i must be getting old.
this morning, i happened to step into a noisy elevator full of vibrant, bubbly college kids probably starting their practicum in some company in the building.

trying not to be rude by covering my ears, i could only wince in my corner on the cramped elevator as they talked in really loud, excited voices all at the same time about their new id laces, yahoogroups, pictures and what-nots.

when the elevator finally stopped at the 12th floor, imagine what i must have looked like when they (all 10 or so of them) shrieked in unison as the elevator doors started closing while some of them were still trying to get out.

ahhh...the uhm, "springtime of youth" can sometimes be annoying isn't it?
