What are your opinions on age?

I'm genuinely at a point in my life where I just...don't know? I'm 31 and I'm not sure if I feel the way a 31-year-old is supposed to. I still feel like a teenager in many ways, but also not? Like, I've definitely matured a lot since I was a teenager, but I also still don't really feel like an adult, either? It's like I'm too old to be a teenager but too young to be an adult. 31 really isn't "old" but I am constantly reminded of how long ago so many milestones were for me - I started high school in 2006, 17 years ago?? And I started college in 2010, 13 years ago?? WHAT IS TIME. And then because I've been here so long and so many of the newer members are so much younger it makes me feel ancient, even though I'm not?? idk man lol. Aging is weird.

I can relate to this. At 20, I don't really "feel" like an adult, but I also don't really "feel" like a kid, either. 18-20 is kind of a weird age to be imo because you're old enough to vote and join the military, but you're too young to drink alcohol and gamble in a casino. I first started going to elementary, middle, and high school in the years 2008, 2014, and 2017, respectively (which wasn't really too long ago). It's crazy to think how many years have passed since "xyz milestones" happened in my life.
