It's almost 2 years to the deadline.
On the way to work today I had a sudden realisation when I looked at my parking sticker - it's July next month! I'm turning 28 on the 4th. Shit!
I've two more years before I hit the BIG THREE O and I feel like I haven't accomplished anything. Nothing to show for that mass comm degree that my parents sweated blood for (and I..errr..had sleepless nights for as well) and nothing to show for these few years of work. Which goes on to show that a college degree don't mean shit in this industry and when I have kids they're either going to be a famous musician / artist (if they lean that way) or a frickin doctor / accountant / lawyer (if they lean the other way).
Argh I feel like such a complete failure. On the checklist on things to do before you turn 30 (which I've probably made when I was still idealistic) I bet I can only tick off a couple of things. Like, getting married.
I think I need to make a new list now.
Off the top of my head:

Off the top of my head:
- Get knocked up. And not freak out.
- Get my "marital home". *Giggles*
- Get a new car. I've been driving the same car since college. Out with the old, in with the new I say even though it's gonna be heartbreaking.
- Write a book. Ok, start with short stories. Get it published.
- Visit a continent I've never been to. Obviously you have to count out Asia because I live here. At least visit one country in that continent pun takpe.
- Learn to cook, and not burn the kitchen down or kill anyone or chop off my fingers in the process.
- Work harder instead of spending half the time on Facebook or this blog; although most times it feels like it's not worth it.
- Read at least 2 books a week.
- Collect more CDs.
- Quit buying clothes on impulse. Especially cheap ass clothes with bad quality.
- Speak my mind more often. And I don't mean just in this blog.
- Go for a 2nd honeymoon with the hubster. *hint hint*
- Take my parents for a holiday! (Instead of them taking me and paying for everything. Hahaha)
- Become a better yogi.
