a month and dialup was still prevalent.

    It's amazing how quickly things have changed and it's exciting to see what there will be in another 10 years.

    When people are like "Oh, my first Pokemon game was Pearl/Platinum" and I'm still sitting here hugging my original Red version.

    Also, when I realize that there are people born after the year 2000 that are old enough to carry out an intelligent conversation with me.

    The fact that I can get my driver's license next year and I'm gonna have to apply to a job soon...lol.

    It sucks growing up...I wish I was still a kid so I don't have to pay bills or rent, or anything really. (I pay my phone bill and pretty soon I'll be paying my parents rent). </3
