You are all grown up when you finally realize that you can only grow sideways or shorter.
Dajie told me that she is looking forward to becoming a mature woman, and instead of being fearful of the age 30, she is embracing it with much grace and joy. She is optimistic about the future and confident of her achievements to date.
I never understood why.
As my quarter-life crisis weans off gradually, my hair is less blonde, my wardrobe gets duller, almost zero alcohol, greater collection of fashion jeweleries, increased health consciousness, yada yada.
Life is not the same anymore. I stopped thinking about how have I not enjoyed my youth and how much more I should do to be happier.
Now I am embracing my journey to 30. This is ironic since I used to hope that I am forever 21 and obsessed about losing more weight. Haven't seemed to figure out how this sudden change took place, but I am assured that for the rest of my life, I will be contented with everything I have, and will have.
