The Big Three-O

[dreamwh]

Friends, most of us will be turning 30 this year (some already did)... any thoughts to share?

[KoChun]

I have arrived!!! Maybe the fastest in our batch. Anyone dare to claim that he/she can beat me?

[dreamwh]

time to get married la you... before saham turun somemore.

[KoChun]

'A man is only consider mature when he turns 30' - KoChun :rolleyes:

[dreamwh]

how does it feel to be 30...

[KoChun]

Like heaven, my friend. Don't talk so much, you will be there pretty soon. Meanwhile, I get to enjoy heaven first. :D

[Sila]

this big milestone is fast approaching for me. i think for women a bit more difficult. my mother has out and out called me "old" and wants me to start having children cepat cepat cepat after i get married. me, i want to have kids but i want to take my time lah. make sure semua nanti cukup makan, cukup for school, and all that lah.

also i think it is a time to think about what we have, what we want, and maybe realize that there are things we want that we won't be able to have but to stop trying to achieve it would be giving in and that would be a blow to our spirits.

i say, onward to the next decade! may our 30s be better, more prosperous, happier and more satisfying for us! and if we are down, we can always come to the forum and chitchat with our classmates, that will help us feel better. i know this forum always cheers me up :o

it's not a competition guys, but i do agree with sila - getting more philosophical as the big 3-0 appears. well, the good news is that, 40 is the new 30!

[dreamwh]

Thanks Euj.... Brad Pitt is 40, still looks ok to me.

[dreamwh]

Youth is wasted on the young...

[euj]

Youth is wasted on the young...
couldn't agree more. if i ever have kids, i'm gong to teach them all that shit i've learnt over the year...
1) if you like a chick, tell her. don't worry about rejection, it's a numbers game.
2) don't worry about what other people think - do whatever you want as long as it doesn't harm others.
3) when working with tools, if you have to force it, you're not doing it right.

The average life expectancy of the cave man was about 16 years. In 500 BC the average life expectancy was about 20 years. In 400 AD it was 35 years. In 1900 it was 47 years. In 1930 it was 59 years. By 1975 it had advanced to about 71 years, and in 1989 it had advanced to 74 years for men and 78 years for women. Speculatively, by the year 2,010 it might be 100 years. During all of these times the Maximum Potential Lifespan remained at about 120 years, and has not increased.

geez, going to have to figure out what to do with all that extra time...
i've always felt that i won't be around for very though...don't know why - just a nagging feeling...

[siewjang]

For me, I'm looking forward to turn 3-0. Retirement is already playing in my mind. I'm all tired and worn out now. Time to relax and have a cuppa. :D Cheers!

[KoChun]

Jang, you will be leading most of us here by 3-0 in a couple of months time. Correct ah?

[euj]

well, if we're all going to live to 120, looks like you're going to have to work for a while more...

[siewjang]

Jang, you will be leading most of us here by 3-0 in a couple of months time. Correct ah?
Correct, correct. Pandai (talk with a sarcastic look...*grin)

[siewjang]

Care to elaborate further? Don't quite understand.

[euj]

Care to elaborate further? Don't quite understand.
it's what sree said in the other thread, about people living longer and possibly 120 will be quite common soon.

[siewjang]

Don't think I will want to leave that long. Old and useless.

[euj]

Don't think I will want to leave that long. Old and useless.
yeah, the mind boggles as to what we'll do at that age. maybe we could all book ourselves into an old folks home. would be fun!

*crying out loud*

[Yvonne Allan]

Senior Citizens are given more privileges.........hahahhahaha :D

[dreamwh]

Hey Euj, living to a 120 can be fun... what if we can live to a 125 or 130. We would have seen the 20th, 21st and the 22nd centuries!!!!

[dreamwh]

i wanna be 120 and healthy and bloody-rich!!!!

[Yvonne Allan]

yea...u need all the $$$$$ to purchase viagra for and upright position! hahahahaaaaa :D

[dreamwh]

yea...u need all the $$$$$ to purchase viagra for and upright position! hahahahaaaaa :D

You, they better put in a straight-jacket before you reach 35.

