I turn 21 in december... but truth is, I keep forgetting my own age. Actually, I'd rather not remember my age, because I always feel old.
I used to always be the youngest in all my classes at school, then at university, because I skipped a year at kindergarten (my mother taught me to read very early). Then I spent a whole year trying to change campus (yay for college bureaucracy), and when I finally managed it, I found out I wasn't the youngest anymore. I have classmates who are 19. It made me feel ashamed for some reason.
Anyway, sometimes I have to do some math to remember my own age. I love getting presents on my birthday, but the "wow, you're an adult now!" drivel is something I could live without.
And I hate alcohol. Can't swallow beer, hate the aftertaste of wine. I've yet to find any alcoholic beverage that appeals to me, which may be a good thing - I'll never have to deal with hangovers.
