I'm currently 23, but I look 16-18 so I've been told countless of times and right now it feels like a headache!
I went to see an R rated movie and got carded 4 times in the same movie theater. It wasn't frustrating the first time as getting asked for my ID isn't anything new so I expected it.The second time I thought in my head, 'Well you know people make mistakes so they are just doing their jobs.'The 3rd time - okay, I felt like they were really pushing it.
Finally when I got to the door I was stopped and carded for the fourth time, and I was extremely bothered at this point because they thought I had still managed to sneak in after going through 3 people who carded me. I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs but didn't. It just it was so hard when these people who were checking my IDs were people who appeared to be in their 20s. It felt awkward!
Don't get me wrong though...I know when I get older that looking younger than my age is a good thing but at this age, gah, so troubling. I do love it sometimes too. Especially when I get to watch people guess incorrectly so many times. Then the look on their faces afterwards is the best, because they usually go, "No way your older than me? HOW?!" I always find myself chuckling.
Ah, it's such a roller coaster ride. lol
