Tomorrow, I turn 28. Yep - it's my birthday! Funny thing is though, really I have felt 28 for the past couple of months, but only because when people ask my age, I'll say 'almost 28'. Sadly, now I am about to say 'ta ta' to 27, I kind of wish I had shown it a bit more love before it was gone.
Forever.
Most years I have felt fine about turning another year older. In fact, I've looked forward to it. It probably doesn't hurt that Adam is 8 1/2 years older than me. Whatever age I am, I still feel young!
But this year. It's different. And I can't tell you why!
I think it's something to do with feeling as the 28 year olds should know more than what I feel I know. That they are responsible, don't do stupid things in public and are the picture of maturity. I feel like all my excuses of being young are now over.
I would understand if I felt this way about a 30th birthday - but a 28th? It's a bit random really.
Twenty - eight.
Do you know I've all but planned my thirtieth? Now THAT will be a post and a half.
But, I get presents tomorrow. So that's the main thing, right?

Rach- I am glad to hear that someone else feels this way. I turned 28 in August and had a big freak out, it "felt" very different from 27.
ReplyDeleteAnyway- welcome to 28, it is a good one
