How old is old?

I think, being old is just a state of mind. I mean, someone who is young may think he is old enough to do the things that mature people do and vice versa.

Some people are afraid of growing old. I remember seeing an elder woman at the MRT wearing all pink from head to toe with a matching Hello Kitty bag in her arm. Why would she wear something like that and go in public very much like a teen in appearance? What is the message she is trying to send? Yeah, you guessed it. She wants to stay youthful and fresh!

On the other hand, there are some people who are rushing to reach a certain age of life. Let's say for example a 16-year old who struggles with freedom, wishing she's 22, done college and all, so she can just leave home.

I turned 29 last June, but honestly, I don't always act my age. I am maybe old enough to raise a baby. Old enough to run a household. Old enough to do parenting stuff. However, I'm not too old to eat ice cream, enjoy net surfing, and try some extreme games.

To satisfy you more with my answer, here is the result of an online quiz that I took from blogthings.

You Act Like You Are 27 Years Old

You are a twenty-something at heart. You feel like an adult, and you're optimistic about life. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. You're still figuring out your place in the world and how you want your life to shape up. The world is full of possibilities, and you can't wait to explore many of them.

Ha. The test says that I'm acting like 27. Not far from my real age huh :)