[Yvonne Allan]

Why.....? Poor innocent me........ ;)

[Yvonne Allan]

:p

[Sila]

i think, i will only want to live to 120 if that is the normal expected age to live. otherwise, i don't want to be the only bugger left, looking around - all my classmates, children, maybe even grandkids go before i go, buat apa? i think even if i were rich, healthy and in every way normal at 120, tapi alone since everyone i love was gone, no need lah. better not live that long...

yvonne, don worry, if they put you in a straightjacket by the time you're 35, i come and rescue you, ok? i launch a One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest sort of revolution...

[Sila]

Hey Euj, living to a 120 can be fun... what if we can live to a 125 or 130. We would have seen the 20th, 21st and the 22nd centuries!!!!

dey, apalah?? 30 oso belum reach, talking about living to 120! slow down, dude!! :D

[dreamwh]

dey, apalah?? 30 oso belum reach, talking about living to 120! slow down, dude!! :D


one quarter of life gone la! the first 4 i cannot remember somemore....

[dreamwh]

the first 4 years i mean...

[Sila]

one quarter of life gone la! the first 4 i cannot remember somemore....

aiyah, if we improve with age, i don't think we're missing anything too important by not remembering the first 4 years of our lives, no? i have some basic images and snippets of this and that from that time and i think that's more than enough.

[Dope]

Wheyy.... 30 ain't that bad.. right .. we're all like vintage wines, we mature and taste better as we age.. horr... :) Life starts at 40, so we are still in our negative years.. so no worries, We all have fun first. Sree, if you are going to live up to 120 MAKE SURE you speak to Jac about retirement planning..hahaha.. you probably need it most. Oh well..to all those who hit the 3-0 happy belate birthday, KoChun especially, he always come in first.. oh well.. to those who are in their nines, keep it up.. happy forward birthday.. see ya.. gals & guys.. p.s Liverpool bought a Real Madrid reject... muahaha

[Susan Yu]

I have arrived!!! Maybe the fastest in our batch. Anyone dare to claim that he/she can beat me?
eh....yours..==.2nd Jan????...
....old man liau..... :p

[Sila]

eh....yours..==.2nd Jan????...
....old man liau..... :p

i thought he claimed he was only 17? :D

anyway, you are only as old as you feel. so some days i feel about 5, and others i feel about 80. so...that saying really doesn't help, does it?

[KoChun]

No, it doesn't. :)

[Sila]

eh, apa boleh buat..?

kochun, you feel any different hitting the big 3-0? any words of wisdom to share with your younger brothers and sisters?

[KoChun]

Nah, no different. Why so curious out of a sudden? You will join me pretty soon, right, Sila? :p

[Sila]

i am going to enjoy habis-habis the last 2 weeks of my twenties, ok? jangan lump me in with you yet... :D

[KoChun]

It's a matter of time, my friend. You cannot run away from the destiny!

[Sila]

hehehehe kicking and screaming nanti i will join you kochun. and then we can suruh our adik-adik in our class to do our bidding! muahahahaahaha

age before beauty, ya?

[Sila]

at least i know that after age 30, still can stay up late and forum. see, kochun is still up and anagramming at 1:35 AM

:D

[KoChun]

Ha ha, just solved one, another one to go.

Another year-mate turned 30 today. Welcome to the club, Ms Subathra Devi. At least I am not alone here anymore. Waiting for more members to join this 3-0 club, especially Sila.

[Sila]

[Sila]

i can't believe we are all turning 30 this year!!! pejam celik, pejam celik, suddenly we are 15X2 years old. the kids taking their SRP (or PMR or whatever the hell they call it now) were born the year we took ours. isn't that just something else?

[siewjang]

Happy 30th Birthday Su!

Now I'm damn depressed!

[euj]

now that we're facing up to being 3-0, and for some of us - we're already there, how does everyone feel about how their life is going? do you feel that you're on the right track? are you happy with where you're at?

