My 41st Birthday Wishlist: Gifts for the Gamer in Me

We’ve survived another trip around the sun, and here I am, getting ready to turn 41! It feels like just yesterday I was adjusting to being 40, and now I have to start coming to terms with “early forties”—yikes! 😅 Looking back at 2024, what a year it has been. From big global events (AI taking over the world, but thankfully not my Spotify playlists yet!) to personal milestones (yes, I’m still the gaming, content-making, TikTok-analyzing, J-Pop-loving me). Oh, and let’s not forget the wild ride in 2024, the president election, Gaza, Trump winning election, to all the viral events like Miftaf, agus, and everything in between. But hey, amidst all the chaos, one thing remains consistent: my annual birthday wishlist! 🎉 As some of you might’ve already seen on your Facebook notifications, my big day is on January 16, 2025. Yes, I’m turning 41! Shocking, I know—I’m aging like fine wine, or maybe like a well-loved video game console. 🎮

So here’s the deal: if you’re feeling generous, feel free to send me a gift. If not, your heartfelt prayers and well wishes will work wonders too—no loot boxes required. And please, no pressure; I’m not a Shopee flash sale. 😉 Thank you in advance for being part of my journey, and for sticking around through all my quirks and roller-coaster adventures. Here’s to making 41 as memorable (and meme-worthy) as possible! as for the wishlist, here you go…

1. Alright, world, I’m putting in my order for a wife! 😅 Looking for a lovely lady who’s smart, funny, and shares my faith (or is open to learning more). Bonus points for an oriental or Japanese look and a height that’s shorter than mine. If you’ve got a match in mind, don’t hesitate to introduce us. Or, if you’re feeling extra generous, send up a prayer. Either way, I appreciate the support! 🙏

2. Leveling up! 🚀 Hoping to land a new gig with lots of travel, a cool boss, and awesome coworkers. Feeling blessed and excited. If you’ve got any secret job openings or positive thoughts to spare, please share. Thanks in advance! 🙏
