I'm 18 and I need notes or I'll forget anything : P
You don't need to be old to need notes : D
by DA BEN DAN yanggui zi on November 7th, 2007
your old!!! and I write notes to myself all the time...even sometimes taping them to the inside of the door so I remember when I go out..:)
by Obey Gravity on November 7th, 2007
You're old unless the notes are work related.
by sephythura on November 7th, 2007
no, I write my self note, my binder is full of scribbled little notes and such
by Q_Master on October 26th, 2007
Yes ! I do
by .....----- on August 27th, 2007

by Not Here Anymore on August 27th, 2007
I write notes all the time...and usually remember to look at them. LOL

I write note so I don't forget things but often forget where I left them.
by Dark_Faerie on June 12th, 2008
You're not old- I have to carry around a separate backpack to carry the agenda i have to keep or i'll forget to eat!
by BabyRoo on April 30th, 2008
I do! :)
by Mckayla Bean on March 26th, 2008
No your not too old I make notes to help myself stay organized and mantain daily things
by Skwiggledame on March 17th, 2008
I have before and I'm 19. It doesn't hurt to make sure you can remember things. Just gotta remember what you wrote on.
by Brian I on August 27th, 2007
Yes, I write notes. The problem is I can never find the bits of paper I've written them on.
by Andariel on June 15th, 2009
As an author, if I don't write a couple of trigger words I often forget the inspiration, so I always carry a notebook, clipboard and pen with me everywhere for this purpose.
by DustinSuave on May 9th, 2009
Of course. I hate it when I forget something important.
by Ailsa on April 24th, 2009
LMAO Im 1 step further...
I write notes and lists then forget the notes and lists
by anonymous on February 10th, 2009
You're not old~I'm just a teen, and I write notes to myself all the time. The only problem is remembering to look at them. It's like when people tie a string to their finger to remember something, and then look the string and think, "What the heck is that thing?"
by i n a d x x_ 11 sleeps till im 21 on December 22nd, 2008

by pimp my pimple on December 10th, 2008
I usually try and picture a movie scene,of what i want to do and buy,if this doesnt really work then,my last resort is a note.Always remember to leave another note trail to where you posted your first note ?
by Runs_With_Scissors on November 27th, 2008
Oh - btw - hubby sometimes will put post-it's on the back of my laptop as I'm writing, so he doesn't disturb me while I'm "out there" or "in the zone" as he calls it...when I write, I tend to block out all other sensory input and I'm literally in my own little world. The notes will say, "Went out to get milk..." or "going to work, love you! XOXO" or "Going to bed, good night - don't stay up too late." My kids are starting to do so as well...LOL!
by Runs_With_Scissors on November 26th, 2008
Actually, I carry a pocket digital recorder with me where ever I go so if I get an idea while out and about I have it handy in case I get a story idea, or an idea for the next chapter, etc.
by Pikachu on November 26th, 2008
My golden rule: no one is old until they reach 75 years.
anyways, i keep a day planner and i write in it every day
by sm00z on November 9th, 2008
No, I'm old. If I don't write things down, nothing gets done around here.
by curieux on November 1st, 2008
i'm turning 55 & the amount of notes is increasing; but how old are you answered the old man?
by Tygerlilie on October 21st, 2008
I tend to forget to write the notes...
by Atsycat on September 28th, 2008
HA! I actually have began to forget a lot of things since I turned 40! I bought a dry eraser board with a magic marker and hang it on my fridge. I put down anything I do not want to forget. It works, because I see it everyday. I was a bit worried today, because I received an email from answerbag and had no clue I had even registered or asked a question! That is so annoying, but it is old age naturally.
by angel_124 on July 11th, 2008
i have notes i wrote then i hand wrote a story that i hope to one day publish i have entered many poems and won contests to..any thoughts,,, angel_124

Used to be handwritten notes only. Now I've got "to do lists" on my computer too! Have also started writing "seasonal reminders" in my calendar right along with the birthdays, appointments and such.
Liked the way you asked your question though. Nope .. not "just old". Just trying to get stuff done and keep track of the fifty billion things we all seem to have on our plates sometimes. lol Shoot, even if it's just one thing we don't want to forget? Sometimes the very ritual of "writing it down" is like a personal promise to "do it". Thanks for the question. :)
by seth86 on June 26th, 2008
when i list things to do, i even put tick boxes right next each item to see which ones ive done...and i'm 22.
by dakangl666 on May 18th, 2008
i've had to write stuff down since i was 12 or i would for get it all.....
by Lovehearts on May 16th, 2008
I don't write notes, I write on me : )
by brussellsprout on March 11th, 2008
I'm 28 and always write notes to myself. I even send notes to myself through text messaging.
by Sameer on February 27th, 2008
i wont,i remember things........but,rarely i do...
by bluestar_171 on February 20th, 2008
I used to do that all the time, but then i needed something to remind me to look at them;)
by what on January 31st, 2008
I do.
by Merfish on January 23rd, 2008
Notes cannot be a sign of age or else I must be about 1462 years old.
by ohthunderbelle doesnt dance she boogies on January 22nd, 2008
I write lists for *everything*. I'd forget all of it if I didn't write it down.
by Elleonora on January 20th, 2008
i do it too, and i am only 23.
by Anonymous on January 15th, 2008
You can easily write notes by clicking on a day and put reminders to it on a calendar that fills your entire screen. It is easy and quite right for old people. Go to http://www.google.com and search for
"COMPUDIARY FREE DOWNLOAD" to list the links that will allow you to download such a software
by nemo1990 on December 30th, 2007
All the time and I'm 17! :)
by shammers still slogging along on December 26th, 2007
Age has nothing to do with it! You're an organized person who feels gratification crossing items off your mental or written list! You'r good!
by Scarlets walk on December 21st, 2007
I make lots of lists, does that count?
by Life is beautiful...so am I on December 21st, 2007
yes, i do, but i never read them
by RosieGHM Jetpacker on December 13th, 2007
I've always been a "make list" person, even when I was much younger. I have found as I've gotten older I rely on those lists a lot more than I used to..old age? Well, yes..the alternative is death, so I'll take old age any day of the week! :)
by x.person.x. on December 13th, 2007
Lol. i write notes all the time because i forget stuff easily :)
by DA BEN DAN yanggui zi on November 23rd, 2007
You're old!...but I write notes all the time..I just can't always remember where I put them:)
by me2write on November 23rd, 2007
No it's not an age thing, don't worry. Most of my friends' kids keep a record of things they need to do in their 'to do' section in their mobile phones so young people need reminding also. I have lots of post-its in my bag ...but sometimes need a note to remind me to look in my bag! Me2write
by Mildbill on November 22nd, 2007
lol, one of the things thats is taught in most law enforcement and military academies, write it down. that way, you are not relying on memory when the time comes, you have it on paper. documentation is key they say....
by bluegenel on October 26th, 2007
I have a list that I check before going out the front door in the morning. You're not old, it's only a memory aid, like a diary...:)
by Redhawk on October 26th, 2007
ROFLMAO...looking around my desk here...I write myself LOTS of notes...AND I jot important things on the calender as well.
Of course, I will be 50 next March..so maybe I'm heading towards o l d.
