The wrong side of 20s

Ok, I'm officially on the wrong side of the prime 20s. Been three weeks odd since I cleared that threshold. Amazing how fast the years zip by once we are no longer 'minors' in the eyes of the common law. This 'phenomenon' is exacerbated when one has completed varsity education and embarked on one's career - the years practically flash by. Well, to add salt to injury, what exactly do I have to show for me crossing that threshold into the wrong side of my 20s? NOTHING!!! Lamentable huh? .

Interestingly, I dropped by my Friendster account a few days back just for the lark of it. Sometime ago, it was so hot......kinda like the Six Degrees of Separation thingy a few years ago. As fads go, the initial brouhaha fizzled out for me. So I was looking through my contacts, and I realised quite a few of them have already settled down (blissfully attached or married). Guess we are at that 'marriageable' age.

Been in my new bank for a while, and I daresay it's been all right thus far. My peers in my department are a great bunch of people......when we get together for meals, it's practically a riot. I am so glad I have managed to settle in rather comfortably, thank God for His blessings.

Realised my older colleagues have a penchant to 'suss' out partners for me. Somehow, when they realise I am a swinging single, they seemed to take it upon themselves to 'bounce' suggestions off me on who would be a good consideration. And not only my colleagues, friends from days of yore in secondary school and my cousins are also jumping into the thick of it. And this 'matchmaking' notion seems to be the flavour of the season.....even my church pastors are
'concocting' plans for the singles in the group. Nice to know one has such a strong support group of people who care about one's singlehood. I mean, apart from the fact that it seems funny at times, but the underlying genuine concern is rather touching. All together now, awww.....

Oh well, enough of my meanderings. Till the next time then.....
