Yeah it's true. It's not so much that 20-something is OLD, it's just, being at the point when I've first been living in my own place for the past year, settled in a full time job, thinking about getting a pension.. XD

And as I say it seems to be the age when a lot of people around me and getting married and that kind of grown-up stuff that I can't even IMAGINE doing for a looong time. It's like the time when you finally start being independent and feel like 'hey..I'm growing up..make it stop!' for me anyway.
Yeah, it's almost as if you're saying goodbye to a certain part of your life. But I think it also depends on how fast you had to grow up as well.

And yeah, getting your first apartment is a pretty big step so I can see how it'd make you look back to the days when you had to share a cramped room with three siblings or something like that. As far as marriage, heh, I'd never get married, it's not in me. That and the fact that unicorns cannot mate with humans. And that I look about as sexy as a burn victim.
