January Tales

It's January 18th. Time has really flown but that's always a good thing in my books. So, I've turned 30 years old :) That morning of my birthday, I was up early and looked at my watch, 5 something in the morning. No, it can't be happening ! you know when everyone tells you that you don't need that much sleep as you age and your just think nah, that's ridiculous and a long way coming, well, that creeped up on me slowly and came to reality. I was up way too early, and it freaked me out all right. But, I'm happy to inform you all or rather I'm just happy in my own little world that it just happened on my 30th birthday morning :)
 -  I still feel great only after around 8 hours of sleep and on top of the world at 10 hours :-)  wiii that's kinda a young thing no?!
Turns out, I was hyped out for my cocktail birthday party. It turned out so well. I feel so blessed. After, celebrating again these recent years on a bigger scale with Luis, I don't think I'll stop..for a very long time. I think I'm addicted to my birthday parties like this, the adrenaline of it all. It's the one chance I get to have people all in my place celebrating me or rather the fact that I'm aging  !!
Why age alone right? Exactly.
So how does it feel being 30? Well, I'm generally happy. I think I owe much of it to my 20s though -  my close circle of friends at uni,  I found my soulmate ( yes, I believe in soulmates, and mine is a hottie), the invaluable work experiences and the years at Dunners, Melbourne & Sydney - the years I actually had a lot of say in who I actually wanted to be, it all turned out okay, Thank God.  Well, I believe life's about making life decisions all the time and for me the great importance of it all happened in my 20s, especially since I lived away from my parents. Now it's all over! No, of course I don't mean that, I was just joking :) Life can't be stagnant and non-evolving.  I feel now at 30, I get to develop myself a bit more, it's my time. A lot of people say 20s are for themselves. I thought about this but, I can't seem to agree.  I think the 20s, at least for myself, I spent a lot of time getting things done for others, loving the approval I got from my professors, friends and parents. The simplest explanation to this - assignments for uni rather than finishing a book :) Now at 30, whatever I do, it's because it's going be my choice.  Maybe, I'll take up a photography class, with my handy Canon G12 which I love. Always wanted a personal trainer too or maybe I'll just spend days at an end just reading :)
How can I forget now that I'm almost well?! health is by far, my ultimate goal,
 it really puts life in good perspective for me.  
Oh, being 30 feels comfortable, promises calm and everything I hoped for. Loving it.
