Another Year Older
02 April 2008 by Administrator
Today is my birthday. I'm another year closer to thirty, and I'm not ashamed to say I'm a little down about it. It feels like just last year I was still at school, wondering what I'd be doing when I got to my age, and joking about losing my hair and getting fat, both of which have tragically come true. But I refuse to wallow in self-pity, and instead focus on all the things I'd like to get from my family and friends to celebrate turning 27.
Dammit, I can't think of anything.
That's another problem, I've discovered, about getting older. It gets really difficult to think of suggestions for presents, because the items my loved ones can afford to buy me are the items I can already afford to buy myself, so that only leaves really expensive things like iPods and Game Consoles and the like, which of course are all far too expensive for birthday presents. I'd ask for some games, but I can't think of a single title that's been released this year that I'd want to own, and I've already got everything I wanted from last year, so what does that leave me with? No idea. But then again, at least I'll be surprised!
