tween-ty

i was greeted by 18th birthday posts by my acquaintances on multiply and here we are celebrating our 20th. well dont count me in yet, i havent celebrated mine yet. well,  i don't fuzz about getting older. but i have to admit that ageing creams tends to get on to me sometimes.ageing creams start selling to the 20's. curse advertising. enlarged pores do surface on my face, its supposed to be a no big deal, and then here comes gretchen baretto. and the endorsers gets younger and younger, just take the girl from the pond's commercial who rants about her PUMPLE,ooops pimple marks pala. she used to apply concealer to hide those pumple marks. as much as i am tempted to promise, to swear that i will not buy those products, i think i am not brave enough to. someday i know i am going to be convince by those damn advertisements that i am ugly. haha. 

i remember, this is not a hate entry.

moving on.

my 2 kabarkadas in highschool just had their 20th birthdays. beyond the enlarged pores i noticed a lot of things that changed. and i guess i am fearful/ apprehensive/ careful of what the future changes will be. 

after a long time that we haven't seen each other, the official count of those of us who are actually somebody else's half (cheezy!) is 7/10, leaving me one of those who actually lavish the single life. some boyfriends we have learned to embrace into our bubble, some need to humble themselves to earn our approval.  

sure. having boyfriends is not the only entertaining change. sure.  may kotse na si nica. some of us will be graduating this academic year.  nicole was not yet a mom until this year. and who knows who's next in line, but somebody's gotta be next. some of us enjoyed the night outs , while others learn studying is the night life. as far as others are concerned, gsm blue, gin pomelo are the only alcoholic drinks; while others are well-acquainted with bloody mary, weng weng, tequila rose. sure. there will be changes. 

a few years back, there used to be no difference between these people

and us

its a mystery how we are all virtually of the same age, but some grow up faster than others. 

i still believe that its all in the isaw.