[dreamwh]

Nope... I wanted to retire by 30!

[euj]

Nope... I wanted to retire by 30!
haha. glad to see that some of us were very realistic. :)

[dreamwh]

i'm gonna make it 32 now... a private jet by 35 will be a bonus

[JenX]

Happy Birthday Subathra :)

[euj]

i'm gonna make it 32 now... a private jet by 35 will be a bonus
i see that time has made you more realistic. NOT! ;)

[dreamwh]

look at my handle la, euj....

[dreamwh]

dreamwh = DreamWardHo!

[euj]

what does the Ward-Ho bit mean? so you believe in truth-in-labelling. :)

[dreamwh]

its something like Westwardho... instead of going west, i'm going towards my dream.... retirement!

[dreamwh]

and a McLaren F1, a private island off the coast of florence, a bloody huge yacht and a jet-helicopter....

[euj]

and a McLaren F1, a private island off the coast of florence, a bloody huge yacht and a jet-helicopter....
what about the non-financial/material goals?

[dreamwh]

ok... to do all those i'm gonna start my own religion. I believe i explained it to you earlier. That pyramid scheme thing.

and also a harem.

and i'll have a stray dog and cat sanctuary on my island.

[dreamwh]

and get married to Jennifer Love Hewitt

[euj]

and get married to Jennifer Love Hewitt
isn't she a bit too skinny? looks too much like a flamingo i reckon, except that she's not pink and doesn't have feathers.

[dreamwh]

she's got dimples... that'll do for me.

[euj]

she's got dimples... that'll do for me.
aiya. there are so many other girls out there with dimples...

[dreamwh]

look at my name again...

[euj]

look at my name again...
i understand, but why Love? there are so many others who would be great like catherine zeta-jones, elizabeth hurley, nicole kidman, natalie portman - hmmm...notice the similiarities?

[dreamwh]

natalie portman is my second choice... all the others are matrons

[dreamwh]

off course my first choice will be Aishwarya Rai

[euj]

natalie portman is my second choice... all the others are matrons
matrons?!?!? that's not very nice. i prefer to call them - real women...you should check out this aussie newsreader - sandra sully. she's forty-something, but she's so hot. HOT! HOT! HOT!

[dreamwh]

i don't mind Kylie though...

[euj]

i don't mind Kylie though...
yeah, there's something about her, but too skinny...

[dreamwh]

I think we are getting off-thread... murderators might be coming along anytime soon.

When you turning 30 Euj?

[euj]

I think we are getting off-thread... murderators might be coming along anytime soon.

When you turning 30 Euj?
haha...well, it is part of the discussion of being 30, but anyhow...i'm turning 30 on the 19th of May. i'll be in malaysia then for sila's wedding kenduri, so it'll be the first time for years that i'm spending it in malaysia and with some of the old ACS sitiawan buddies.

[dreamwh]

that's good man... then we can have a really big party bidding our twenties good-bye.

[siewjang]

look at my name again...
Dream, stop dreaming and get back to work.

Euj, it's almost 5.30, go home.

[euj]

that's good man... then we can have a really big party bidding our twenties good-bye.
yeah, it'll probably be in sitiawan but i'm not sure if we'll be there or in kl. depends on what sila's plans are, and pebbles' too.

[dreamwh]

Dream, stop dreaming and get back to work.

Euj, it's almost 5.30, go home.


i propose siewjang is made a moderator... she's in every thread anyway. And all the moderators thus far are guys, right. Let's see some equality here... What say you siewjang? You marah saya dengan euj apa.

it's not marah, it's care and concern. anyhow, i am home. i only live 500 metres from work.

[siewjang]

You marah saya dengan euj apa.
Where got marah? Saw your dreamy look only mar :o Soli, soli.

[dreamwh]

people joking la....

[siewjang]

it's not marah, it's care and concern. anyhow, i am home. i only live 500 metres from work.
True Euj. Concern! :)

Wah lucky bugger. So did you walk to work? Emm... can save on parking and petrol too.

