Is it normal that someone forgets/mistakes their own age?

[edit: don't want to start another entry... can someone really tell me if the theory that left-handed people have statistically shorter lives (and more prone to heart problems) is true or not?]

Last night when I was in bed, thinking about random things and waiting for sleep to come... I thought of something.

I'm not 21.

I'm 22!!!!!!!

o_o I completely forgot I'm 22. I can't believe it. I remember my birthday, I remember eating 2 b-day dinners in February, but I still kept thinking I'm 21 years old!!! Is it because my inner-child is still a teenager?!

I can't believe I'm 22 already. And I've got friends who are barely 15/16. *L* Goes to show I'm a teenager too, really.

Hungry. Lunch!

I guess this is the good time to introduce myself. I hope you don't you mind me adding to my friendlist? For being looking like 16 year old, being 19 is old for myself... Everyone is a child once in their life time and still is - it's a good thing? It doesn't matter how long your life is as long as you enjoy it! Your fanfics are awesome, please do continue them!

i won't worry about statistics, i am studying alot of it, there is always bias in teh problems, as it is famously quoted, fundamentally there are 3 kinds of lies in the world
lies, damn lies, and statistics (forgot who it was who quoted this)

Try this: go to Ask Jeeves (ask.com) and type in "Statistics on left-handers shorter life" and then have fun following the links!

And don't worry... Sometimes I have to check what YEAR we are to be sure of my age... of course I'm nearly TWICE yours ^_^

1 in 6 statistics are not true - or so they say. XD Though as to whether left handed peeps are more likely to have shorter lives and such, I have no idea... ^^;

Hehe, forgetting your age isn't that bad... I had to stop and think myself during my French aural when I was asked what age I was... had to stop myself from saying I was 15. ^^; Lol.

Heh, I began to get a bit fuzzy about my age as soon as I'd reached the legal age for everything. After that, it just didn't matter any more, not really...
