so...

I've been 30 for a week now.

Am I supposed to feel any different? Because I don't. LOL

I still feel like the little kid who still lives at home with her parents, only now it's more like the teenager who just got her driver's license and has to beg her parents to use the car. Because really, I do have to beg my dad to use the car. It's really quite sad.

I think I'll start to feel more like an adult once I have a better paying/full time job and my own car.

For as independent as I am now, it still feels like a depend on my parents quite a bit.

I've also been thinking about making a list of things I want to do by the time I'm 40. Within the list will be small "milestone accomplishments" I want to achieve in the next 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, by age 35, then by age 40. A lot of the list is already travel oriented that hinges on me finding a better job, which is my goal for what I want to achieve in the next 6 months.



PS new default icon. It's from my birthday.

I don't get it

I think my parents have some aversion to places like Subway and Quiznos.

They ask me where I want to eat after church on Sundays and if I suggest Subway, the idea gets vetoed.

I'm asked where I want to eat and they say no?! It's not like I suggested some high end, dress fancy place.

So we end up at Taco Bell, Carl's Jr. or on the rare occasion, Jack in the Box.

I don't have anything against those places, in fact, nearly every Friday I get Jack in the Box on the way to work or Taco Bell on the way home, but don't ask me what I want for lunch and say no. I'm not asking you to pay for it. Just stop by one of the 3 subway locations we pass on the way home.



And yes, I am hungry. For Carl's Jr. this time.
