30th Anniversary

The time has arrived. It is time to move into another new phase in life. hahha.. Dun get me wrong, i m not married yet. lol. I have left the 20 age group and move to the next one. Well, though i am always 25 but reality is harsh, i cant deny tat. I tot a lot recently yet at the same time looking forward to another new phase in life.

When i was 20, i told myself, i need to work hard to achieve wat i wanted in life. Its an impt era cos it is during this period when u finish ur basic education n embark on first career. I fulfilled my promise. I managed to get my degree as i strived very hard during my poly years. After graduation, i found a job that i liked. Well, I have always envy pple with good education n good career. I wont say i m the best but i know wat i wanted n did wat i want.

Life have been good. I managed to travel a lot in the last decade. I still remember the first holiday when i was 21. That time i went Brisbane and Gold Coast with a close friend Lincoln. Really miss those days. Nothing much to worry abt. Just do my NS then hang out with friends. Ha.. Tat reminded me of movie marathons and clubbing with Kenneth too. The first time i engaged in clubbing. Europa. So long ago...

Subsequently, it was a long vacation to London, Paris, Venice and Rome etc. JB, KL and Bangkok became common holiday destinations with Edwyn n Gavin. We will go on Saturday after class to Msia. During semester break, we will go to BKK. hahha.. So fun wor. As i embarked on my career, i started travelling even further to New York, LA and Vancouver. Really nice.

Then i first shifted house when i turned 21. I have been staying in this flat for almost 10 years. My childhood n teenage years were spent in a 3 room flat in Toa Payoh. hahha... Then again, brought me memories of all the things that went on ard my house. The mad man who kept banging on my window every nite cursing, urinating. Cats coming into my house in search of food. Lizards sleeping next to me. hahhaha... Squeeze in a small room full of rubbish with my sis. hahahha.. Cant believe it. Now i have a room all to myself.

Oh yes, i have not forgetten finding my love too. Never experience love when i was a teenager. Probably i never believe in a relationship during tat time. Wat i wanted was to concentrate in getting a degree. I am happy i found someone who is willing to share with me. I would say i gone thru a lot the last decade. I had plenty of sweet n happy moments. I do have my darkest moments too. I guess everyone goes thru the same stuff but on different scenario. If you ask am i happy the last 10 years? I would say most of the time yes.

What about life after 30? It is an era of heavy responsiblity. It will also be an impt era cos this is the time when u start ur marriage life. It is more of bread n butter issue and how to survive even without the help from parents. Defnitely not easy. And if u have a kid along the way, i guess you have more to worry. Probably less adventurous, less risk taking and more family oriented. As for career, u cant change much as you would be in the middle or senior management. It is a decade of challenges. I m ready to face it. I hope pple of my league are ready too....
