I´m 27, but only 37,5 days and then I´m 28.

It´s not bad. The thirties are like the 20s just you have more money.

Yeah I don't mind the mid-twenties so far. People take you more seriously, and also having a job and being done with school is nice. :3

jumping back on the subject of this thread ~

Some reasons to love YWS:

> it's like a giant scrapbook of many writer's lives and writing highlights, I love seeing other folks succeeding in their writing adventures, and I think it's neat that a few folks have things published too. :)

> it's also nostalgic and familiar but also always fresh with new folks - so the best of both worlds.

> NaPo is a reason in itself. :] I think YWS now runs one of the best community NaPo experiences on the internet. I've looked at a few other poetry sites and really haven't been too impressed by what they do for NaPo in terms of feedback or community and I think what YWS does is pretty special.

> Also all the random jokes around YWS lol it's really fun to have so many long-running jokes and lore and all of that.

There are a lot of reasons to love YWS.

I agree on all of that! I really like the friendly rivalries we can have without anyone actually getting upset haha like all the #classified/#unclassified, #goos/#antigoos, #pinkroyalty, SPEW (I still have exactly 0 idea what this is), the leaderboard competitions this month haha and like review challenges and stuff. It's nice to have friendly competition to spur you forward, but also know that everyone is actually rooting for you at the end of the day and is thrilled with your progress, even if you "beat" them.

What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.
