2. Feeling philosophical today are we?
Edited on Sun Feb-08-04 02:36 PM by Droopy
Youth ends at different times for different people. When I was at college last quarter, there were people who were all about partying and there were others who were all about studying. For the studyers, youth was over I think. The partyers may well continue their youth after college, that is if they can make it through.

My youth ended when I was about 20 at the onset of a serious mental illness. No more fun and games. I dropped out of college and spent the next ten years bouncing around from job to job trying to make ends meet and deal with the world through the fog of my illness. Things got better. I got the right diagnosis (finally) at the age of 29 and got my meds sorted out by the time I was 30. Now I'm 31 and I'm back in college. Most of the people are about the same age, but there are adults and children among them.
