I didn't self-destruct

It was my birthday last week - tuesday to be exact, and I was worried with the turning of age I might self destruct. I am nearing my self given expiry date (the date when I assume I will expire for most of Gods intended purposes)and always worry that this might be the year age catches up with me. At 27, I still look a healthy 12, and know that at somepoint I will have to start looking my age or at least my age braket (20-30). I was plesantly surprised again the morning of my birthday that I had not aged 15 years worth of looks overnight. That morning will scare the hell out of me.....prolly the boy next to me as well. Alot is to be accomplished during the year of 27. As usual I have an unrealistic to do list that will never be finished. I will finish school - finally, get a job, become a participating adult in society and move again to accomidate such job. These are the biggies for 27. The small list goes on for days. I am going to try to take this year more slowly and to not stress the small stuff. I am a stresser - so that will be a huge accomplishment for 27.

I still love the comment we got last weekend at Oktoberfest, "What school do you guys go to?"

Hope the drive home was not too boring.

happy belated b-day.

i feel like i expired when i turned 21... but apparently i still wake up everday, so i'm wrong. doesn't mean i don't expect it to happen tomorrow.

at least you'll become a contributing member in society. i'm working on my apps now to go onto 4 more years of school. some days i don't even know why.

good luck with your to-do list. hope you don't procrastinate too much =].

Ahhh it's 27. No need to have those adult goals... I am 30 in February so I don't need any more people setting the bar high.

I have so many people to watch not self destruct before me that I don't worry about that...

Damn you 12 year old looking people. Once my pal Becca T and I were going to a concert and the security guard guy let me go through and then said to here "but i'll need to see YOUR ID..."

Curses to him.

Sounds like my list of things to do for my 27th year. I won't get all of them done, but I can sure try. And looking young is sometimes a good thing. I have the same problem, and still get IDed everywhere I go. And when people guess my age, they always guess at least 5 years too young. Oh well. :)

Happy birthday! :) I get where you're coming from...we all have a scary age where we what a bunch of things done by. And we all have life to-do lists...but what I tell myself is that things will work out the way they're supposed to work out. It will all be ok! And if not, well, there's always alcohol :P
