10 years ago if you had asked me where I would be when I turned 25, I would have had a very different idea of where I am now.
View from 15 of 25:
- A steady, long term, loving relationship with a wonderful guy
- Matching underwear and bra sets
- My own apartment, decorated like the inside of a Pottery Barn
- A steady, well paying job I love
- Hosting dinner parties and talking about current events
View from 24 and 363 days of 25
- A steady, long term, loving relationship with Doctor Who on Netflix
- Old bras, and more holes in my underwear by the day. Some saved for special occasions.
- Living with my high school roommates, in the room I came home from the hospital in, decorated by me in the 8th grade
- Severally underemployed and applying to anything and everything
- Suggesting a bar night and talking about how we wish our lives were different
I could go on, but I don't want to seem like I'm complaining. I chose to go to Australia and spend every available cent to me on an amazing experience. But there are a few things about my life that I thought would just be, well easier when I got to this milestone.
I can't wait to see what the future holds, the twists and turns that come with it and how I spend the rest of my 20s.
Here's to the next 25 years! Happy birthday to me!
