32, and proud of it!

Happy Birthday to me,
Happy Birthday to me,
Happy Birthday dear Andrew/Biff/Cheuk Fai,
Happy Birthday to me.

Pleased to announced today that my body has again, gone through ANOTHER cycle of the Sun - this in turn has killed off a few more brain cells in my brain, caused some more blood cells to switch off and slowed my heart down a few more beats.

Actually, being in my early 30's hasn't bothered me as much as I thought it would - other people i know my age have been quite depressed and see it as a curse in their live.

To be honest, I'm bloody happy that I reached this age!

When you think of all the dangers you face in your life - all the potential risks that in a mere flutter, can take away all that you hold precious, you'd realise that life is such a miracle.

I mean, lets start at the beginning.

Starting with fertilisation - geez, think of how small a sperm is - its microscopic! Now, think about how far it has to go up the vagina wall to reach the fallopian tube - its like miles away if you're the size of a sperm. And if it reaches its target, it has to bind and fuse itself with the egg in the woman's womb.

And within this fusion of sperm and egg, lies a future breathing person - one who's dreams have yet to be shaped.

When I was an baby, my parents were quite worried about me - i was very overweight (i was so fat, i couldn't sit up straight!), I was prone to fevers, and I had loads of skin rashes. I think I must have seriously given my mother a load of sleepless nights!

If you know my mum, you'll know she worries about EVERYTHING! :)

Yet, I managed to survive it all. Later in my teens, i was diagnosed with colour blindness, and my eye sight had gotten pretty short sighted, yet it was nothing that couldn't be fixed (despite Johnny's jokes about my telescopic glasses! Git!)

And through all that, I'm sure I must have crossed a thousand roads, driven my car hundreds of times and flown a few dozen times.

Yet I'm still around!

Hence, why I'm going to be celebrating my life and what I've done and achieved. Ok, I haven't gotten a masters in adult movie reviewing yet, nor have I driven a Ferrari, but er, I've managed to do other worthwhile things, which matter to ME :) Such as sit on a rollercoaster, or snorkel (er, don't say a word Johnny!), or to ski.

I want to quote that famous philospher, Mike Ch'ng (he of the white jeans fame)

"Most of our daily issues are nothing more than ripples on the ocean and moaning about it won't fix it. By all means, vent if you have do, but then do something about it!"

So, get on with your life - and most importantly, enjoy your life.

You're only 32, once in your life!
