Thought of a new topic that many of us can relate to...

The older I get...


I'll kick it off with the first answer:

"... the longer it takes to recover from a hangover." :ill: :hehe:



Cheers, :drink:

The more I forget! My memory is terrible. You have no idea how many times I walk into my office from a classroom and forget why I went there in the first place. So frustrating!

My students are starting to pick up on it. NOT good, since I usually forget the due dates I apply. :ashamed:

... the more I figure out that there's an innate goodness in people. And if ever they do something bad to you, something bad happened to them too. It's the universal cause and effect theory.

The more paranoid I have become, due to learning that just because youre paranoid doesnt mean that they arent out to get you.

Thanx for another fun topic, PCM!! :applaud:

(my 10 answers... haha)
The more I realize that.......

1) it gets harder to achieve gains in training
2) i don't handle my alcohol as well as i used to
3) i realize that my ass has started to 'drop'
4) my hair doesn't grow out as fast
5) i feel as though the days fly by
6) i find myself constantly working
7) i'm married
8) my marriage is headed for turmoil
9) i don't care that my marriage is headed in that direction
10) i am a sexy bitch and the number of 'girlfriends' i have proves it.

all aside from point number 10, i'd say that i'm having a mid life crisis. which means i'll probably die at 50. :beaten: :hehe:

Also studying becomes harder. Started (self)learning Japanese half a year ago and I'm still on lesson 4 out of 15 :ashamed:.

I have the same problem - things take longer to stick in my mind. What course are you doing?

On topic: The older I get, the harder it is to get up in the morning.
