Can you believe that the year 2001 was 16 years ago this year? Actually it was 16 and half years ago?

I can't believe it's been 16 almost 17 years since 2001.That's nearly 20 years or 2 decades. WOW.

Time sure does fly by it doesn't seem like it's been that long ago.

I can't believe it either. I was 13 years old in the year 2001. 3 more years and it'll be 20 years since 2001. You're right time does fly.

When I was 13 the year 2017 seemed so far away. But now that I'm here in the year 2017 it only seems like maybe 5 years have passed. But not 16 almost 17 years.

On another note. It's already been 2 and half years since I moved to my new place and it only seems like one year ago. I'll be here at my new house for 3 years as of December 1st 2017.

Time sure does fly.

2001 sure doesn't seem that it has been so long ago.

But now in 2025 and now that we're in the last month of the year 2025 and 2026 will be in less than a month then 2001 will be 25 years ago and almost 30 years.

As of now 2001 has been 24 years and 11 months.

I remember when 9/11 in New York happened and I can't believe that it has been near 25 years and close to 30 years ago since that happened.
