I have officially been 30 years old for 30 days, so here is my 30 day review…let’s just say it has been a big month.
My first day began with champagne and a perfect day with Martin in France. Since then I have become an aunt, I have run 10.5 miles (in preparation for my upcoming half marathon in a few days), I watched my cousin get married and I made a few key career changing decisions.
But in reality, all of those things were mere blips on the path of life when compared to what happened just before the 30 day mark. It was a truly defining moment, one where I can look back and say, yes, that was the day I finally felt mature enough to call myself 30. Thursday evening, after a long day of work and German class, I intentionally opted to head to Walgreens to buy toilet paper instead of heading directly to happy hour with friends and plans to steal a roll from the bar later. I have come so far from my twenties!
