But then I remember seeing that the average age was 18 and I was like,

oh, fuck, no, I can't hang out or, like, be in a room filled with 18-year-olds who are smarter than me.

Yeah.

So I think I definitely, like, missed the train on having that experience.

But at the same time, I did so many other things and I chose other experiences and I wouldn't trade them.

But I still, like, I mean, I'll go to on a campus and I'll be like, oh.

But I think it's also because I have a dreamy idea of what it is because I never had to do it and practice fully.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I mean, you can find that in other contexts as well.

I've found it.

Yeah, definitely.

Yeah, but it is a buffet of experiences that you can have.

Oh, they're all painful in different ways.

Yeah.

No, but it's definitely the pride of getting to pull something off or like managing to pull something off even when it was really difficult is very satisfying.

I like working on jigsaw puzzles, but I don't like how much table space they take up because I just have one big table where I can do it.

And that's also my dining table.

So I made this mechanical table where you can switch between two tabletops.

And that was an incredibly painful project.
