Chikat! Mine is the 15th - I hadn't realized that our birthdays were so close.
(I'm the oldest in the family and the only one to major in art.)
Or oldest. I missed the cut off, so I was always one of the oldest in my class.
I was the youngest. I didn't turn 18 until 7 months after I graduated from High School.
Me too, quester. Except 6 months. That was the worst, being in college and not even able to get into places that were 18+!
That's what I meant. I thought that the cutoff for starting school was still December for most people in their 30s. I don't quite know when they changed that.
It's always varied by place, as far as I know. I have a friend who started young in her class with a February birthday, but got kept back when she switched to private school, because they thought she was too young.
And I have another friend who was my year in college, but almost exactly a year older than me, because where she was, the cutoff was September.
The cutoff here is still Dec. 1. So Sara is still four until her birthday on Nov. 29, but she's in kindergarten. Which seems weird to me.
I started kindergarten at 4.
Me, and my next younger sister (11 months younger, Irish twin) were both 4 as well.
I started kindergarten at 4.
Me too. And then started college at 17. My birthday's in October. I think when I started, my school's cutoff was the end of December.
I started kindergarten at 4 and college at 17. I went to Catholic school and they didn't have a cutoff. Go, Pope!
I loved Christian on Bravo's PR marathon today. They had a commercial reminding folks that we were going to be able to vote for the fan favorite this season and I realized that I totally didn't have a fan favorite this season. Stella in a pinch, but that's totally by default. That makes me sad.
