I googled “Brunei Melbourne” and several of my old blog posts showed up on the results page. Clicked randomly, and i was redirected to a blog post dating back to 2\/8\/2008. It’s like the universe is plotting to remind me that i would be turning 30 in a few days time. I don’t really like reading my old posts as most of them are cringe-worthy. Typically, I would usually just eye ball the page until i get to a picture or and old youtube video that i really like.<\/p>\n
Anyway, what caught my eye in this particular post is how i began the post by writing that “i have turned 17 and that i have another year before i can drive.”<\/p>\n
The numbers just didnt add up. I’m pretty sure i was older than 17 in 2008 AND if it was ANYTHING that i can do, it was DRIVE. Also,if i was 17, in 2008..shouldn’t i be younger than 30 in 2015? As i scrolled down the pages, it finally made sense; I’ve always maintained that i was 16..and 2008 wasn’t an exception. lol.<\/p>\n
I was simply staying true to my age-defying skills. Anyhow, what really struck me is the fact that i have been lying about my age online for more than a decade. I remember the first time I started turning 16 every year…. i was only 18…and now…<\/p>\n
i’m 30.<\/p>\n
THIRTY…pretty trippy.<\/p>\n
where did the time go??????
\nwhere have i been???
\nwhat have i achieved??????
\nwhat’s going to happen next???
\nWHY AM I NOT A MILLIONAIRE YET?????<\/p>\n
I woke up today to the realization that the white streak in my hair is aged-induced..and not the delayed results from the use of cheap shampoo and rebonding procedures in my teens.<\/p>\n
*gulp*.<\/p>\n
Ok. let me just take some time to reflect (and listen to Back Street Boys) on this and i will revert with a more calm and collected post.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
