LOL :D

Ummmm.......thanks? *raises eyebrow*

Not sure if this is a good thing or not. Like how I was student teaching in a high school and one of the secretaries thought I was a student. The high school was new and only had FRESHMEN AND SOPHOMORES in it!!! So I was a full TEN YEARS OLDER than she thought I was. Argh, madness.

EDIT: For those of you who don't know what I look like, I do NOT think I look 14 or even remotely CLOSE to being that young, but...other people apparently think so.

Honestly, very early on, I thought Zaia was in HS.

So her comment about nipple tassels kinda threw me off until I learned that she was really 24. :roll:

She does have a very youthful energy. :mrgreen:

As I said one just goes by the 21st year and just add years...though saying one in their 28th 21st year is odd :wink:

Still so your only in the twenties...that's plenty young...you are easily of age to be a beatiful and mature...feel good about it(I on the other hand and feeling old more because I'm nearing 30 and my greatest accomplishment is getting a Master's degree...I dunno sorta underwhelming for me)

Heh, my older sister is 25 (26 on the 22nd), and is in the Iowa Law School. For years people have mistaken her for being much younger: usually about 16-18, but sometimes even as young as 14, I think.

I guess because I work with high school students that I don't really take this in a complimentary light. I think I use my words more carefully and argue more intelligently than most high school kids.
So her comment about nipple tassels kinda threw me off until I learned that she was really 24. :roll:
Nipple tassels? Moi? Whatever do you mean, Spank? *chuckle*

Now that I can take as a compliment. Thank you.

Wow...14?!

The 18 I can grasp because some people don't realize that the face does give some idea of age persay(I mean yeah I've seen women who couldn't possibly be 45 but were...but their eyes said much more than their body)

Does she have a young face or is it how she acts persay?

She does look very young, yes. And she also has very dark brown hair (which looks almost black in the Winter, and a bit golden in the Summer) that goes down to about the middle of her back. I'd say that her hair does make her look a lot younger, and lets people assume such. When she wears it up, like in a bun or such, she looks a bit older.

I know that a lot of women cut their hair when they get older (my mom had long hair until the late 80s), but she doesn't ever plan to.

I thought it would be interesting to see what the age make-up of this board is. Or rather, the ones that vote in polls like this...

Replies aren't expected; actual ages are a need-to-know item on the 'net, but the vote tally will be interesting.
