22 Days to my Birthday! Yay!

I wish the countdown to my birthday started with a round number. Imagine having to remember the number 22! Every year, I have to subtract 4 from 26 cos I can never remember!

Oh, Happy Birthday Annapurna! :D


So you vaar TONTY FI ees eet? And 25 is a life-altering year. Boy o boy, that quarter life crisis. Things will start to look abysmal. What are you going to do? The whole world's crumbling down around you. There's no sight of that bright future––the one that you saw as a teenager. You have a mountain of complexes to deal with, not to mention a low self-esteem. Those puffy eyes, those dark circles, those smile lines, they are just not helping are they!

Do people think you are funny enough Annapuski? Can you make smart conversation?

And what about your career? Do your colleagues take you seriously at work? Does your boss think you are too young to be a manager, even though you know you can do it? No wait. Can you?


And your friends? Are they moving ahead of you? That must be hard to bear. Your (once) equal buddies in high school are doing way better than you, and the ones who are worse off don't matter anyway.

You can't even better yourself. A few years ago, when the time was ripe, you shoulda woulda coulda but the Times Up! It's too late. At 25, a nurse can't aspire to become a doctor, a peon can't aspire to become a manager. There is no one to ask you what you want to become––only what you have become.

So what have you become Annaachiever?

Think about it! Here's some inspiration...


But really. You are something else Annapurna! Not the regular 25 year old having to deal with all that crisis. I know you feel the need to feel that crisis deep down in your heart, but you are really beyond all this. If there was one person in our generation whose ideals I aspire for, it would be yours. You define perfection to me!
=)

I SAID IT! I expressed how I feel about you! Have we done that before?


Still, no matter how much older you get, you will be two years younger (than me)! Make of it what you want. I just had to say it. Put the facts out there for your interpretation. But, to me, it seems like it's all working in my favor. :)
