How Old Will You Be In 5 Years?

Question

If you're comfortable, add 5 years to your age. How old are you going to be? Do you have any goals for what you would like to accomplish in that time?

Comments

It's pretty funny that someone flagged this, especially since I said "If you're comfortable" right at the start of the post.

Nobody is forced to answer, so only do so if you are comfortable of course!

---

Whoever keeps flagging posts that don’t have a good reason to be flagged should stop.

---

Ya like what the heck?

Answer 1

I'll be around 17-18 years old. Feels incredibly weird to think about.

I hope that by then all my friends and family will accept me. I hope that ill be able to be called by my preferred name instead of my deadname. I hope that im still a fan of DSMP and that I still love cosplaying. I want to have a song published by then, and I want to learn guitar by then as well.

Most of that will never happen, but its always fun to fantasize.

I think you misspelled "all of those things will happen and more".

Answer 2

20

Complete college

Comments

That would be a very quick college run as most people graduate at 23 lol

---

23? I thought people stayed for longer…

---

Well, you can stay much longer for graduate school or a specialized school.

---

I know someone who graduated college at 40.

---

never mind i won't get done college until three years after that. I'm so silly

---

There's a 12 year old from the Bay area that just graduated with multiple degrees.

---

Wow that’s extreme. Imagine my classmates when they hear about this.

Answer 3

I will be 16 and like Minecrafnerdjunior want to be and author and have successfully publish(self publish or publisher) the book I’m writing and it’s sequel. I also hope to have  a BFF that won’t leave me or betray me. I also hope to be doing well in  high school. Last but not least I hope I’m out of the closet by then

Answer 4

i will be 15 in 5 years. In that time, i would like to join a dance team, join a theatre program, and come out about my luv for singing.

Answer 5

17 years old, and when I turn 13 in the next like 6 months, 18. Boy, I don’t know if I’m ready for that. 

ALL I KNOW IS MY PLAN FOR FUTURE IS COLLEGE CAUSE IMMA NEED A DECENT JOB 

Comments

Same. You need college education to become a computer programmer.

---

College might be fun. You meet friends with the same dream as you depending on what kind of college you go to, and you get to share dorms! And have mini adventures! And have fun! And adventures! And fun!

And adven—

---

And you get to be in debt for the next who-knows-how-many years!

---

O yeah

Forgot about that

Wasn't Biden supposed to make it so that colleges didn't cost money or something? Isn't that part of the reason why he even ran?

I'm confused by politics. It makes me angry and/or gives me a headache.

---

Politicians always say they're gonna do stuff to get people excited. They also said they were gonna cut federal worker's pay and it never happened. I honestly don't know what a president does for four years....I swear they just eat Cheetos and play pool and argue about daylight savings and public bathrooms all day.

And suspicious balloons that float in the sky

Not the fact that it's a miracle that anything can survive in the atmosphere with all this pollution and global warming going on.

---

They interviewed the Chinese balloon on SNL after it happened and he told them that he was flying over Montana because he liked Yellowstone. Again, this show is the first time anyone paid attention to Montana.

Now they just need a show about a cult of corn farmers in Iowa...

---

I read that wrong the first few times.

I now know that a show interviewed an actual balloon

And that it liked Yellowstone

Which lies in Montana

And never thought to go to Ohio

Because that is the one place people always want to talk about

And that I added that last part x3

---

Here's a screenshot from the interview:

---

Yep.

I have now seen it all.

*walks out the door*

Answer 6

I will be 16 and  3 months at this time. I plan to be already an author who has sold some poems and novels.

Answer 7

I will be 16 years and 3 months old in 5 years.

Answer 8

16 years old in 5 years. But I'm almost 12 so then it will be 17

Answer 9

I’ll be a newly-turned 16. In the meanwhile, I would like to learn how to actually code. (Pumpkin, do you have any tips because I want to be a computer programmer when I grow up)

Comments

For clarification, a newly-turned 16 is 16 years and 0 months.

---

I'm not that good at programming, the only thing you really need to make websites is a server and then you can mostly teach yourself how to do everything. You could even make an exact clone of kidztalk which isn't that hard to do.

---

Okay.

Answer 10

I'll be 23, still unsure what I'll be doing at that time.

Comments

AN EIGHTEEN YEAR OLD ON KIDZ TALK !???!???

---

Why was this flagged?

---

He visits sometimes. He's not active.

---

JD was 14 when he joined…

---

Why does that comment have 2 flags

I mean, it was a little unwarranted, but nothing inappropriate.

---

It might be a little weird if an 18 year old registered for KT, but if they've been in the community for a few years already it's completely normal. People grow up.

---

People might get the wrong idea lol.

---

Speaking of that, I'm getting close to your age, JD.

I bet nobody could tell because of how immature I act (lol). I also look and sound young, I guess it's just a fact of my life.

Still, I don't know if I should use the site anymore after I turn 18 because it just gets a little weird after that point. People will also give me the same reaction as that first comment and start flagging my posts like they did to you.

For the last few years, I've been pretty inactive except for short spurts anyways, so I suppose I could make the transition to alumni fairly easily. But I have a lot of nostalgia for this site since I've been using it for so long. KS was one of the first sites I joined and the first one I was active on.

Quite a tricky situation for us.

---

(I know this isn't my conversation to interject in but)

Yes, it must be very tricky for you KidzTalk elders x3

---

@Pumpkin isn't Gem older now? She posted in the alumni category a while ago.

---

I'm not Pumpkin, but:

she said she was 19 last time we heard from her.

---

@Pumpkin Quite a tricky situation indeed. I can relate.
