No gray hairs yet
As of 9:14 p.m. last night, I have been on this earth 29 years.
Let me think about that… 29 years. That feels like a long time. And just in case I wasn’t aware of how long it was, this weekend I had several people comment on just how OLD I am now. Thanks, guys.
But then I started thinking: With age usually comes wisdom, right? At least that’s what everyone tells me. And I mean, some days I feel really fucking wise already, so maybe I am going to be SO READY for 30. Imagine the state of enlightenment I’ll reach then.
So, in preparation for my hike to this summit of the unknown, I am setting goals. And thus I bring you, in no particular order, nine things I want to do before I am 30:
- Visit the Grand Canyon
- Meditate in complete silence, both internal and external
- Design a Web site from scratch (for myself)
- Stop biting my nails
- Learn to let things roll off my back—and keep them off
- Focus more on the positive and less on the negative
- Play three chords on a guitar (a whole song would be nice, but that seems like a rather lofty goal with all this other stuff I’ve got in mind)
- Take a photography class
- Get my issues with my dad off my back
I’ll keep you updated.
Happy, Happy to you!
29 was a glorious age. The one I’m at ain’t bad. You know, the being alive thing and all.
Woot and Coolness to you today.
Happy Belated Birthday!
The first step to achieving those goals is writting them down. I think you will see that once they are written down, they just seem to happen! Of course, Biting your Nails may be a tough one. I have been fighting with that one for years.
I thought of you on Sunday, but stupid me forgot to program your new cell # and couldn’t call you–SORRY!
Happy Belated Birthday!
A great way to stop biting your nails is to get a manicure. It helps the nails grow faster and it’s impossible to bite them with nail polish on them. You can usually get a manicure for $10-$12, and maybe in a month or two you’ll be over your habit and be able to give yourself a manicure!
