I have been alive for 8,550 days (1,221 weeks, or 23.41 orbits around the sun). Since consciousness does not begin at birth — earliest autobiographical memories form around age 3.5 — I have been consciously experiencing the world for roughly 7,272 days (19.9 years). In that time, the Earth has carried me 22,002,775,200 km around the Sun and spun me 342,684,000 km on its axis. I have witnessed 289 full moons, lived through 93 seasons, eaten roughly 25,650 meals, spoken an estimated 136,800,000 words that I hope their majority were sensible, kind, and left no harm. All of this amounts to 0.00780287% of the ~300,000‑year history of Homo sapiens. According to current WHO estimates, the global average life expectancy is 73.3 years, meaning I have lived 31.9% of my expected lifespan, with roughly 2,603 weeks (18,223 days) remaining.
