21

21 is supposed to be a significant age & all, apart from now trying to behave like an adult, what would be considered important things to have done/be doing at this age?

For me, at the moment all I can think of is no more excuses to act like a child considering you have now passed 16, then 18 & now 21.

Ideas please :slight_smile:

Re: 21

Re: 21

21 is a significant age only for the people who are not 21 yet.

Re: 21

I don’t think there’s any significance to it, in US its considered the legal drinking age and thus a big milestone…I don’t think it matters much.

Now..30? :naak::teary2::crying:

Re: 21

age is just a number. whatever ur number be u always look back and wish u were that age again. one must enjoy whatever age they are at.

Re: 21

Do you know Starberry that if you were living on Jupiter, you were only 20 months old ..

Re: 21

usually 21 is the age when u start higher education.

i think at this age you should start thinking about finances as to what job opportunities are there and how much u can earn and give your family a comfortable life specially your parents since they have done so much for you financially (and by all means)

welcome to gs and happy birthday in advance

Re: 21

:) You guys are funny. It is quite daunting, although it is true that you always want to be a different age. I remember being 14/15 and wanting school to hurry up!

So there isn't anything to have been done by now?

Hmmm, maybe I should move to Jupiter.

Re: 21

That sounds good, thank you

Re: 21

u welcome :)

Re: 21

i'll actually be FINISHED with my "higher education" when im 22 (i'll be going to "graduate" school then, its kinda diff here and in america compared to pakistan) :/ most people start their uni at 18 yar... even in pakistan :P

thanks <3

Re: 21

oh by higher education i meant universities/degrees. u must be in your a levels...right?

u welcome :)

Re: 21

I wanna move to Jupiter.

Re: 21

nope, we dont have A-levels in ireland :O (just the local board exams :P) im in 3rd year mechanical engineering, but im gonna be doing medicine afterwards (applying this year, will start after graduation next year inshallah :P)

Re: 21

oh mashallah mashallah very nice. inshallah u will succeed. ameen

as far as i know and according to uk. u finish gcse by the age of 16, then u finish a-levels by the age 18 and then by 19/20 u start uni....well depends on person to person but generally its like that. so when i said 21 is the age when u start uni its not entirely correct.

Re: 21

eligible entry age on Jupiter is a solid 100. for women its equivalent to 150 years ;)

Re: 21

depends, usually people finish A-levels at 18 around may/june and then they start uni in around sept thats how it works in UK im pretty sure, but i live in ireland and thats how it is over here though, u finish ur boards in june, and u start 1st year of uni in sept :P

unlike in pakistan where u do ur inter in like april i think? and then start uni the following january lol

Re: 21

yup correct.

oh i dont know about pak
