I used to be hypersensitive when it came to the topic of age. I used to be the youngest in the family, the youngest in the barkada, the youngest in RX, etc. Suddenly, I woke up one day, and I’m one of the giant sequoia trees in a forest of saplings. But I guess when I hit the big 4-0, I decided that I wouldn’t let it matter. In an entertainment industry obsessed with age, I just decided to own it, and use my “advanced” age to my advantage and use it as a shtick, as opposed to whining about something I have no power over.
