25 YEARS OF LIVING
Yesterday was my birthday, it was fantastic, full of friends and love and hope. Turning 26 is really scary for me, I feel like some kind of grown up, I'm not sure when that happened.
On such occasions I like to reflect on how far I've come, so. . .
10 THINGS I LEARNED IN MY 25TH YEAR OF LIFE:
1. Karokee is one of the funest (it's a word shut up) way to make a fool of yourself
2. I am really good at being diplomatic
3. When you see your siblings with their children it gives you a new found respect for them
4. Sex and the City is one of the best shows ever written for TV, despite it's faults
5. Felicity, however had a disappointing ending, shame
6. It is heart breaking when your convictions aren't true
7. Disappointment is the worst feeling to feel about someone
8. Life will always surprise you, and you can surprise yourself
9. You can not control any one else's actions (I re-learned that one)
10. There comes a time in your life when you learn to spot the true people and know to hold on to them, because they will bring you through, and the fakers aren't worth the energy
BONUS: 11. I am truly a valued person to a lot of people
And that feels amazing!

Gah! How did I miss this?!? Bad me...
Happy Belated Birthday, Natalia!

All the best,

Happy Birthday Tal! Don't worry, your 26th year won't be as scary as you think...I was definitely not a fan of turning 26 either...and so far, I don't feel like i've had to be more of an adult than I want to be...it's all about how old you feel, in the end (as cheesy as it is, it's true).

So glad you had a good night....and a bareable hangover;) As the old foagie of the group, I will tell you that 26 is a good year. Ms Ward is right - you are only as old as you feel lovie, so sleep till noon on the days you feel 80, and party all night when you feel 16!

Re: (3) When I see Tommy with his son, he isn't that gruff old boy I know him as -- he's Earl's dad, and that is something completely different.
(5) Urgh Felicity! (she writes, shaking her fist in the air)
(11) I definitely value you everyday.
