thirty-somethings
Lately, I've been hanging out with people from the thirty something age group. Which is kinda interesting because I've always thought the age gap could create some communication barrier. Well, i figured it really depends on who u are talking about.I get along fine with my brother. In fact, its rather fun hanging out with him.
I was having a very nice chat with a late-30s guy. It was an enjoyable chat. Which lasted up to 4 hours and I still felt that it wasn't enough! haha
Had dinner with another fren yesterday... it was ok. I won't say that it was crazy fun but still it was enjoyable.
I began to see something in common between these people. They are all single 30somethings. Neither entirely desperate, nor unhappy. I can't tell if they are contented, but i get the impression that if they are well, sort of happy? Ok maybe contented to a certain extent will be way to describe it.
The 30somethings I use to know were horrible to hang out with. I mean, even lunch in a group creeps me up totally. Typical talk on work, retrenchment, the job market, property, cars, kids etc. I guess when u are married and have kids, you do change a lot huh?
Or maybe, I am the one who has changed. The 30something person trapped in a 20something's body! hahah! totally crap.
I'm beginning to ponder over that, since some of my conversation topics centers on food, cooking, and even herbing! (ok i don think there is such a word) -- growing herbs.
Oh by the way, so far these guys are all really sweet. My brother included. When we were young, he was such a jerk, but now he can be so sweet sometimes.
Ken: You use to like papa smurf! We have no idea why, but it was like the ugliest and therefore cheapest smurfs around cos nobody wanted to buy it! We thought perhaps u were lacking in fatherly love or something!
