Turning 30

Yet another blog on turning 30.... Yawn.

Not in my twenties no more. Supposed to feel old. Surprisingly, feel good. But then I am one of those people who doesn't long to go back to any period of my life. Somehow the present always seems better than the past. 

As good and carefree childhood and college life were, I don't long for them. We forget the helplessness of childhood and all the uncertainty and tension of college life. Or to choose to gloss over it.

And given my passion for acting older than my age, I am glad to be able to quote a more dignified age numeral :)

Some biggies as I enter this new decade -

• Quit the full-time work grind after 7+ years -more than a year now, still loving it 

• Cultivated an interest in learning Spanish and Yoga - having a new hobby is a lot more hard work than its made out to be 

• Charting out a new flexi way of keeping professionally engaged - yes, its possible and very lucratively so 

• Becoming a mommy soon - tasting and relishing second-time success after a botched first attempt

Twenties, so long and thanks for all the fun.

Thirties. Here I come.
