This is only my screenshot, the original doesn't have a watermark.

Though I'd bring this back to the front page. For those that are releatively new to the forums you may find some stuff of interest. :)

I'd like to share with you a funny story that happened to me when I was an undergrad university student - one day, I was coming home on the university shuttle bus, and I got off at my stop - and I ran into a very young (elementary-school-age) boy on a bicycle - the boy asked me "what grade are you in?" - I of course thought that was very funny, as I was at least 18-years-of-age - but apparently my looks were deceiving. :)

You are a valued member of these forums Chip - Good luck in your studies. :)

A quick two years on,so I must be 50 now.

Thanks BK! I'm proud to be a part of these forums and do look up to a lot of you!

Thanks, Buckleysmom!
RosnSC: Just a few days after your's, May 21.

I just turned 57 but I'm the opposite of Copmom.....I could pass for.....60 something. My hairs natural color is gray now....praise God for hair dye!

Arc....and here I thought you were in your 30's!

Awe....now we have 2 kids.....Chip & Mittens. I feel so blessed! Seriously....it's great to have you both here. The best times of my teenage years were the ones I spent around older people. I hope we can be as much of an encouragement to you as they were to me.

Mittens, I'm a May baby, too. What day is yours? Mine is the same day as your age is. :)

Ike was President when I was born LOL. 51 years old and like the bunny "just keep going and going".

Sorry, Chip, but I beat you by a bit. Just turned 18 this May.

You were born on a Thursday.
Your birthstone is Emerald.
The season was Spring.
You were born in the Chinese year of the Monkey.
The US President was George H. W. Bush (Republican).
The UK Prime Minister was John Major (Conservative).
You are 18 years 1 month 0 days old.
It is 334 days until your next birthday.
In dog years you are 126 years old. <--- Well, I think that's a mistake!
You are 6,605 days old.
You are approximately 158,536 hours old.
You are approximately 570,728,735 seconds old.

Yes, it's good to hear that Chip knows his way.
I'm not so pessimistic looking at our young people. I had and have lots of younger people around me, and though not all of them are millionaires or doctors today, they all succeeded in life. I remember quite well, how my parents' generation spoke about the ill-bred children, and even we, who fell for that "horrible Ami-Music" (they had an even more drastic word for it) mastered our life.
Now I'm happy to see my grand children growing up.

Chip, I congratulate you on following the right path, in this day and age it is very hard to do. Sounds like you have a good idea what you want out of life. Remember it is easier to talk than to walk, think and discuss your next step with someone who has been there. Allot of us here are happy to help if and when you ever need us.

So far, I think I am.

Well I'm highly motivated. Currently taking up computer graphic arts in college and about to go into my second year. Also I've been eating healthy and exercising lately and lost 25 pounds! But I hear ya many people my age are highly unmotivated to do much of anything. Whether it's drugs, laziness or a bit of both. My old high school was actually known by the police as "Heroin High" lol. But there are some of us youngins that are motivated which is good. Cause if none of use were motivated the world would fall apart as we know it as time goes on haha. Like that saying "The children are are future" or something like that. It is true because people retire and new people move on in. So if I'm the youngest....who's the oldest here. Although no one would want to admit they are the oldest probably lol

RosnSC, I bet at 57 you could still run circles around most of these young people today. I have nothing against the younger generation, it just seems like they have no motivation.

" Am I the youngest one here?"

Yes, Chip, I believe you are. Furthermore - and I can't believe I'm actually sharing this info...lol. I just did the math, and at 57 years old, I could actually be your grandmother (remember that PM where I mentioned about being old enough to be your mother?). I have a son who will be 38 in December; that's where the math came in, btw. Now, *that's* enough to make *anyone* feel old...lol. I do have 2 significantly younger sons to help keep me feeling somewhat younger, even though the youngest likes to remind me I am getting old...er. He says, sometimes, *he* feels old, and I just look at him and say **you're** old; do you realize who you are saying that to, silly!!? LOL

I am 57, but feel like 107 some of you can relate.

And I am 55..soon to be 56.
