How do you know you're old

How do you know that you're old? When do you actually find out that you're old? No no it is NOT when you can't run for five miles straight without feeling shitty about yourself because your knee hurts, you're running outta breath and etc. You know you're old when people that you know start having babies left and right!!! Your schoolmates, your classmates, your co-workers and everyone else you know. LOL.
YUP. You guessed right. I am feeling old or you could say I'm around "that age". LOL!!! It all started back in 2005. I found out one of my FSHN 185 (Introduction to Human Nutrition) classmates had a baby boy named Cody. Then in 2006, I found out that one of my classmates/T.A. was pregnant too!!! So sometime in 2006, another baby boy was born and his name is Kainoa. Finally in 2007, I got three pregnancy news. One was my classmate, two were my dorm mates. And guess what their due dates are so close as if they planned to get "sperminated" at the same time! So yea, two babies were born in July (same week), one was born in August. They are Archer, Kaia, and Kennedy.
Oh just when I thought the "baby boom" is over. I got a news that one of my ex coworker is pregnant AGAIN!!! Why did I capitalized AGAIN??? No big deal right to get pregnant? Well, she is capable of having babies alright. Her eldest son was born in 2004, second son was born in 2006, same month, in July. I seriously thought she won't be having more kids anytime soon. Who knows... Her third child's due date is April 2008.
I know there will be more babies to come. Just don't know from which ones of my lovely friends. =) To all the parents or parents to be out there, I wish you and your babies well!!!

Long term goals and short term goals.

What is your long term goal? What are your short term goals?? Do you even have one??? These are the questions I am contemplating right now. I want to set some goals for me.
Back in the days when I was still in school. One of our professors (I don't remember which class) asked us to list down some long and short term goals. It was hard for me to do so. I only had one goal at that time which is to graduate ^^ I made up the rest of it for assignment purposes. Alright my point here is. I have lived my life so far WITHOUT a plan. I didn't plan to attend certain college, I didn't plan to study overseas in Hawaii, I didn't plan to study Food Science and Human Nutrition, I just sorta "go with the flow". UNTIL NOW!!! That's why I said. I need goals, I need plans. I cannot live not knowing where I'll be next anymore. Well, at least this is how I feel now. :P
This is my plan. I will set small goals each day and accomplish them. Eventually I should get accustomed to having goals and maybe, just maybe I'll have a plan for my future....

PS. Been writing this blog for over an hour.... Got distracted. Lost my train of thought. Tried my best to convey my message.
