I'm Turning 30!
I’m turning 30 on September 28! Yay. 30 years of existence, of being. That’s a huge number. 30. It’s not like when I turned 20 where my recollections were of me being in high school and getting past my first years in college. My outlook for the next 10 years was of getting past college, landing myself a job, build a house, get married and have a kid. It felt like I was young, naïve yet ready to take on everything that was ahead of me. That was 10 years ago. Now, turning 30, my recollections are filled with me working on the other side of the planet, getting married, and having a kid. 10 years just seem to fly fast though not to say that I’m not happy or content with what I’ve accomplished and what has happened to my life the last decade. It’s actually the opposite. Life has been pretty good to me and I’ve accomplished more than what I was hoping for when I was 20. I got a great job which pays well enough for me to save and share my blessing with my family. I got married to the person I love and can’t imagine my life without. God has blessed us with a smart daughter who never stops talking. I still haven’t been able to build that dream house but could have if I wanted to. Otherwise, life’s been great!
Mavis has been “bugging” me with what I want her to cook for my birthday party. First, I’m not really into parties on my birthday. I can’t even remember the last time I had a party on my birthday. Second, I don’t want to trouble her or myself into preparing, cooking and cleaning up, especially on my birthday. I’d rather go out, have a quiet dinner with her and Xiane. As for a birthday present? Hmmm…let me see my list…
