in 2003 my mother was sent to work in a small island in the aegean sea (she is a teacher), and took me and my sister with her and I had a great experience living in a small island community. Sadly I was too young and can't remember a lot of stuff :P

in 2003 I was learning basic mathematics, shapes, how to read; and playing games on the playground involving boys running away from girls who were trying to kiss them. We let ourselves get caught and pretended we didn't like it. Ironically in 2003 7 year old me was hanging with girls more often then I do today. Oh how the times change.

Yes that's about the time that starts I've found. The cut-off where you no longer enjoy getting older.
In 2003 I was in my first year of high school and playing a shit ton of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medieval:_Total_War
13 years ahead is a bit far. I suppose ideally I would have a job that pays enough for me to stop working before 2040. And a family. And I hope the world will have learned that what we are currently doing about global warming isn't nearly enough.

Aging isn't so bad unless it takes your mind - that's what I fear. Bodies can break down but a mind can still grow - until it doesn't!

Well, keeping with the theme, in 2003 I was in 3rd grade where we learned how to write cursive and multiply and I had a crush on a blonde girl named Carly whose wedding I was recently invited to but didn't attend. I remember the day her husband moved into town and all the girls wrote his name on the whiteboard during recess in shitty cursive. In 2030 it'd be nice to have just one thing I've written published; something small and inconsequential but not worthless. Even better would be two things.

Nah it's not meant to be sad - it's not like I've been in love with this girl since 2nd grade. I moved away shortly after that and randomly reconnected with her over a decade later at a dormitory sand volleyball game. It's just weird how small Nebraska can be.

Crushes in primary school are so innocent. I always plan to tell the girls I liked then about it should we meet again. Good ice breaker :P Did you?

Im pretty sure in 2003 I started playing aoe2 as an 8 year old kid. Saw a classmate play it and fell in love with the game. So I guess it'd be reasonable to hope I'll be playing the new aoe game in 2030. Realistically though, I hope to be married, have a stable job, decent house, and one or two kids by then, and to still be in touch with many friends that I have right now.
