I turn 27 tomorrow and I’ve been dreading it. I need to really enjoy today…my last day in my “mid-twenties”. I don’t really have any reason to not want to turn 27 other than it sounds really old to me. Late twenties just doesn’t sound as much fun as early twenties or even mid twenties!
Kevin told me to be thankful that I’ve lived to 27, and so I’m trying to take his advice and be more optimistic....so here it goes....
I have a wonderful boyfriend, amazing friends and family, great job, loveable dog, and a beautiful view from my apartment… what more could a 27 year old want? I’m grateful that I don’t have the responsibility of children or a mortgage yet. I like not being completely tied down and having the ability to go out when I want. I’m thankful that my boyfriend works in the live music industry since going to shows is my favorite thing to do--it’s like therapy for me…live music keeps me sane. I’m glad I have great friends scattered all over the country, so no matter where I go, I can always find someone I know. I’m glad I’m in good health and not fighting any cancer or disease like more and more people my age seem to be doing these days.
Ok, so maybe turning 27 doesn’t suck so much after all. Cheers to another year of living the good life!
