C'est la vie

I turned 29 two weeks ago. And now 30 waits. A label. A marker. A turning point of sorts. And so, as always, I turn to the web to tell me things I don't always need to know:


You've Experienced 48% of Life

You have a good deal of life experience, about as much as someone in their late 20s.
You've seen and done enough to be quite wise, but you still have a lot of life to look forward to.


I like that the blog test thinks I'm wise. For that is a stamp I really could not have done without. Especially coming off the WWW.

So, here's to life. And here's to upgrading from 48% to at least 80% by achieving some of the things on my to-do list (in no apparent order):

  • Write a book
  • Learn another language
  • Justify my driver's license by actually driving
  • Be a parent

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You know, I can't wait to be 30. Told father A that I want 30 presents. Does turning 30 sound appealing now?

Iz: It's been ages since we heard from you! About feeling better, it depends -- is Father A going to buy 30 presents for me too?

Candy: Heh heh! Ok. Then the plan is shelved! Now go change your diapers!

Aunty G and Eve's Lungs: Thanks! Hope it all happens too!

I agree with you. A lot of rubbish. At 32 I'm supposed to have 68% of experience & maturity beyond 40! Doesn't leave much to look forward to, does it? Rubbish is right!
