Older is wiser... - 5:50 PM
Complain Complain Complain... haha thats enough of complaining for a while. Not that those previous issues of pay, increment, job issues are dealt with perfectly, just that maybe life can take a slow lane now and do with less complaining. Afterall, if complaining can't help, why complain? If you still have to live a dae unhappy no matter what, why not live it happyily? If you can't beat them, join them. If you have to do it anyway, why not just do it? Ok the list of stupid enouraging words that equals to "thats life, life sux, live it" goes on and on and on.... just like the energizer battery.One and a half years into my work, the only obvious thing that came out of it is I am older and richer. Now richer is a subjective word. I am not super rich, and I still don't really like to spend a bomb on anything. I just like to save and to invest, as in I know I have to use that large amount of money to buy something big someday. EXCEPT I have no idea what the hell am I going to spend so much money on when I have to think twice about eating my next meal. Just kidding. I act as if I am so hard up for money sometimes I laugh deep inside.
Richer now means when there is a need for something, I have no problem finding the money. When theres no need for it but I just like it, I still can find that money for it. When theres no need for it and I just don't need it, thats folly. And I can afford to be silly nowadays. Being silly once in a while can be nice.
Ok I can imagine my girlfriend reading this para will really be geefully smilling. I expect a conversation like this.
"Dear don't you think this dress looks nice on me?
Ok, but its expensive and you don't need it. You got lots of them.
But I just like it, and its different from those I own.
Come on dun be silly... Its no different.
But you say silly is nice once in a while!"
Ok, I shot myself in the foot. Take down this para before she sees it? Haha just joking, my girlfriend is understanding. Shes nice.... She don't anyhow buy things... Urmmm lets just move on. No more bout this topic.
Now old.... Thats super subjective. Well I think I can accept the fact that my looks have changed. Growing old is part of life, and when you are still mixing with younger people who are not working, you tend to get remarks that you have grew older. You LOOK old. Gosh, those remarks hurts. Wait till you graduate! haha.
Ok, as you grow older, you realize music tells you the fact. Some music nowadays just don't suit your ears(I am being polite here, they in fact are ****).
Why the hell is the whole world so crazy bout this guy etc. Now I think I still enjoy great music, but well.... Anyway you see those old singing heroes of yours getting older. People like "the 4 heavenly kings of HK", ermm you know them right? Andy Lau, Aaron Kwok etc.. Thankfully I am not that old. Well fact is, people nowdaes dun love them anymore like we used to. They have become lengendary singers. So at the age of 26, you suddenly have your own set of lengendary singers, the same that you used to laugh at your mum's set of Deng Li Jun and Feng Fei Fei. I still have Jacky's song playing on my blog. (He's still good. So good) Opps. Thankfully I still know Jay Chou and Jolin Tsai. I am not that old ok? Just... Just getting older.
Growing older is no big deal it seems. Everyone goes through that. And soon those people saying that you are old catches up with you and grow old themselves. Just that age gap is a gap that cannot be bridged.
Older is wiser. Lets become wiser. Smile guys.
