Hi there!
I'm doing a throw back to my birthday last year.
So yes I turned the big '20' back in october. I have always felt that twenty is big and it means you're all grown up and everything...well I was wrong...lol...( that awkward moment when you realize you've been wrong for so long!).
Well it felt quite normal, it still feels normal...lol...(Okay let me be serious). On every birthday, I tend to review the past year, set new goals, work on those goals that I haven't suceeded at. From October to now, Alhamdulillah, its been good! Twenty has been good. I kind of like twenty and I don't want it to go...lol(like I can help that). Turning a new age makes me feel weird.
I have experienced a lot of changes along the way though. I never expecyed such changes. I recently noticed that my sense of smell is like two times stronger! (is that even normal?) I tend to percieve scents or odours faster than people around me. I have also gotten more sensitive and irritable (so annoying!!!) to germs and random things. This is one of the many reasons why I don't go out often-actually I'm just really introverted. There have also been positive aspects(mostly very personal) see I travelled to Abuja a little over two months ago for like five seconds...lol but it was really eye opening and I'm kind of still basking in the euphoria(someone needs to pinch me like real fast!)
However I am still struggling to fulfil the goals I set last year. The first is to complete my book which I still haven't been able to do. I love writing! Its like my first love but its difficult for me to write most times. I keep having severe writing blocks but hopefully I will keep trying to complete it before this year runs out.
Okay guys, I swear this post was not supposed to be lengthy, I don't know whats going on!
Lastly, the gorgeous cake up there was actually a surprise from my siblings...I had absolutely no idea! (honestly I was so damn broke then...lol *confessions of a broke girl*) I hardly ever gape in surprise but I did that day (I mean who does that?)
Anyway, this post has been too lengthy... please leave your comments below...I would love to hear from you!
