i've grown older!

well finally got the promotion that seemed so elusive for so long. kaaachiinng! a little richer with the bonus to add on, life's looking up for Quarter 1 of 2010 already! :)

so at least 1 out of 5 of my new year resolutions are done! that leaves 2 (running), 3 (new language) 4 (religion) 5 (golf) left to work on. Damn i had to refer to my old post to refresh what they were. maybe i am growing old. what to do what to do!

on a random note, my colleague at work today randomly suggested that i should listen to beyonce's 'if i were a boy' [no prizes for guessing what she was implying of me] and interestingly i was just thinking about the exact same song yesterday.. so it got me thinking... would I do anything differently if i were a boy?

1. for sure, i already 'drink beer with the guys' (1st conclusion from the song) except maybe i drink more than the boys already

2. i would love to go bald, at least once (although i might understand guys' aversion to it after army).

3. i think i would be handsome. its so much easier to dress as a guy, just buy a nice polo shirt, shirts, berms, pants and you're done! no heels, skirts, pants, tops, dresses, makeup, accessories to worry about!

4. i would be a good boyfriend / husband. i don't believe in cheating!

5. i'll have to cut down on the bitchy / sarcastic / out-of-point comments that i make most of the time. darn.

6. i always wished to have washboard abs (girl / guy lines pretty blurred on this). but never had the willpower to accomplish this. imagine stepping into a club with someone who had this....

it doesn't even matter what else you (do not) wear! but apart from the abs, i think overly muscular guys are pretty scary, they always seem to be potentially abuse. or even if they have a hearty laugh and pat you on your back, i think a skinny girl will cough out her lungs.

ok this post is going nowhere but it seems like apart from some superficial things, there really isn't anything i would do that i can't already do now huh. i think going in circles and talking pointlessly most be one of the traits of going old. darn.

my colleague who sparked this thought suggested that she would have better aiming than her brothers in the toilet, haha! important lessons to teach your husbands / future sons!
