ok. so a couple weeks ago, i had a much dreaded 22nd birthday. it was sorta anti climax, in that there wasn't as much hype associated with turning 22 as opposed to the yr b4, where i had my 21st birthday celebrations at home...adding to this, the weather decided to go bad, and it started raining really REALLY heavily like alllll day....boo.
but i guess like one of my friends was saying, it's all downhill from the moment you turn 21...until the time when your 40th birthday rocks up - then it's like you've reached your "mid life crisis point" (is this still applicable to men only? come on, guys, i'm sure this also applies to the girls as well~!!! :) or, if ya like, i guess the next "milestone" after 21 is your 25th bday: aka your "quarter life crisis" hah...any excuse to go crazy and have a huge, insane celebration is fine by me..:D
as to the question of whether or not i feel any different having turned my 1 into a two, i'd say that there wasn't any immediate difference felt, although i'm painfully aware of the added responsibilities of me turning my one into a two...a few of which imma list below for you:
1) i gotta get off my big butt and get myself off to uni already!! enough of me procrastinating and saying "awww, let me work for a little bit longer - and i'll just apply for uni next yr...don't worry!" (the other day, i realised that i've been working as a nurse for a little more than 3 years now...phew! that's a looong time to be putting of going to uni!)
2) i gta get my p's already....enoughwith having to have my parents/church friends/colleagues ferry me around like some invalid...lemme get my p's!! =P
3) i also really wanna travel os...by myself....to see wt it's like trekking the globe without my parents for a change..heheh. i also got to visit saz in london, so added incentive for me to get going already, yeahs? :)
4) *i'm sure this is going to apply more to the guys than to the girls (rewind to ENGAGE08 , mark driscoll's 1st talk...hehe ;) but i'd really like to move out at some late stage and see how it feels like to live out from under the roof of my parents for a while..guess i just really need to find my own feet for myself, and moving out could be a possiblity and also a means of helping me become more independant??although i'm in no real rush to be moving out at this stage of my life..lemme fufil points 1,2 and mebbe 3 first, then i'll be considering whether moving out of home is a viable option or not, k?
yikes. ok so mb i'm thinking/planning too much in the future...!! but i think it's about time i started doing more things for myself and well, yeahs. ;P
