Feel Young Again

December 4th, 2007

Some of you may know that just like every other “young” person, I have a morbid fear of ageing. More accurately, I have a morbid fear of reaching certain milestone ages (such as 25) and realising that instead of the career job, country house, wife, dog and Volvo that I thought I’d have at this age, I find myself employed as a by-the-hour data monkey, sharing a small flat with no lady, labrodor or locomotion in sight. Thanks heavens then, for the following site: “Things Other People Accomplished When They Were Your Age“. All I have to do is set it one year ahead of me, and relax in the knowledge that:

Albert Einstein published five major research papers in a German physics jornal, fundamentally changing man’s view of the universe and leading to such inventions as television and the atomic bomb.

Then I think to myself, “You see, Einstein hadn’t amounted to much at this age. I still have time.”

Yes, I still have time…
