CEL for 30 sec, should I be worried?
Just recently, the CEL starts to light up when I first starts my car, then it goes away in about 30 secs, should I be worried?

I've had it happen when there were difficulties starting the car. After it happened (around 15mins), I tried to accelerate hard and I got a more permanent CEL due to a misfire. Probably fouled plugs.
I also suggest taking it in for a checkup. Maybe new plugs or a flash update will help.
