perspective v2

Log start: 9:48pm March 31st, 2010

I'm old.
It took me a whole week to realize this but the fact is... i'm old...
i am now the youngest of the old people... hmm... the next landmark age for me looks like 25, because then i can rent cars... wtf, lol.

But seriously, being 21 ranks up on my list of "AWESOME ACHIEVEMENTS"
i mean... dude.. i can buy alcohol, LOL. I went to a liquor store earlier this week to buy something for my friend's 21st. the lady at the register didn't even card me!
seriously >.> when i'm under 21, they automatically card, but when i turned 21, no one cards me :3
but then there are times like today, when i went to Mitsuwa with my brother, i baught some sake. this asian lady was like "can i see your ID?" "OH! your birthday just passed! so young" "is this for you?" "YOU DRINK!?" "for reeeaaaalll?"

seriously.... SERIOUSLY? i know this trick. this is the imfamous asian women over 40 trick that stabs you multiple times with guilt to make you think your life over again. in some sense, it was almost like she was trying to say "NAH IDIOT, YOU'RE TOO YOUNG!" and trying to deny me the alcohol, but in a legal sense, she isn't able to.
it worked. i felt guilty. BUT MY BIRTHDAY WAS LAST WEEK! i'm not going to let her stop me from buying alcohol l0l. and besides, the united states is already in the top 5 countries worldwide to have such a high age restriction on the purchase/consumption of alcohol. when i went to china last winter vacation, my 16 yrold cousin went into the corner store and baught beer. i was like wuuuuuuttttttt. so i'm not going to let guilt take me over LOL

age is just a number. i know 50 yr olds who wears baggy pants, shades, and does everything an 18 yr old would do. i know a 21 yr old who has random pains in his body and drinks whiskey, i had one of my 12 yr old swim students lecture me on life once. (i made her swim more than the others because she started to get annoying, LOL)

im bored... 6 minutes remaining until i finish downloading this TVB game show so i'll try and think of things to write about x_x

life is what you make of it. a spoon can be a fork if you're lazy enough to walk to the kitchen. or in my case, an empty gas tank is a never ending mystery of when i'll completely run out of gas and fail, LOL.

i don't know where i'm getting with this post >.>
so i'll end it with a nice picture of a cherry blossom that i took during my trip this past weekend to Washington D.C. for the cherry blossom festival! yay!
