I'll be 15 in 18 days... March 26th... !

Though, if I do say so myself, I look older.. Or atleast the guy who hit on me (and was 22) at a wedding thought I did! (looooong story!)

My obedience trainer also asked me how much longer I had left of University... I was like "erm.... I'm still in highschool!" :p

I didn't realize there were so many chazzers in the 20-30 group! Sheesh..
What a bunch of young-ins! :p

Just about 2 more months until my 18th birthday. Though, I look much younger. A year ago I got hit on by a 13 year old while at a church... and recently told that I looked like a 7th grader. I guess I might appreciate looking so much younger when I'm older. For now, it can be annoying. People don't like to take someone that looks like a 14 year old too seriously in dog training. :p

That's the one problem I have with it, people not taking you seriously. I don't really mind looking younger.. I wouldn't even really mind people thinking I was younger if I wasn't a professional. I think sometimes people have trouble trusting me to do my job because they think I'm not old enough to do it right or something.

I'm old enough to be a junior in college. :D

Oooh I HATE when that happens.. I would be so mad. Like when you go to a restaurant and they ask if you want a children's menu? That hasn't happened in a while at least.
That used to happen to me all the time. By the time I graduated high school I finally stopped getting asked if I'd like a children's menu.

I... think I'm 22. Yesss.... yes, definitely, I'm 22! I'll be 23 in about 2 months or so (May 23).

Yeah, it's crazy - I actually forget my age from time to time.... it doesn't really matter to me in my everyday life, and obviously I only think about my age about once a year (when it changes) soooo... yeah. I'm 22. That's what the math says, at any rate. :)
Wow, you sound like me. I hate being asked my age. I always have to stop and think about it before answering. I remember the birth date, just forget the age part sometimes.

I was 12 and 13 running with the big boys at field trials. I dont' think it matters a hoot as long as your not running your mouth about what you know. I have seen alot of newbies cause rolled eyes by the seniors. Maybe where you handle is different. I always kept a low profile and worked the dogs to my best ability. I was given a lot of encouragement and tips. No one ever gave me grief about my age. I certainly felt my age enough times when i made errors which was subject for a lot of teasing at times.
