You know you are old

MoonFace wote about how Chen Kaige defined old some time back. Technically, we are not considered old. But we are not jumpily young either. Face it, we are reaching 26 and to tell the truth, life is about to begin for many of us, especially MoonFace who is getting hitched in Oct. You know, it is still a funny feeling seeing your best friends get married because you have spent your gawky years together and you know, judging by the years that you had spent together, that someone is probably going to be awkward parents who cry the minute their dolls cry. How weird. But I am really happy for her, to know that she found the happiness that she has been looking.

You know you are old when your knees start cracking when you are 3/4 through your 5km run.

You know you are old when your best friends around are flipping through parental guide books.

You know you are old when you walk past the beauty counters and the salesgirls started pushing anti-aging products into your face.

You know you are old when your neighbours' kids address you as Auntie.

You know you are old when you see teenagers wear their fringes as feelers.

You know you are old when boys around you are younger. GOsh.

You know you are old when most of your body parts are moving south.










You know you are old when your kids walk in their heels.
