The Four Stages of Life

After talking to an older member of the press that I met at an event last week, I came to the realization that each stage of life can be identified easily, depending on what you talk about when you meet friends.

Stage One : Youth

Friend : Hey, you got watch that (insert) show on TV or not? What football team are you supporting? Hey, got tution today? Are you still playing (insert) I finished the last level yesterday. Haiyah, Mr (insert) class is so difficult, can I copy your homework? etc.

Stage Two: Young Adulthood

Friend: Hey, I haven't seen you since school lah, how you been? What college are you going to now? Wahlaueh, got girlfriend already lah? Never intro. Oi, you're almost 25, go get a GF/BF lah. So, gonna find a job already? etc.

Stage Three : Adulthood

Friend: So, when you gonna get married hah? (insert) getting married next week, never suspected he'd be the first one hahaha. Wah, got kids already? got photo or not? How many? So, where you working now? etc etc.

Stage Four : When you know you're getting old.

Friend: Your kids grow up already leh, so when are they gonna have your grandkids?
