so much that i want to selectively declare sick! lol. no not for rag ('an-ewe-ess' rag), not for gatherings, but for certain other things...
i want to post a pic of the new jazz shoes (HAHA) that i bought just for rag.
anyway, about social things. i've seen quite a couple of people my age, dressed to the nines. with nice pretty evening dresses and office wear, for the girls. and long sleeved shirts and expensive watches and polished sharp-ended shoes and cufflinks for the guys. standing around while puffing a cigarette and joking away.
and then, i watched their mannerisms.
OH NO I CAN IMAGINE OURSELVES TWENTY YEARS FROM NOW.
when we turn middle-aged (gasp) and are more affluent and take to wearing office wear instead of preppy/casual shorts and a (polo?) tee. and some of us pick up smoking. others who have a bad sense of humour will continue to do so.
and we joke about stupid and lame, army lingo-inspired, business or family-related things.
and then, as we mingle around ourselves, and laugh and bare yellowed teeth, and teenagers look at us with astound [i think that's ungrammatical, is it?]
WAH LAU THEY ALL SO UNCLE/AUNTIE!!!!
will i grow up to be at least dignified, if not cool and accepted wholesomely by every one of all age groups?
from what i am now. i'll probably be this meek "friend's dad" who asks his kids' friends nosey questions like "oooh, how are you? what cca are you in? how is *insert kids' names* in class ah?"
OBASAN!
and then, in the presence of other friends, does foolish, silly things to make every one laugh.
CHILDISH!
i can't imagine myself as a 40 year old. although i realise time has been running VERY FAST since 2008. maybe because i've been doing more things that i like starting from that year.
