Should I be sad too that I'm going when I'm 21? I was slightly concerned before but now I'm on the verge of moderately.

What is sad about that? Most people on these boards have never been.

Kenmei had said, 23 sadly. My response was trying to indicate if I should have gone earlier and/or I would miss some stuff being 21. What I could miss I don't know but I guess my question is why he was sad going at 23?

and i also think that most here never have been and i think age doesnt really matter.
