    If you actually thought you were getting old as in geriatric, it would be, but I presume you're just freaked about growing up, which is understandable.

    However, you were born in 1989/90 - I probably own stuff that's older than you... :(

    20 seems like a grown-up age when you're at that age yourself, but it really, really isn't. You're a child!

    Maybe it's the looming sense of responsibility? And the fact that my teens weren't as epic as I thought they would be. 17 was probably the best year of my life so far but it's been a steady decline since then haha :P

    Also, I'm becoming far more aware of the fact that there is just not enough time in the day to do everything I'd like to. Sounds ridiculous but it's how I feel! :)

    I'm not sure what happened. Normally on a day like today I'd be sitting in the sun all day having the craic with mates. Instead I went on a 4 hour bike ride, called my parents, and am cutting up veg for dinner. I don't even have the desire for a pint.

    How do I fix this? I was planning on continuing to act like I'm 25 until I hit full-on creepy old guy territory. I've got at least another 10 years of faking it to go!

    quick eat this box of sleeping pills they'll stop you aging one more day

    Life is all about health.

    Many seriously ill people in their 20's would gladly take being 40 and healthy over their current hell.

    I don't like to bring Springsteen into everything (I do really :p) but, look at the guy - 60 and still rocking it.

    it's all about how you feel
    in my teens l wanted to be taken seriously
    in my 20's l wanted a career and felt to staid for festivals though l worked at glastonbury for years.
    in my 30's with kids everything was immature
    however now l see retired 60+ women going to gaga gigs and l cringe but it proves the point get out there and enjoy it while yer young enuff.

    at christmas nearly bought some tartan doc's but a voice inside said yer too old for them feckers , people will laff (get a pair o slippers)

    The other day I rearranged the sofa, tv and coffee table in my living room and it brough me no end of joy, so much so I was in bed that night looking forward to getting up the next morning and looking at what I had done....then it hit me that I was getting old!

    Pighead is pretty infallible and tends to win most battles he takes part in but even he has had to surrender to the monster that is the ageing process.

    Last week was when it finally happened. Coolness had left the building and was swiftly replaced by safeness.

    Was at a 30th birthday party wearing comfortable grey slack type trousers talking to a sensible well dressed chap about how scandalously underrated One Republic were. Somewhere far far away in a different galaxy from yesteryear, a 17 year old Pighead pointed and laughed at the two painfully unhip squares chatting by the bar.
