"Ten Years Ago I Was..."

[mac 2005]

I was in Australia, blissfully unaware of all the hard lessons life held in store for me.

Stuck in utah. And imprisoned in school.

Ten Years Ago I Was...

...living a bill-free, stress-free life in the 4th or 5th grade. 🙄
Ahhhhh, good times. 😛

Don't speak of such things! *gasp*

Well writen!
I'm a pretty smart guy (If I might say so myself) but I have never been able to write like this. I guess I should read more. I haven't branched out much further than the Potter series. I heard reading greatly increases vocabulary and grammar skills. *sigh*

How the hell were you 14 in the tenth grade?

I started kindergarten when I was 4. But to be fair, it's my birthday next week so I finished tenth grade 15 years old.

5 years old, probably playing some game on my old crappy compaq pc (or pulling my brother out the chair to get on it)

One thing I just remembered, when I was a kid I used to be able to "foresee" myself older. But all that stopped when I hit 14 in 2000. I just couldn't see myself as 16, 18 or so. Not in a depressed way, just I had no idea where I was going to be.
Now I'm 24 and I still can't "see" ahead 😱. Does make it a fun ride though.

ten years ago.. it was my last year of living at home with my parents. moving to the town I live finally now. failing here. moving to the big smoke and many many more times. i wonder how different I would be if I stayed in my home town. would I still be with my ex? Happily settled in that ********? No matter. Life is life, and It could be a hell of a lot worse...

Ten years ago I thought my Dad had a good idea of how the world worked

 

[c-Row]

Ten years ago I wasn't expecting life to kick me in the balls this often.

Riding my carriage in London to buy a new top hat for Queen Victoria's coronation, then off to Whitechapel for laudanum, Gin and the warmth of a bawdy bordello.

Doctor, is that you???

Man, 31st December 1999 was the night I accidentally set fire to a friend's dining room 😱

I was doing some IT migration work for London Underground, was renting a room in a shared house, and was single having dumped my previous partner of two years the month before. Seems funny now, but I wouldn't even know my current partner for another five months let alone have got it together with him (that happened about three months later still).

That was quite a major decade in the life-changing department 🙂

You don't get away with posting a comment like that without giving details! 😱

 

[abijnk]

I was 12 and in middle school.

If someone had told me how much would change in this decade I would have laughed in their face...

 

[satcomer]

I was in the US Army (already a Vet from 20 years ago) and planning my out after a training accident (just left Japan after being there 3+years).

I was in China for 3 weeks touring all over the country.
