At a party, the guest of honor stood up to make an anouncement. She said:

"The day before yesterday i was only fourteen. Next year, I will be 17."

How is this possible?

Got it!

Ok, so lets she says this on lets say january 1st. Her birthday was december 31st. Two days ago, she was 14. Then, she turned 15 on the 31st. A year from now, she would turn 16 on the same year, and then the year exactly a year from now (but at the end) she will be 17.
