i mean im 28 now and not going out every night like i once did, but still doin it up on weekends and such.

i have friends in my age groups who have already resigned themselves to going to be 'at a decent hour' every night of the week.

then i have other friends 10 or so years older than me who are still doin it up like they are 22.

when will you grow up?

4/6/2006 12:04:45 PM

Probably after law school.. I'm pretty sure those 65-70 hour weeks my first year in a firm are going to shut me down on the weekends.. but maybe not.

4/6/2006 12:08:00 PM

I'm 24, and I'm already headed way too far down that path.

4/6/2006 1:08:15 PM

i'm on my way - but definitely not there yet - i'd guess 30ish or marriage

4/6/2006 1:33:35 PM

are you on the rag?

4/6/2006 2:13:26 PM

when i have my first kid

4/6/2006 2:35:38 PM

I have faith I'll reach adolescence any day now.

4/6/2006 3:44:08 PM

growing up sucks.....i cant help it because im on my own and still in school.....but i will always be young at heart

4/6/2006 3:49:35 PM

i hope i'm not exclusive either one during a 24-hour period

4/6/2006 4:04:57 PM

haha i guess i am already there by your standards. i guess it is that whole job thing and getting up every day of my life at 5:30 thing.

4/6/2006 4:12:48 PM

how is it that we equate adulthood with lack of partying time?


Just because you don't party every weekend anymore doesn't mean you've matured.

4/6/2006 4:18:32 PM

true

4/6/2006 4:53:28 PM

PROBABLY NEVER...I ALREADY HAVE A KID...I WILL HAVE MY FIRST HOUSE IN 2 WEEKS....I DON'T PLAN ON GROWING UP ANYTIME SOON.....

4/6/2006 5:59:35 PM

right before the high school reunion.

4/6/2006 6:23:00 PM

after I build a damn car. I'll lower my standards a lot, get it out of my system, start making a steady wage, get past debt, buy a minivan, have kids somewhere in there, and before you know it, I'll be shuffling investments and watching the news like its entertainment.

4/7/2006 1:43:26 AM

I think I'm 24 going on 13... I figure once I graduate, in 2047, I'll be in decent shape to give in to growing up & being old. Till then, it's 4AM video game binges & hugging the toilet thrice a week!
But seriously I don't know. Life's tough enough without worrying about crap like war, the economy, taxes, and social security biting the dust.

this year

I was grown up for the most part until I was 24 and a half.
Then I partied like a rockstar for about six months.
Then I got engaged, got married, and I'm content, in that warm happy fuzzy way.

4/8/2006 4:13:20 AM

I'd say about 22-23. It was a combination of factors, actually.

Christ, I'm already at the point where I'm writing my memoirs. Been an interesting life

4/8/2006 12:48:06 PM

I don't party very much any more, I only get 4 days off a month.

But I'm still at the maturity level of a 14 year old and holding steady.

"this year"

2nd semester, first year in grad school.

teaching a class, reading several hundred pages/week, grading papers on the weekend.

oh yeah, and a steady girlfriend . . . that helps.

4/8/2006 10:11:43 PM

eh, growing up is a state of mind...
you can be successful, productuve whatever and still do things at night/weekends...

I plan on growing up sometime during flight school... probably next week!

4/9/2006 11:26:37 PM

fully grow up? never really.. if I ever get out of the mindset that I am young enough to have fun when I want to.. then I am probably not going to enjoy the rest of my life

i'm 27... i played beer pong this past weekend and im usually not in bed before midnight

4/18/2006 5:01:20 PM

never

4/18/2006 5:08:08 PM

Maturity and being a square are too intermingled these days.

4/18/2006 5:15:15 PM

i seriously cannot see myself being a responsible adult...

maybe after a kid i guess.


My gf works a 8-5 and is in bed by 11 every night, where I head to bed around 4am or so, drives me crazy.

4/19/2006 4:06:42 AM

when acting like a kid is no longer fun i guess

4/19/2006 1:49:37 PM

since i started working for the feds, about a year and a half ago....26ish

4/19/2006 3:02:41 PM

21-22

why?

5/6/2006 9:43:44 AM

I became an old man after new years eve this year.

5/6/2006 11:46:04 AM

25 was it for me. in fact july of 25. 2 months and i will have my 1 yr grown up aniv! sucks ass, i miss the old days. i guess all good things come to an end

5/8/2006 6:58:14 PM

I have no idea. I still love going out till 4am (on weekends) and doing stupid crazy stuff. I don't know when this will end, maybe it will take a girlfriend I really care about to tame me, and who knows when I find that
