    Default HELP! I'm a Young Twentysomething now.

    Had my birthday yesterday, and I'm 20 now. It made me think of the years of unemployment and life wasting years spent in a cheap flat somewhere in the UK.

    I'd like to go abroad after i finish uni, but I have no clue how to go about it. Anyone here moved abroad or just travelled the world before settling down?

    I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
    Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion,
    I watched seabeams glittering at Tanhauser Gate.
    All these moments will be lost, like tears in rain.
    Time to die.

    Yeah, I'm from the United States. I just turned 20 last month. I've wasted years being unemployed all this time, and I'm an Uni student. And I'm clueless on where I want to go in life.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    You're lucky - I'm 21.

    Just remember: life begins at 40 (which of course is total rubbish).
    "As the days go by, we face the increasing inevitability that we are alone in a godless,
    uninhabited, hostile and meaningless universe. Still, you've got to laugh, haven't you?"

    I don't want to be 20, ever. The idea of becoming a responsible adult rather than an irresponsible teenager scares me.

    It's even scarier when it actually happens.

    I can imagine. So do you feel responsible and stuff now or are you forevr going to be young and care free?

    Default Oh you younguns.

    Oh, you young pups! All this, "Gad! I just turned 20 stuff!" Makes all us 25 year olds feel like we should just give up! Wait until you realize you've wasted the first five years of your twenties.

    *Sigh* - It's all downhill from here.
    Banned... *Hangs head in shame.* That will teach me to step up on my soapbox.

    That's a bit of a bummer...I'm not rich and I'm too lazy to get a job.
    Oh well, if anyone is looking for a poor (but intelligent) layabout, I'll be waiting for ya.

    I'm 20 and a half, and about to graduate from a prestigious UK university. The degree probably won't help me get a job, though. Probably just another degree...
