start now =) At least you would have some kind of accomplishment =)
Although I'm 36, going to turn 37 in December, I do feel old. Seeing most of my friends married and have kids makes me wonder if something is wrong with me. :(
I do find myself having more blind spots now. Like, I have to look around multiple times to make sure I didn't miss something in front of me.
My schoolmates and I meet a few times a year and talk about how old we are getting, how we all kind of got presbyopia at the same time, and what we want to do with our careers. Then the Sultan of Kedah, Abdul Halim, became King of Malaysia. Abdul Halim was crowned King of Malaysia in 1970 in his early 40s, and in 1972 all of us were born, when Abdul Halim was King. Now the 40-year cycle has come round again and Abdul Halim has become King again in his 80s.
So all of us imagine if Abdul Halim had felt "old" in 1972 because he was in his early 40s, and if he had spent much time thinking about missed opportunities rather than the future. He kept going over our entire lifetime and is now in his second rotated term as King, and remains an inspiration for all of us. At 43? Pfah, we're only halfway there. And His Majesty may continue for quite a few years yet!
aww...thanks PJ. :D :)
Yeah, sometimes being single is lonely. I'm ok with no dating online sites. I've been there and done that (not that I went to 2redbeans.com). My outcome, most of the guys I've met were desperate. Scarred me. LOL. :D
True. You can't afford to make as many mistakes as an adult.
For me it's also to do with having 10 things on mind at any given time and only a fraction of that is actually spent on the thing in front of me.
I just read an article that said as an adult/parent you do 100 things a day instead of 10.
A little bit old (in my thirties now). Most of my friends and cousins are getting married or have been married for several years now. Either that, or they are too busy with their jobs to go out and have fun. I think I need to find a hobby for the future. TVB does keep me occupied - just finished watching 潮拜武當. And I just returned from a bus trip to Shanghai and 九寨沟 (Jiu Zhai Gou - Valley of Nine Fortified Villages) in Sichuan with family. The scenery in 九寨沟 was breath-taking - I believe it is where they filmed the 2006 Return of Condor Heroes. There is also a lot of Tibetan settlements around the area - pretty nifty to see.
九寨沟 is 1 of the top 2 or 3 most beautiful places I've ever been to. And I've been to a lot of places.
Did you see the nearby Huang Long?
I don't think the bus took us there. After Jiu Zhai Gou, I think we went to Chengdu (bought some Three Kingdoms souvenirs and gifts for friends). We also went to Emei mountain and the temples there.
Kids are incredibly distracting with their questions that disrupt your train of thought. I'm not talking about some profound question about the nature of the world around them but rather things like: who's your favorite Pokemon, your favorite land animal, who's more powerful Aang or Goku? It's not that I don't want to answer these questions but rather I've already answered them multiple times or the answer should be fairly obvious. They also tend to ask these questions at the most inopportune times like when you're running late.
This is on top of mundane considerations like did they bring their backpack? Drink enough water, visit the restroom, wash their hands, etc.
I also find that reading stories disrupt my normal focus or rather I should say they consume mental cycles that leave less cycles for other things like noticing whether I've rolled up my car windows. This happens even when I'm not actively thinking about what I've read. The recent XianXia translation explosion, and my access to an iPhone has affected me greatly since I've been following pretty much every translation. Of course it could just be the early onset of Alzheimer's.
Yeah... I'm ill-equipped for parenting because I take questions seriously. If they ask 10 questions per minute, I'm going to think through each one and give the best answer.
I'm sure I will adapt as necessary.
Is that how superficiality takes over?
I have zero interest now in the so-called "nightlife" (bars and clubs), which I used to frequent. Now my ideal nightlife is strolling a lively street at my leisurely pace.
Yeah, I'm an old man ;)
It is often advised that to feel younger, one should mix with young people. I found this to be contrary. With young people, I become to remember and feel that I am old.
Perhaps I should mix with older people?
I feel that at my age its too much of a hassle to go out just for the heck of it. The traffic is really bad here in Toronto. Supposedly, we have the busiest highway in all of north america.
yeh you kind of have to be aggressive and force your way in. I don't know how much faster people can go if we are all in traffic and they don't want to let you merge. But have to agree, driving in traffic is such a hassle. Sometimes I use public transportation because parking is also terrible....
You guys are all still very young. Remember, 30s is the new 20s, plus ppl are living longer now. How you think about yourself determines how you feel =)
I never heard of two redbean site but I know a few people who found success on eharmony.
401 has the busiest traffic in north america. I used to spend over an hour just driving to work few years ago. I was forced to leave home at 6:30 am just to alleviate the traffic.
Never thought about it that way. :cool:Quote:

When you get older, you do not mind a lot of things though you may be mumbling inside.
Maybe you look very young for your age and they mistaken you guys are the same age??? But hey that means you are very pretty and young... ;););););)
Then there are some guys who like older women I heard. That's what my coworker says because they are more mature and not expecting the guy to pay for everything. But I don't know to what extend that is true.
Nice guys, yes..but I can't picture myself. The youngest I would go for a guy would have to be 5yrs and he would have to be mature. I do not want to babysit another child.
Yeah, it does... :)
Thanks for the compliment. :) I did ask those young guys why they are into older women and they said the same thing like your above statement. Older women = maturity and stability. If I was to date a younger guy, he would to have a mature mind and can also provide for my needs.
