There are milestones in our lives. First its the baby steps. Kindergarten. Jr. High. Then High School. Your first crush, your first kiss. Your first date. Graduation. Marriage. Babies.
Turning 30.
Yes my friends, I have hit the big thirtieth birthday milestone. I have to admit. I have had some rather weird emotions regarding the 30th birthday. Part of me says its just another day, another year in the long grand scheme of things, it isn't that big of a deal. Nor is it really that old. But the other part of me says shit..I am thirty. I am supposed to have my life together by now. Thirty is something. Thirty is big....Thirty is something to celebrate. I mean in your twenties you can make stupid mistakes and get away with it. You can live life to the fullest. However.
When your thirty, its like you are entering the actual grown up world. You are no longer, that young anymore. Sure they say that 30 is the new 21 But is it really? People look at you differently in your thirties than they did in your twenties. You are a grown up now. Teenagers think your old, people in their twenties think your not hip anymore.
Its all a strange thing.
But alas I am 30. And there is nothing I can do to change it.
birthdays,
me
