    Wow. I feel old every day.

    I think in part because I feel like I wasted a lot of years before starting this career. Like if I want a mulligan or something.

    On the other hand, I did get a lot of "experiences" before settling down, but either way, yes - I do feel very old for 24.

        How do you waste "a lot of years" and be 24!?

            Oh, man, way to make it personal. I'm suffering from the same injury in my right knee. What the heck with being 27 and now needing to ice your knees after a 3 mile run?

            I play baseball and pitch. I think I'm gonna cry the day I can't throw anymore. I might just then have a real mid-life crisis. When I can no longer compete, what will I do?

                Probably depends on the career. I feel like I wasted a lot of time with film and I'm only 27. Being 27 and wanting to write isn't really that old. You can be any age and write.

                But, I wish I had known I wanted to write for film when I was 18 and getting out of high school. I wouldn't have spent four years in college studying for a degree I don't plan on ever using again, two years working with that degree, and then starting to go for my dream at the age of 25.

                Everything I worked for over the past two years could have been accomplished when I was too young for it to matter. Now 30 is closer and I'm still working at it. I could have been 22 and doing what I'm doing now at 27.
