28

09 Mar 2007

I never thought I’d make it this far. Quite a number of friends didn’t. I thought about that, last night when I went to bed. I thought about turning from 27 to 28. It doesn’t seem a big step and externally I’m not making a big deal about it, but somewhere inside I’m glad I passed that 7.

I remember having conversations about it with my friends. Most of them are a few years older than me. That’s how I got the idea. They told me that if you make it passed 27, you’re going good. You’ve crossed the gap and you’ll be ok.

30 isn’t a big deal. It’s 27. And now that’s gone. Yey!

    Happy birthday! BTW: does any of that also count for 37? In that case, I’m not looking forward to next year… :-}

    Hey, don’t get me wrong, 27 was the year with the most exciting things and where I got the best opportunities ever and so far. Everything went juuuuust great. ;-) it’s actually something to look forward to.

    27 come after 26 and before 28. The BIggest decision come when you are ready to accept them.