[dreamwh]

at least siewjang is 30 and a mother... properly settled down. Caring husband who buys her stuff... like a 7260

[siewjang]

people joking la....
I'll start to put every smiley face in my posting next time :)

[euj]

True Euj. Concern! :)

Wah lucky bugger. So did you walk to work? Emm... can save on parking and petrol too.
my apartment is on the other side of the river, so usually i drive in cos my work provides with a car park, but the rare occassions i don't drive in. i walk to the ferry and then take a 6 minute ferry ride.

[siewjang]

at least siewjang is 30 and a mother.
True. That is why retirement is ahead of me now.
.. properly settled down.
Siao. This is the beggining of the ending point. Still waiting for kids to finished schooling and I can use up all my EPF fund :)

.. Caring husband who buys her stuff... like a 7260
Buy me stuff cos I'm angry and refused to talk to him for 1 whole week.
*&%$@* still charging the battery in my office.

[siewjang]

Euj, if I were you, I will walk to the office. By the time you waited for the ferry to arrive and the 6 minutes ride, I'm in the office drinking my cuppa. Hehe, plus morning walk is good for 30's uncle.

[euj]

haha. i'm not 30 yet, but since work provides me with a spot i feel obliged to use it. anyhow, i play hockey on wednesday nights and do take walks with my dogs and gf.

[euj]

ok. i have to go now. having dinner at indra's place. see you all tomorrow!

[Sila]

what's for dinner, euj? ;)

dream, when do you turn 30? march-ish? i forget la, just tembak only so don't get mad if i'm wrong ya?

aside from dream's possible delusions of grandeur, i think it's good to still have dreams, no? not be so cynical as to have given up all the wonderful dreams we may have had while we were teenagers?

as to me, i am happy about where i am in my personal life. i feel blessed about it. work is good, i love my job, but i will have to find something else soon because weekly travel is hard. and that is about what i have to do, i travel about 45 out of the 52 weeks in a year. so am at a point where i can either get a job which is sort of in the realm of what i know, or i can look around and make a career change. so i donno yet which one i will do when the time comes. it is difficult to switch careers though, at this point where i have a mortgage and dependencies, as you all might understand. but at least i know whatever i decide my friends and family will still be there with me ;)

[dreamwh]

yes sila... i turn 30 on March 18th.

Vanessa Willams will be 42 on the same day, Queen Latifah will be 35 and Rudolph Diesel would have been 147 if he were still around... good or not.

[siewjang]

ok. i have to go now. having dinner at indra's place. see you all tomorrow!
Do you have to announce so loud here, Euj? Are you trying to make Ray or Dream jelous?

So, what's for dinner? Who's cooking? Who does the dishes? Who take the trash out?... hehe... busybody. :)

[euj]

what's for dinner, euj? ;)

we didn't have time for desert cos she had to go off for her indoor soccer game. ;) she cooked some sort of sliced potato thing with parsley and salami. not sure what it's called. it was pan fried. was ok. no complaints when i don't have to cook it myself.
i think i'm going through a soul searching time right now with the separation and all that. i guess it's a god time to re-evaluate what i actually want. one of the most important things is to figure out whether to settle down for good in perth or move on somewhere else like US, Melbourne, Sydney or Europe or maybe even Hong Kong...

[siewjang]

..... one of the most important things is to figure out whether to settle down for good in perth or move on somewhere else like US, Melbourne, Sydney or Europe or maybe even Hong Kong...
Do you have to go that far? :(

[euj]

Do you have to go that far? :(
i guess it's about going where it would be good for banking. either that, or if i want more lifestyle, then i'd probably settle down in perth.

[siewjang]

Eversince we are so near to the Big Three-O, kinda lazy to hop around. Urgh.... typing resume at 3-0 and walking from company to company with the certificate.

[dreamwh]

for me, soul searching has to be by the sea... some where like noumea.

[Sila]

eh, dream, where's noumea? am i just being blur?

[euj]

eh, dream, where's noumea? am i just being blur?
isn't it somewhere in the pacific?

