When I first started reading this thread, I actually felt quite young at the blissful age of 23. Then I started seeing the 19s and 15s, and felt old again ;P

really? weird...

i can see 30 (though that was relatively easy actually).
27 was hard. i think the hardest so far actually. though i was keenly aware of my depression at that time and of the fact that a lot of artists (music mainly) have taken themselves out at 27. plus the fact that you're no longer in your "mid-20s", it was just kind of draining. i think 40 is probably going to be hard. though i thought that about 30 and i was wrong ;P

I honestly did not expect to live past 27. Well, actually.. I wasn't sure I'd make it past 21..

30 wasn't so bad.

27 was the worst for me too, i was very frustrated, a bad job, etc, etc. Things are better now i although i feel older than i am, i don't care anymore. Maybe i will care again when i reach 40, maybe.
