Your Thirties
November
10
I’ve just crossed out of my twenties and into my thirties. It’s a very strange place to be. I still feel 19, but a much much smarter 19. My girlfriends all say the same thing. How come we’ve all *just* come to the place where we feel like our life has begun?
For me, I thought it was due to moving back and forth from the US to Canada a couple of times and only now being settled in one place, but they haven’t done any such thing, so maybe that’s simply what your thirties are for?
ps. Lol! this whole post is a mistake. I meant to hit “save to draft” and flesh it out later but hit “post” instead. I think I’ll just leave it now. Wisdom, indeed.

Welcome to the other side! I remember when I crossed over – I believe I was coping with a couple of cosmos and almost – almost kissed a guy who said he thought I was 21. What a line!
crossing over was/is pretty scary for me. A little painful too. I’m not sure if I feel much like a smart 19 year old. I feel very conscious of how much I do not know, how much I haven’t done, how undisciplined and selfish I can be and how much I want to hang on to time. Yet I am thankful for this consciousness because it motivates me to be better, something I didn’t really think about as much in my 20s. I’m more willing to seek out help and to grapple with hard things, though it is still not easy.
Congratulations on crossing over, it’s one heck of a ride if nothing else.
Enjoy your thirties!! ….Forties come very quickly! haha I think turning 30 bothered me worse than turning 40 for some odd reason! Anyway, hope you got to do something fun for your big day!
Congrats & Happy Birthday! Welcome to Club Thirty-Something! I’m loving my 30s and I think you will too. I just crossed over as well, 4 1/2 years ago, lol!
Really, your 30s aren’t so bad. I’m now (gasp) mid-thirties and still thinking life is better now than in my 20s. Sure, I had fun in my 20s, but I definitely am still having fun now, albeit more grown up fun. My life has really come together in the last 5 years or so. Bought a house. Bought a dog. Bought furniture that didn’t previously belong to someone else. Had a baby. Have another on the way. Life is good! I hope you celebrate and embrace 30. It’s really not so bad!
happy to be the club with all of you! sounds like my experience isn’t all that different or weird. i’m LOVING life right now. my 30s have begun and I feel most alive. it’s the number i’m niggling over but… who cares? we’re alive!!!
You hit Post instead of Save Draft? Senility begins in your thirties too, I guess!
