    Wow, has it really been that long? I could've sworn it was only six years, but still an accomplishment either way.

    Wow, I seriously can't believe it's been that long. That means I've been here more than five years myself ... I'm getting old. Moreover, TPM's getting old!

    Even though I've only been on the forums for four years, I visited regular website many times after Gold and Silver came out. It's amazing how long TPM's been going!

    dude.
    I got all excited because I thought this topic was about year 7's at high school and how annoying they were, being short and n00bish to the high school ways.

    Alas,

    happy birthday tee-pee-emm

    It's been a long time since I've been here. I remember way back then, in 2000, when I think I first came here. It's been that long, and I would think nobody remembers me. Well, anyway, great to see TPM still alive...

    @Dark ~ I'm aware of my age, lol, I'm just in shock that so much time has really come and gone. Today we found these pens that when you write, they change color, and we all were reminded of like.. 1992... and I was 6 in 1992... and 1988 was FOREVER ago... and I was alive in *gasp* 1986.

    Thinking about it, I had just started high school when I joined, back in february 2001.
    Now I'm finishing high school this year.
    I wasted the best years of my life in this place!! What?!
    I want a refund.

    Hm, curious. Don't fp and nine tend to pop back in for a word around this time? Usually TPM's anniversary is a more exciting event. Good on you Magmar, for picking up the slack when everyone else essentially forgot. lol

    Approaching my own five years later this month, and being thankful that there's no more evidence of some of the earlier posts I had made. Damn those were some crappy posts... even by my standards.

    [b][size=3] Yes, fp would usually do that. But I guess he doesn't seem to return back. However I do realized that my post gets rather lengthly year after year.

    @Magmar~ Yes, good for you that you realized your age. ^.^ I've got a cousin who is rather the same age as TPM. Though, she is starting pre- primary school this year.

    @Milliardo~ Is that so? I do not remember this character. I've watched both Wing and Seed. Your name doesn't ring a bell and also that avatar bear no resemblence to any of the Seeds characters.

    I think Milliardo was the guy Trowa was rivals with? I don't remember. All I know from Gundam is 1x2, 3x4, 1xR, 5xS, 1x9, 1x0, 4xThe Family Dog...

    Wow, the odd thing is it doesn't seem like such a long time to me... though lots of things in my life have changed since then, and more than a few of them are related to TPM in one way or another.