[Sila]

dunno, s'why i asked. i know there's a place in hawaii called waimea. so maybe?

[dreamwh]

Noumea is the capital of New Caledonia. I think its a French Colony or something la... My friends went there for honeymoon 5 years ago. I have been wanting to go ever since. I heard its an expensive place... and people there speak mostly french.

[Sila]

ah, i see. well, dream, i dunno about noumea, but if you ever go to hawaii there are some really cool spots there too. i jumped in the surf on the north shore of oahu, got POUNDED like hell man (that's where the huge world class surfer competition waves are). i mean POUNDED. right down into the sand. got so much sand in my suit i had about half a bucket on the ground in the bathroom when i was changing... never saw waves that big before, just being routine there. but on oahu, you must go to hanauma bay where the natural corals are just friggin' amazing. and people speak english! :D

[Sila]

dream, maybe can go for your 30th birthday? :D

[euj]

plus, you could try Western Australia. it's got some of the top beaches in the world. absolutely stunning!

[Sila]

euj, i will make it to oz someday (maybe vin and i can come someday) so if you're still there, will you take us around?

[euj]

euj, i will make it to oz someday (maybe vin and i can come someday) so if you're still there, will you take us around?
you know what? even if i'm not living there anymore, if we plan it properly, i'll fly there and take you guys around! so exciting! you have to make it. i've been all around australia for work, so i know it a fair bit.

[Sila]

hehe! in that case, i will certainly try to see what i can do. maybe next time i plan an extended trip to malaysia can do a hop to oz... (wheels are turning...) this time around will be a bit difficult, since the first coupla weeks i'm in malaysia we have to run around and do a gazillion wedding prep things. and after i want to chill out and show vin around our beautiful malaysia (tioman? redang?). but before we turn 3-0 plus 3-0, i will certainly try to get to oz!

[Mac24]

[siewjang]

A friend trying to comfort me with this when I've just hit 30... !!

This is for all you girls 30 years and over.... and for those who are turning 30, and for those who are scared of moving into their 30's...AND for guys who are scared of girls over 30!!!!

This was written by Andy Rooney from CBS 60 Minutes. Andy Rooney says:

As I grow in age, I value women who are over 30 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:

A woman over 30 will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think.

If a woman over 30 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And, it's usually something more interesting.

A woman over 30 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of 30 give a hoot what you might think about her or what she's doing.

Women over 30 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.

A woman over 30 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend because she doesn't trust the guy with other women.


Women over 30 couldn't care less if you're attracted to her friends because she knows her friends won't betray her.

Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a
woman over 30. They always know.

A woman over 30 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of younger women. Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 30 is far sexier than her younger counterpart. Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk if you are acting like one! You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.

Yes, we praise women over 30 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed hot woman of 30+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year-old waitress.

Ladies, I apologise. For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free". Here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage, why? Because women realise it's not worth buying an entire Pig, just to get a little sausage

[KoChun]

Haha... I like the last paragraph in particular. :laugh:

[Mac24]

But remember to get the little sausage ...Mmmm u need to get a perfect pig..mah....

anyway.... just droping in a few lines... just to day long live all the 92er's... :D

hehheeeee we all will be hitting the Big 3 by end of these year.... so make sure all have done...whatevr u left for the past year before u move forward..!

Points to ponder....!! :cool:

[Lava Gal]

couldn't agree more. if i ever have kids, i'm gong to teach them all that shit i've learnt over the year...
1) if you like a chick, tell her. don't worry about rejection, it's a numbers game.
2) don't worry about what other people think - do whatever you want as long as it doesn't harm others.
3) when working with tools, if you have to force it, you're not doing it right.

are u sure its onli TOOLS, euj??
i tink working with PEOPLE & SITUATION oso can be included here

[Mac24]

Any one thought about people and situation.... Mmmmmmm there is a lot of changes in life.... you can never expet...!

Like having a girlfriend in 1992 and after seeing her almost 13 yrs later u found out that she is married with kids and you move on with life....!

That's y we always cherish the moment we had in past years coz... it can never be the same now......
