It's 1:00 AM and I am looking out from my office window, I like staring at the thousand lights that lit up the city at dark. It's late, but I can still hear, trucks, cars still passing by.
Je sui fatigue', in a little while I will be on my way home. Another day is done.

Manila is just another city that never sleeps, but this tired little girl needs to.

DO YOU FEEL THAT YOU ARE GETTING OLD????


Let's see. The majority of students in universities today were born in 1984.... They are called "youth".

For them, they have never heard of "We are the World, we are the children..."

And the "Uptown Girl" they know is by Westlife not Billy Joel.

For them, there have always been only one Germany
and only one Vietnam.

AIDS exists since they were born.



CD exists since they were born.



Michael Jackson is a white guy .

John Travolta is always round in shape and
they can't imagine how this fat guy could be a god of dance.

They believe that Charlie's Angels and Mission
Impossible are just new films out last year.

They can never imagine a black and white screen for
a computer.

They never knew Pac-Man.

They can't believe a black and white television ever existed and they don't even know how to switch
on a TV without a remote control.

And they never understand how could we go out without a mobile phone when we were in university...

Let's check if we're getting old...

1. You understand what was written above and you smile.
2. You need to sleep more, until afternoon, after a night out.
3. Your friends are getting married.
4. You are always surprised to see small children playing comfortably with computer.
5. When you see teenagers with mobile phones, you shake your head.

6. You developed more and more feelings about your work. It's now your life.
7. You spend less and less time talking on phone with your friends daily.
8. You meet your friends from time to time,talking about the good old days, repeating again and
again all funny stories your experienced together.

Ha..ha...ha....Yes, I'm getting old too.

"Nothing is free, not even age. Age is the fee
God charges for life"
