What a long, strange trip it's been

Cataclysm is literally around the corner as I write this, about 18 more hours until launch. Now, whilst I admit I'm totally excited for that, it also makes me think. It's been 6 years since WoW came out. I know it's not THAT long, but I've done quite some things in my life during that time. Hell, I even moved countries twice during it all.

But really, sometimes I do feel old when I think in terms like that. Did you know Friends ended 6 years ago, as well? Or that Pokémon has been running for 12 years now? Things like that make me feel old, because it's so long ago that those shows, or things were part of my life. Time flies without you knowing, it really does. I mean, I'm about to hit 21, even though I often still feel like 16. It's easy to just shove responability aside and just have fun, but it's not so fun when it hits you like a brick wall when you think about it.

What have you done in the last 6 years? As for me? Well, I did some life-changing things in my life, at the time. But not something that's set my future in stone. Nothing really memorable, noteworthy or grand to set me apart from my peers. And the scary thing about it all? The trip isn't over yet.
