So I came across this list on Pinterest... Let's see how many I can check off...
By 30, you should have ...
1. One old boyfriend you can imagine going back to and one who reminds you of how far you’ve come. CHECK to both
2. A decent piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in your family.
CHECK
3. Something perfect to wear if the employer or man of your dreams wants to see you in an hour.
Ummmm, wasn't so prepared for this one..
4. A purse, a suitcase, and an umbrella you’re not ashamed to be seen carrying.
CHECK,CHECK,CHECK!!
5. A youth you’re content to move beyond.
YUP
6. A past juicy enough that you’re looking forward to retelling it in your old age.
Prolly more juicy than I would have preferred!!
7. The realization that you are actually going to have an old age -- and some money set aside to help fund it.
Maybe???
8. An email address, a voice mailbox, and a bank account -- all of which nobody has access to but you.
YOU KNOW IT!
9. A résumé that is not even the slightest bit padded.
Why pad??? They can check up on those things ya know!?!?
10. One friend who always makes you laugh and one who lets you cry.
Most certainly!
11. A set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra.
Yup
12. Something ridiculously expensive that you bought for yourself, just because you deserve it.
Not at this point in my life I didn't!
13. The belief that you deserve it.
HELL YES
14. A skin-care regimen, an exercise routine, and a plan for dealing
with those few other facets of life that don’t get better after 30.
Nope... Wish I would have!!
15. A solid start on a satisfying career, a satisfying relationship, and all those other facets of life that do get better.
Solid start on my career came in 2008 when I was 29.. Satisfying relationship came just before 30!!
By 30, you should know ...
1. How to fall in love without losing yourself.
I learned this the year I turned 30!
2. How you feel about having kids.
I already had one, and knew I wanted another.
3. How to quit a job, break up with a man, and confront a friend without ruining the friendship.
I wasn't so good at confronting friends... Just let em walk all over me at that point in my life...
4. When to try harder and when to walk away.
I perfected these actions long before 30.
5. How to kiss in a way that communicates perfectly what you would and wouldn’t like to happen next.
I got two letters for this, and only one other person will get it... FW
6. The names of the secretary of state, your great-grandmothers, and the best tailor in town.
Great Grandmothers, yes... The rest, not a clue..
7. How to live alone, even if you don’t like to.
I did so the year I turned 30...
8. Where to go -- be it your best friend’s kitchen table or a yoga mat -- when your soul needs soothing.
I have a few places that do this..
9. That you can’t change the length of your legs, the width of your hips, or the nature of your parents.
Got it down pat!
10. That your childhood may not have been perfect, but it’s over.
AMEN!
11. What you would and wouldn’t do for money or love.
"I would do anything thing for love, but I won't do that!!"
12. That nobody gets away with smoking, drinking, doing drugs, or not flossing for very long.
HAHA!!! YUP,YUP!
13. Who you can trust, who you can’t, and why you shouldn’t take it personally.
Life lessons learned all too hard!
14. Not to apologize for something that isn’t your fault.
I will NEVER do this again!!
15. Why they say life begins at 30
My life most CERTAINLY did!!!
