It's August 4, 2003. Where are you in life?

About to start 8th grade. playing two sports(hockey/soccer), less than a month away from discovering counter-strike which would come to define my high school years.

Living in San Jose as a poorfag in a dead end job, but dating the love of my life and generally pretty happy, when I'm not insanely jealous. Have friends for really the only time in my life and am reasonably fit from biking everywhere. Aside from being poor it was OK.

Playing with my dinosaurs under the tree in my backyard
>fuck

I was in America, came back, had a shitty relationship. Installed dsl cable net with the whopping 256kbs and unmetered on my pirated Win XP dual core machine with 1gigs of ram and a 128bit 32meg ati radeon card.

I'm a child probably getting yelled at since I did stupid shit as a kid

>last year of high school will start I'm about a month
>spend most of August like I did July, playing Earthbound over again or something on my PS2 or GC with my brother and our nextdoor neighbor/friend

Just finished school.
Probably skating at the end of my street smoking shit hash.
Possibly at work though.

>dual core pc in 2003
>32mb radeon
What did you use that setup for?

Watching anime and porn

My mother had died on February 12th that year and I'd started secondary school not long before that. Met a girl that year I would eventually get engaged to. Hard to believe it was all that long ago. How'd I get so old so fast?

tenth grade, no gf, virgin, scared shitless of talking to girls (still am), failing school, started smoking pot, drinking, experimenting with harder drugs, somewhat blind optimism about the future

Seriously? Why'd you get a dual processor setup for that back then?

Oh and checked btw.

Starting 8th grade, and being a skinny punk.

Yes, but in was in transfer between nokia block phones to the more individualistic phones like the Razr and Sony Ericsson. They had palm pilots for smart phones.

Internet was around, but no social media till a year later when myspace was invented.

Everyone just used AIM. (AOL Instant messenger)

In Germany we had ICQ instead of AIM.

>How'd I get so old so fast?
Ouch.

I was 7 and visiting extended family for the summer. I remember this because there was the northeast power outage on August 14 2003 (had to google it to make sure) and everyone was left in darkness for a while. Anyways I remember the visit to Toronto quite fondly. Played a lot of cartoonnetwork flash games and went to Wonderland and watched the spongebob 4-D movie. Lineup was long but worth it. I remember falling asleep to weird cartoons like undergrads and clone high. My brothers would also use kazaa to download DBZ AMVs and movies and i particularly remember watching fusion reborn for the first time. Also drank a lot of fucking red kool aid. Thanks for the trip down memory lane OP. Those were comfy times.

10 years old on summer vacation probably playing some old ps2 or gamecube game

man i miss those days so much i wish toonami would come back daily i would legitimately watch it every 5pm again

I was 11
At my peak academically sadly, was 2 years into the new house my family had playing the hell out of Vice City, Soul Calibur 2 and Tony Hawks 4

Bruh I was 2

day after my thirteenth birthday. summer between primary school and secondary school. my parents didn't get me a present that year. didn't have a party either, and even if i'd had friends i'd have been too ashamed of my abusive dad and weird family dynamic to invite them over. I might have been hanging out with my cousins. Probably listening to sum 41 and good charlotte on my walkman.

you still have a shot at normalcy son. get out of here while the gettin's good.

Waiting to turn 6 years old next month.

>Playing in backyard until nightfall forces me back into the hoarder house

I stayed up late to watch anime possibly, woke up groggily and went to my middle school. Hating the assigned seating for the dozenth time and quietly ate my lunch talking to no one. In fact I probably didn't say a single damn word to anyone. Home->read fics online->write my own shitty fics->fantasize about anime boyfriend

Still in Africa .

Doing pre-deployment training.

watching the ben affleck Daredevil movie and ang lees hulk movie

im 12yo. probably at an internet cafe playing quake 3, red alert 2, brood war, heroes 3, counter strike, return to castle wolfenstein, carmageddon 2, ut 2000, gta 3/vice city or warcraft 3

In grade 6, getting very good at stealing yugioh cards off people. Id raid bags, silently swipe them out of decks while looking for trades, all sorts of fuckery.

I'm 19, working at mcdonalds and posting on gaia

>ICQ
IRC master race

>Still in Africa .
Nigger

I dunno I was about to turn 5 so I don't remember much from then

Playing PS1, watching YuGiOh and having hopes for the future

In my 2nd to last year of high school. The bullying I thought had finally passed was coming back a bit. I'd squandered the only chance at normalcy I'll ever have without realising it. And I was in the grip of a depression that would haunt me for over another decade and under whose shadow I'm still living despite having mostly overcome it.

A week ago I had my 11th birthday, and there it was on the table - Pokemon Sapphire and a Gameboy Advance. I had been a gigantic fan ever since gen 1, and right now the weather is great outside but a chubby boy is sitting on the couch exploring one of his favorite games.

wasting summer vacation in my divorced dad's apartment while he's at work watching reports of people getting blown up in Iraq in between car and antidepressant commercials on cable news

Literally no idea. I have zero memories of my past apart from factual information thanks to SDAM. Fucking blows.

I'm 15 years old and when I'm not outside jumping from bridges and swimming all summer long I'm player JSRF on the xbox I got for my birthday.

I was 16 I think and that summer I spent a week of it going to a youth club which went out on trips to places in the general area. One of those trips was to an aircraft museum which I still remember. I remember sitting on the ground in the shade of a tree looking at a V-1 displayed outside.

Probably having a good time unironically wearing and listening Nu-Metal shit.

>9 years old, end of summer vacation, preparing for the start of 4th grade
>Power Rangers Ninja Storm is life, loved the shit out of that show
Besides that, I can't remember much from that day

I was like a week or two away from starting my freshman year of high school.

I was only 3yo. Not yet aware of the world around me but still partaking in incest

To add, so influenced I was to Nu-metal that I was trying to keep up with some of them musically.
I remember setting up pillows like drum sets to play some Slipknot songs. Or singing their songs while wearing some masks. Great autism happened during those days. Sometimes playing Diablo 2 or dealing with my shitty PSX.

I was 12, I loved evanscence or at least the wake me up inside song. however, I really had no means of listening besides FM radio. No internet, no cellphone, not even a CD player. I was mainly playing at friends house, hanging out at parks and the construction sites near my house. I got my first kiss, pretty early I know, but I would not lose my virginity until 24. I was a coward. 12 years old was the last time I can truly say I was happy. Had real good friends and my family was together.

I was a happy kid, man. Friends, eyebrows, I had it all.

Probably playing video games. I guess not much has changed, except for the games I play.

Enjoying the unique atmosphere/aesthetic that only summers in the early 2000s had. I was also really young and naive, I believed that life would turn out better. I had the illusion of hope.

I'm 6 years old in kindergarten enjoying life blissfully unaware of what my future had in store for me. I miss being happy and clueless.
