Oh Bianchi...

My new favorite nail color... Mint green... The first time I saw this color was while surfing the internet. I saw an ad for the Essie Mint Candy Apple and it was love at first sight. I went everywhere they sold Essie products and could not find it. But! Good things come to those who wait... Well that didn't really happen for me. I just found a similar color by China Glaze at Sally Beauty Supply after three days of hounding for this color.

Funny how my cycling buddies don't see it as Tiffany & Co. green, or even just mint chocolate chip ice cream green, or jesus christ just mint green. They see it as Bianchi Celeste green... shaking head*

Welcome to the 29 Club...

Is what came through to my phone at precisely 2 minutes past midnight... Thanks... Thanks a lot...

As superstitious as I am, the moment I opened my eyes, everything that would happen to me the moment I threw off the covers, counted. Of course, I managed to hit every meaningful red light possible which made me 4 minutes late to work. I am now worried that my day is not going to go my way... but it's my birthday! Things have to go right! Haha!

Well, I am officially 29. My final year in my twenties. I guess its not so bad. There are many good things that have come from my early to mid twenties. I am no longer weak to peer pressure. I can finally say no to people (unless you're waving chocolate in front of my face). I have a solid circle of friends. I am very close to my family. I have a stable job. I make good money. I have real reachable goals in line for my 30s. I made it into adulthood! Not the "I'm 18, I am an adult," but the "I am finally-truly-self-sufficient-daughter-of-proud-parents adult."

Let's see how I do in my thirties...
