It’s my birthday week!! Whoo! I love celebrating my birthday! I’m often the youngest of my classmates and most of my friends, so when I celebrate, I feel like I’m “catching up.” I know that’s not true, but still, my birthday is exciting for me!

In the almost three years I have had this blog, I have written about lessons I’ve learned and things to do in the time I have been alive. Well, I don’t wanna repeat posts, so I thought of something different. I want to take today to list things that occurred the year I was born. For those of you older than me, this might make you feel old (and I’ll apologize now), but I thought this would be pretty cool! Without further ado, I’m as old as…

• The Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky scandal
• NASA announcing that the moon has enough water for colony from the Clementine
• Titanic winning 11 Oscars
• Animal Kingdom at Walt Disney World
• Michael Jordan’s last game as a Chicago Bull
• Japan’s space program (probe launched to Mars)
• Saving Private Ryan
• Google!
• American Airlines offering electronic tickets
• The Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas
• John Glenn becoming the oldest person to go into space at 77 (he had already been in space and orbited the earth)
• Sonny Bono’s death
• The Eagles and Santana being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
• *NSYNC’s “I Want You Back”
• Elton John’s knighthood
• Frank Sinatra’s death
• Series finale of Seinfeld
• Mulan
• Aerosmith’s “I Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing”
• France’s first World Cup title
• The International Space Station
• Snowboarding in the Olympics
• The Euro
• A Bug’s Life
• Armageddon

Hope you enjoyed seeing what I’m as old as! I know I sure did! This puts a lot of things into perspective!!
