1st Week into a new Decade...

We all remember 11 years ago when people sits beside their com "waiting" for the millennium bug to happen while some random religion/cult believes that 2000 is the end of the world but after 11 years life still goes on. (Althought the millennium bug DID happen on the iPhone alarm clock recently. like 11 years late though. )

Do you remember where you were or what you were doing back in year 2000 ? How far have you move on within this 10 years? If you have a kid born in year 2000, he is already ready to take this primary 4 streaming exams this year !

For me, I was taking my Os in year 2000 which is the final year of my secondary school education and this year will be the final year of my degree education. (Apparently nothing much changes eh ? )

I was on 56k Modem back then and I spent most of my time on "social media" back then. It's the mIRc. Making new friend, receiving music files and looking at advertisement. ( e.g " looking for a girl wearing pink just now at Tampines Interchange, I was the guy in blue and you smiled at me.) Now, I spent most of my time on social media (still) using this thing call 3G , making new friends, receiving news and still looking at text advertisement but of products. same same but different different.

My favorite arcade game was Tekken Tag Tournament and now it's Tekken 6. LOLX

I was standing 179cm and weight 101kg. This is like a roller coaster ride to 85 and then to a bottom of 77kg and back to 80 odd and now almost 90kg. Still over weight. Nothing much changed.

Single as of 2000, got a GF in 2002 and still the same GF. Still the same...

Stays at a little flat with a happy family at Tampines and still the same place. still the same..

Apparently looking at these comparison, 10 years ain't exactly that long after all right? Well, that's because I choose to look at the picture from such an angle that nothing much has change but the fact is that life moves that fast and you do not need 10 years to realize how much have changed in your life. One's goals, targets, dreams,mentality,position must have change some how. Like they always say " Changes is the only constant in life."

It's only 1 week into the new decade and a little too early to get all emotional over it but I suppose a lot did happen in these 10yrs. Looking back all at one go is like hitting myself with a ten years series of emotions. Happiness, Fear, Joy,Laughter,Anger,Disappointment,Surprise,Awesomeness,Fuzzy WOOO..

So how is life treating you so far?

P.S : I have backlog post about a recent Health talk I went as well as my bintan trip. I have no idea why I am blogging about this first. LOLX
