Its has been fun being 28. And I am not at all looking forward to being 29. That just leaves me one year of crossing over to the doomed side. I cannot imagine being 30. How would I react to things? Should I act all grown up and lose sight of the fun things in life? Should I be more serious and cross out all things that make me happy in life? Could I never smile again???
I dont know why people have to grow old. I am perfectly content being 28. Heck, I was perfectly content being 26. But no! the units in my age have to increase one by one like those stupid counters I teach in class to reach this even more stupid age.
I envy people in their early twenties. I think there’s nothing greater than the I-dont-give-a-damn feeling of youth. Of course now that I’ve almost half a foot in the grave, I might as well hang up my dancing shoes and consider myself lucky if I have Fun once a year.
I hate 2008. I wish it was 2007 again. I dont want to be 29. My life is over. I am old. Senile is me. I cant believe almost three decades of my life is already over. I still havent done half the things I wanted to do in this lifetime. Its funny watching Joey cry, “Why God, why?” on TV. Its an entirely different story when it happens in reality.
If I cant stand to be 29, I wonder if I have to sit to be 30 next year…
Dont let me miss it yaar! I forgot the D-day date!
Am I very late or you are too early???
I am one month early. I turn 29 on June 21st. Now leave me alone so I can cry on my pillow
How about we all decide to try the I-don’t-give-a-damn trick on the wrong side of twenty?
You are only as old as you think as you are. Do what I do - forget your birthyear and don’t try to remember it. It works for me cause my memory sucks.
Even I hate 2008. :X
I really don’t get it. What is all the fuss about wanting to remain young?
I, for one, have never kvetched about getting older, although I want it back to try a few things again.
I try, Priya. Its just that there’s this car in the neighbourhood with the number plate: SK02A-1979. I hate that car.
Can I join your club, Shradha?
Deepak - I guess its a girl thing. Old aint definitely not gold in my books, agewise.
