I keep forgetting that I'm not in my 20s any longer. The other day I commented that someone was around my age, when I realized she is actually in her early 20s, and I am not. However, I have come to greatly appreciate the school uniform the students wear; on Mufti Days (non-uniform days) I try my best to walk with an authoritative air as I'm all too aware that I don't look all that different than the Year 13s. I hope that I will still look young when I reach an age where that will count for something; for now I have to work harder to exude a teacher's identity.
I was excited to have a momentous birthday: dinner out at a fancy restaurant, an appointment with the masseuse for an hour massage... In reality I laid on the couch for two weeks with a kidney infection. I'm hoping that it's an ironic rather than a prophetic start to my adulthood (I'm thinking that I've officially outgrown 'young adult' by now.)
