    Hey guys, since I joined in like 2007 and bugger all people that are here now were here back then, I figured I'd post a thread re-introducing myself. Everybody feel free to post something about you.

    My name is actually Michael. All my friends call me Ed, I live in Australia. I married my high school sweetheart last November and come this February we are moving cities to start our own lives together.

    I joined this site under the name Megiddo, which I am also signed up as on other sites. I enjoy playing games, riding my dirt bike, playing guitar, playing cricket and hockey (field hockey, no ice where I live).

    Also, come February I will be studying to become a school teacher. For those that don't know, I'm 21 right now, 22 in April.

    That's about it,

    Cheers

    Ed

    Hi Michael!
    Wow, that's a young age to get married. But really cute :)

    Eh, I'm 21 tomorrow. just started studying social science, so I have about 5 years left -.- I wanna major in psychology though.
    I like shopping and partying mostly.

    Funny thing is, we know at least 2 other couples that are married that are younger than us. And massive amounts of people younger than us with kids. It's ridiculous how many teenagers have children.

    My sister studied psychology for a couple of years, she did a double degree of teaching and psych. She hated psych so she dropped it :p

    Early congrats on your birthday too! Get hammered!

    Ugh, I had it in college and absolutely loved psychology. So I doubt I'll get tired of it :p

    And YES. I know like.. 10 people younger than me who are parents. It's insane.
    Thank you :D

    There was a 15 year old girl where I live that had a baby with a 19 year old dude. Isn't that technically child molestation?

    The legal age here is 15, so it wouldn't be. But idk about Australia? :p
    I know a girl that got pregnant at 14 and gave birth at 15 too. That is just .. crazy.


    Wanna hook up McCheezie?

    Shin dig? Having no idea what that means, I assume you mean party? :p
    But nah, nothing huge. The legal drinking age here is 16, så 21 is really no big deal.
    I am however meeting up with some friends tomorrow and getting drunk. My friend would be a pink Moet and then we'll probably just go to some club. But again, nothing huge =D
    I am on a holiday though, so I can do whatever.

    Family and friends are coming over today for dinner, so just a good time with my family is what I want most today

    She's studying animal science and is doing 10 days of work placement there. With her animal science course she can do pretty much anything to do with animals except a vet. The vet course is insanely hard apparently

    Shin dig is an aussie thing? Ah well.

    And yes Freja, legal age is 18. There's probably some age gap allowance, but 15 and 19 breach it.

    I think we're in different states anyway. Scott's in SA (i think), and I'm in Vic.

    Well Freja didn't know what a shin dig was so I assumed it was because nobody outside of Australia can understand our slang.

    Really? I'm in NSW too, we're all in different states

    A google search results in confirming MCheezie's answer. The term shindig was first used in American writing in the 1870s.

    Sicknuts. Where you from sir cheeze?
