{I'm 25, so I guess I got five more years...}
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.
2. A decent piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in your family.
3. Something perfect to wear if the employer or man of your dreams wants to see you in an hour.
4. A purse, a suitcase, and an umbrella you're not ashamed to be seen carrying.
5. A youth you're content to move beyond.
6. A past juicy enough that you're looking forward to retelling it in your old age.
7. The realization that you are actually going to have an old age- and some money set aside to help fund it.
8. An e-mail address, a voice mailbox, and a bank account - all of which nobody has access to but you.
9. A resume that is not even the slightest bit padded.
10. One friend who always makes you laugh and one who lets you cry.
11. A set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill and a black lace bra.
12. Something ridiculously expensive that you bought for yourself, just because you deserve it.
13. The belief that you deserve it.
14. A skin-care regimen, an exercise routine and a plan for dealing with those few facets of life that don't get better after 30.
15. A solid start on a satisfying career, a satisfying relationship and all those other facets of life that do get better.
By 30, you should know:
1. How to fall in love without losing yourself.
2. How you feel about kids.
3. How to quit a job, break up with a man and confront a friend without ruining the friendship.
4. When to try harder and when to walk away.
5, How to kiss in a way that communicates perfectly what you would and wouldn't like to happen next.
6. The names of: the secretary of state, your great-grandmother and the best tailor in town.
7. How to live alone, even if you don't like to.
8. How to take control of your own birthday.
9. That you can't change the length of your calves, the width of your hips or the nature of your parents.
10. That your childhood may not have been perfect, but it's over.
11. What you would and wouldn't do for money or love.
12. That nobody gets away with smoking, drinking, doing drugs or not flossing for very long.
13. Who you can trust, who you can't and why you shouldn't take it personally.
14. Not to apologize for something that isn't your fault.
15. Why they say life begins at 30.

Blushing pink bridal shower.





last weekend, as the official duty of the maid of honor; i threw one of my best friends a bridal shower, and whew am i glad its finally over. i put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into making this day very special for her because she's one of my best friends and i care for her dearly. the theme of the party was pink, obviously for the blushing brides favorite color and she absolutely loved it. i created the pink candy table and it was a hit! especially for the bride since she has such a sweet tooth. she always has candy for me when i come over. {such a bad influence she is}
overall, the shower was a success and the bride enjoyed herself. now, this weekend her family members are throwing her a bridal shower, and were also going out for her bachelorette party! boy, am i ready to get all dolled up, drink way too much and make the bride wear a bunch of penis stuff.
have a good weekend, kids.
