At 30

Yesterday I turned the big 3 0. How did I spend my day? We spent it moving houses, most tiring birthday ever. You know what’s funny? I used to think turning 30 was a pretty scary thing. When I was 18, I thought 30 year olds were so old. But now that I’m 30, I feel no different to when I was 22, probably feeling better now than I did before.

Here’s 30 random facts and achievements of my life so far:

1. I created this blog!
2. I once wanted to be a flight attendant but I gave up on the idea because I was too lazy to get a first aid certificate.
3. I have moved out of home for 3 years now.
4. I don’t know how to cook, we live off take out.
5. I have completed two university degrees which I regret now since I’m still paying it off.
6. I have traveled to only a few countries – Hong Kong, Vietnam, Thailand, New Zealand, US & Canada.
7. I got married.
8. I speak broken Cantonese. It’s getting worse by the day, since I don’t speak it everyday.

12. My favorite food right now is the Bonegilla from Jimmy Grants and Kim Chi soup from Oriental Spoon.
13. I got a new job this year, yay!
14. Over the last 4-5years, I have learnt to relax and not worry about missing out on stuff. FOMO used to really get to me.

16. My makeup skills have improved since I started this blog.
17. We have no pets yet.
18. I buy a lot of work clothes but only end up wearing the same ones over and over again.

21. My favorite burger from Maccas is fillet o fish.
22. My shoulders can no longer handle a heavy handbag (sigh…signs of getting old).

25. Ever since having a smart phone, I am addicted to it and must have it by my side all the time.
26. I used to love playing FPS (First Person Shooter) games and have participated in league matches.
27. Throughout high school and university, I have always had short spikey hair.
28. I have 7 piercing on my ear but I rarely wear earrings so people who know me won’t even noticed.
