Have you ever wished you were older than you were?

I still wish i was 18 I ams 17 now but i still want to be 18. Mainly so i can get served. To be honest i never ever want to go back to childhood, i hated it and would hate to go back there.

I can't exactly remember what I wished for when I was 13. But as a teenager in general, I've made quite a number of wishes too, some are like the ones in the movie. I've wished of becoming a famous model: tall, skinny, smart and fashionable. When I see models on magazines and billboards or on fashion shows, they look perfect. They stand tall, not minding what everybody else is thinking about them. They seem to enjoy every moment of their career. Every little girl, I guess wished of becoming someone admired by many, someone that looks really pretty. I've also wished of becoming an office girl. I've seen ladies wearing corporate attire to work. They look smart enough with what they're wearing. Some of them wears a nicely-scented perfume, carries a nicely-made bags, and fetches a wallet stuffed with neatly-folded bills. I thought that when you work in an office, you get to buy expensive stuff. I'm in my late twenties now, and looking back, if ever I've become even one of what I wished for, I may not be happy, because really, you can't pretend you are somebody you are not. I believe that what I am right now, is really what I'm supposed to be... and I'm happy.

no, but now i wish i was younger lol... but i am sure that is a common wish...my daughter is 14 wishing she was 17 lol...they sometimes act that and then she sometimes acts like she is 8...ah the joys of those teenage years!! lol

When I was 13 I wanted to be 18, so when I'd be asked for ID I could actually still continue, but luckily they never asked for ID's that much back then rather than now.

I do not remember exactly what I wished for when I was younger. But one thing that I do remember is that I wanted to finish school right away so that I can work and help my parents in the finances at home.

the idea of skipping a single moment in my life never came into my mind. i want to cherish every moment of it from the moment i came on this earth until my last days. i want to enjoy and experience every part of it whether it is a positive or a negative thing. every experience is every part of you as a human. i dont wanna regret anything that will happen to me so as much as possible, love and cherish what you have because in reality, you can never rewind the happenings that you wanted to change--just like what happend in the movie.

There were a couple of times that I wanted to be older and that was when I was not old enough to drive. I wanted to turn 16 so I could drive and get my own car and go out and do things. When I was able to drive, I wanted to be 21 so I could go to bars and clubs and have drinks. After that, I never wanted to be older than I currently was or am. :-) I do not want to get older. LOL I prefer staying young.

When I was under 18 I always wanted to be older. After I hit twenty I realized that age is just a number. This number called age doesn't have to stop you from doing anything. I am proud to be 42 and in a few months 43. I do not want to ahead in time or back in time. I am who I am because of what I have done to this point and what I continue to do will make me stronger.
