How amazing computer games look now.
I mean, I'm impressed now, on behalf of ten year old me I suppose.
So many things! But mostly that I have a lot of wonderful friends. I was a pretty lonely child, awkward and uncool.
Computers aren't cool anymore.
I finally learned to ride a bike. And I touched boobies.
That I never watched the final Star Wars movie. I was 10 years old in 1977 when the original came out
I can't imagine 10 year old me
I didn't have a lot of belief in myself. At 10 my dream was "work in an office", because it would mean I was smart enough to not need to work a manual job. I also firmly believed that no woman would want me.
I'd be surprised to learn that I'm married, have a child, and work in tech for one of the biggest companies in the world. They'd also be surprised that I'm moving to that city where Friends is.
That I graduated high school, have a job, and changed my name. Instead of being locked away in a group home where I'm forced to stagnate at mentally 6 years old, and also punished for being mentally 6 instead of older.
Same as you. I also fully expected to be overweight. Sort of still do expect that at some point.
10 year old me would be surprised that my predicted death didn't happen. As a bit of fun one time my cousin, my sister, and I all wrote obituaries for ourselves and I couldn't imagine living past 35 so that's when I set my death date. It would be a bit of a shock for him that I'm staring down the big 4-0 (still a bit of a shock for me).
That I'm an atheist, probably. Living on the opposite side of the world is a close second.
Well I did write down that I was going to win a billion money and move to the moon. I have much less faith in gambling now though.
You are in accounting? Wtf? You can't even count.
