A lot of people around me are turning 30 these days, its such a strange age. Im not sure how I feel about my up and coming brush with the big three-zero. Historically, 40 has been the age that people typically associate with a mid-life crisis but from what I hear.. 30 is the new 40.
I turn 30 in 4 months and Im not so sure I want to, perhaps Ill skip my birthday this year.. I just dont really feel like an adult yet, Ive been on my own for over 13 years so I have the self-sufficient part of life pretty much down. Its the part where Im supposedly an adult that gets to me, Im more prone to building a small fort with the pillows and blankets in my apartment if left to my own devices then balancing my budget or acting the part of a proper adult. In stead of thinking about mutual funds and retirement funds, Im day dreaming of a new tattoo or some other in the moment type event. I wonder when the adult part of my brain will kick in.
Im not that worried about the whole mid-life crisis aspect. I had the at 27 when I moved to a new city with just a suit case full of junk, based on a choice made by a dart board with 3 different locations on it 5+ years of running a porn shop in a small town tends to drive anyone a bit batty. I will however be glad to use the term mid-life crisis as a excuse to justify doing any amount of silly and fun things over the next year!
Anyone have any good goals to recommend I set for the next year of my life? What did/will you do during the thirtieth year of your life? Any suggestions?

I was thinking of this adult thing few days ago, because many of my friends are getting like that. You know, I really think It's not that big deal.. I mean live life as you want to, as long as you don't hurt people around you. All you need is being a minimum responsible to avoid that, that's all! I think some people won't grow up in their mind ever, and I don't think they are the unhappiest.................
