Happy 2nd Year-old to My Nephew!!
My sister's first son, Hamzah, celebrates his 2nd birthday last monday. i myself havent thought of what i should give him. Presents to aid in his education and growth? Games to make sure he enjoys his childhood?
Seriusly i got no idea in mind. I might end up sharing the cost of a children study table with my mum then.
March signifies a birthday month for m0st of my family members. My dad, my sister, me and my nephew. march rules!
well im not really in the mood to welcome my 24 years of living on earth. Coupled with the fact that i might spend the whole day at the army camp due to a mobilisation exercise. Go watch Tv this saturday and u will see!
By next year, i am a quarter of a decade old. The word OLD seems to have strike a huge chord in my head/heart/mind/body that i AM OLD. physically old. Not the "old enough to do what i want"..........Its the stage where you plan your future career and the path u are going to take and where u are heading in life. Then comes another stage of settling down and soon, the era of FATHERHOOD!
"aging period"
Nooooooooooooooo..................... this has come too early for me though. Im not young but neither am i old. the fact that im still studying in NUS and still has a year left makes me ponder when i should start to kick off my career. ok maybe get a job first. Maybe soon insyallah! Money needs to be saved too.
Right now, i had plenty of reminders telling me " you are old already"..
when i realise that i dont have 6 packs anymore. Ok forget 6. not even 4 or 2! it has become a united, one party, homogeneous collection of fats around the tummy. The latest evidence is when i cannot fit into my army pants even with all the buttons loosen. THAT is demoralising!
When a small kid calls me "uncle" or pakcik and not even abang or brother! Happens so many times!
The janggut/goatie
When i keep forgetting to do things that i have been reminded countless times and then realise... " oh! really ehh??"
When someone asks me: " when do u graduate from secondary school or Jc?" and when i try to calculate the years back, i realise its like 7 to 12 years ago!! Such disbelieve, man. Wonder how i went through my secondary days and then cracked my brain for A levels.
When me and my friends play a different kind of guessing games. From "who are ur crushes" to "who is getting married first"!!!
When I Need longer time and plenty of water to recover after soccer game or any strenuous exercise or work.
When i took half an hour after the alarm clock rings to get my body up into a sitting position. I can almost hear the creaking sound of my back whenever i attempt to wake up.
Oh And the lists just go on and on... For now i have to make sure i fulfil what i want before aging takes place!!
