No, it’s not my cat. She will have hers in April. I just like pictures of cats so I put one in here :) No, it’s actually me! And I’m turning 30 today! Can you believe that? I certainly cannot. My mental age doesn’t go further than 13-14 years old and yet here we go, I’m crossing that scary line.
I used to dislike my birthdays. But really, you can’t blame me! Starting from the first birthday party I remember (which was when I was 8 I think) there were all kinds of nasty things going on. Like one girl threw a toy at another girl and hurt her eye. Or like someone spreading rumours about me behind my back. Or it was just awkward and boring: a bunch of people sitting at a table, eating, drinking and then having problems communicating. Was it me or was there something wrong with January, 31?
Anyway, since I decided I was not that much of a people person anyway things got considerably better :) Now I just don’t do birthday parties, no one is injured and everybody’s happy, including me :) And now I love this day because I get to pamper myself and do whatever I want, guilt-free style. My inner critic shuts up for 24 hours. Wonderful!
The only thing that I still find sad is that with each birthday I realize time is passing by. I don’t normally pay attention to that. I do today. How many years have I still got? Will I be able to do everything I planned before I die? Will there be something good left after I’m gone? These are the questions that worry me. Because when I think about my dreams, I often put them aside saying “I still have enough time, now I need to concentrate on other things”. But the problem is, I don’t have that much time… so I should really do my best to use it fully.
But anyway… Happy Birthday, Ania! :-)
Happy 30th Birthday! I’m the same, would much rather not bother with the celebrations. I used to like going, but now I’d much rather have a pampering session and some yummy food, inside! I think about those questions too, I think deep down most people do :) Have a great day!!! xxx
Happy birthday, Ania! I sincerely hope you enjoy your special day of pampering yourself. :)
I pretty much hate when my birthday rolls around. This may seem odd and pathetic, but I usually cry at least once. If I try treating it as any other day, I get upset. And if I try to spend the day with others, I still get upset. It’s like I can’t be satisfied or content on my b-day, and I just want it to end as quickly as possible. Hopefully, you and the majority of people in this world have no clue what I’m talking about!
Holy crap! Ania you don’t look 30! o_O i’d never have guessed that! Happy birthdaaaay!!
I have a clue but I am no longer sad on my birthday. I guess it comes with age :) Probably when I will be 60, I will be so glad to be alive I’ll have a party without any problems :) Right now, I prefer celebrating the quiet way, first with my boyfriend, and then with a couple of best friends (and already a couple of best friends feels like a huuuge party and I’m stressed about it!)
Yeah, well, a couple of those plastic surgeries and I’m like 18 again lol. Well, I’m an oldie, can’t help it ;) But I’m young at heart :D How old are you?
Thank you so much Dana! I was really pleased to find your comment here :)
@ShoegazeAndCats – I used to have the same kind of thoughts. :)
Aniu, wszystkiego najlepszego, starczy Ci czasu na spełnienie wszystkich marzeń, tylko zacznij od teraz. :)
That’s probably why you look so young then! I’m 22.

Happy birthday! i hope you have a great day! :)
Dziękuję kochana :) Nie powiem, że tydzień urodzinowy był najlepszy w moim życiu… no ale na szczęście już minął. Dalej już będzie tylko lepiej :)
Wrong! Now you are 23, hihi. But with your make-up skills you have nothing to worry about. You will look 22 even when you are 66 ;)
Na pewno! :)
