I'm very lucky to have grown up in a neighborhood with a ton of guys around my age. There are 10 of us from the ages of 29-35. I've known all these guys for 20+ years and consider them my brothers. A few of them moved away so I unfortunately don't see them often but we still talk regularly. The rest of us just had kids or have had their second kid and we all have careers. We get together maybe once a month when time permits sometimes it's a bit longer but we try and make a point to get together with the whole family as our kids are all months to a year apart in age. We all talk a fair amount in group chats and also play games together when we can. It's not like when we were in our 20s that's for sure. A few of us rented a house and we were always together having a good time. Growing up is weird. We are all very different people now with our own lives and problems but any of us would drop everything for one another if someone was in need. I love them all dearly. It's super cool that our kids will get to grow up with one another and hopefully be as good of friends with each other as we are. I consider myself so lucky to have so many friends I consider family. A lot of people don't have one best friend. I was blessed with 9.

I've been using Motorola phones for about 5 years now. I don't want to fork out the ridiculous amount of money for the flagship phones, nor do I want to lose my "bring your own phone" plan price. They have an assortment of phones in different budget ranges and I love some of the features they come with, specifically the karate chop flashlight feature. Haven't been let down yet. I will say I use my phone mainly as a texting/calling and browsing device so I can't comment on how they do in games, as I never play games.

I loved my psp. It's kicking in a box somewhere in the house. I have fond memories of ad-hoc'ing Untold Legends with my friends in my buddies garage. Good times! Also as a young teen, having an internet browser at my fingertips for porn was a game changer 🤣

I'd say go for it! Going back to school was the best decision I've made in a long time. The only thing holding you back is yourself! Hindsight I wish I did it years ago but that doesn't matter now, I did it. Do it for yourself if its what you truly want to do. Time keeps on moving, there is no point in putting it off. I did that for years, oh maybe next year... Well this is going on maybe next year.. go for it now! I believe!

Little over a quarter life crisis. My job was slowly killing me. It was destroying my mental health, I knew I needed to do something about it. I was always on the mindset of "I'm to old to go back to school". Having gone to post secondary in my late teens and early 20s but promptly dropping out. Decided I needed to go back to school. Went back for engineering. Passed with honors and now I have a child. Life is far better than it was, it has its new up and downs but I'm much happier!
