今天中午吃拉麵時，聽到店家放的歌是那超老超熟悉的東京愛情故事主題曲，這首歌真的從小聽到大呀，聽到現在自己的年紀都比劇中的完治的年紀要大了。
最早看完治和莉香的時候，我是高中生？不，是小學生，當初好像沒看完整也沒看懂。後來不知道是在高中還大學初的時候又看，印象中偽19歲青年Hari當年是真teenager的時候覺得結局很悲，我卻覺得完治承受不了莉香那種逼得很緊讓人窒息的愛法，兩個人還是不要勉強在一起可能對彼此都好。
Anyway, 那時應該是看著完治這樣剛進社會工作前幾年的年輕上班族，努力打拼又有如此的精彩的愛情糾葛，想像將來自己25歲會有怎樣的際遇？會往了什麼目標努力？會遇到怎樣的莉香？
下午跟同學聊天時，揭露了自己的過去，先讀工程系再 computer science 再上班又回來讀書，現在26歲，硬是比他們兩個去年剛念完 Bachelor of Engineering 的大上 4+ 歲。他們都說看起來不像26歲，我開玩笑說 Because I'm Asian. :P 其中一人原本以為我24歲。
之前在公司同事是驚訝我年紀那麼小，通常以為我比實際年齡大幾歲，HR 有一次還特別跟我說原來我年紀這麼小啊，他整理員工資料才發現我是公司第二小的。三年過後，我現在反過來是在用年紀大來嚇人的。(add a mandatory comment here: 唉，歲月不饒人啊！)
寫到這裡懶得寫了，太晚了，要睡覺，而且也沒什麼好說的，只是要 point out, especially to the my fake 19 year-old friend, that we have reached the age we dreamed about (He probably dreamed more than I did :P). Things might not have come true. But hey, we don't live in 12 one-hour episodes.

Nice. It looks as you've got my point, Hari. Nostalgia.
Ha, I vaguely recall that you wanted to be a successful businessperson who has a top floor office by the age of 24 something. I can't remember whether you wanted a pretty assistant too.
Somehow, people in their teenage years often imagine they'll accomplish a lot by their mid-20s. Ha, we didn't consider what it takes to do that.
haha.. pretty assistant is a bonus :)
