Reasons to be upset turning 24

No doubt, today is already September 1, 2009...

No matter what I do, time won't halt and I can't stop the inevitable...

What am I blabbering about?

Well for those who forgot and those who don't have any idea. My Birthday is 5 days from now. Five days! Imagine that. I only have four short days to enjoy being 23 years old. Then on the fifth day another year will be added on my precious age.

Why am I so hysterical about it?

FYI. I'm not that delirious about my age, just a little upset. I guess another "why" pops out from here. So let me explain my argumentations.

Reasons I'm upset turning 24:

- I still don't have a blooming career. This is my fault, however, I'm trying to steer my path on the right direction gradually. But still my future profession and financial stability is in jeopardy.

- I don't have any property that has my name on it. Who on earth doesn't want to own a piece of land and call it their own? People even kill because of land titles. Along with this is a house.

- I don't have the skill yet to drive any kind of transportational vehicle that is powered by gasoline. The only wheeled device I know to maneuver is the bicycle.

- I haven't been outside the country. Not even around the Philippines.

- I want to experience doing some extreme recreation. First on the list is bungee jumping!

- This last reason doesn't weigh much this present time, but will be a big factor once I've turned 30, that's 6 years from now. On olden times maiden that are on their mid-to-late 20's are being pressured to get married. Why? Because on those times the fruitful year of a maiden to bear a child is at the age of 18 to mid 20's. I'm not saying I want to get married and have children ASAP. You just can't erase the feeling of wanting to have a family that you can call your own. Maybe not right now, but I'm hoping a year or two before or after I turn 30.

For now these are the reasons I can think of.

September is really here..
