Well it’s my 25th Birthday coming up (6 April) and I have not had time to get excited about it until now so I thought I’d do this tongue-in-cheek post to get myself in the Birthday spirit.
- Because it’s YOUR special day – unless of course you are a twin (sharing is caring).
- Presents – as much as I love giving, there’s nothing more exciting then unwrapping a gift that was purchased especially for you.
- Birthday cake – we all love birthday cake right? A birthday is one of the only days you can eat a big slice of cake and not feel guilty about it.
- Birthday cards – I love having them proudly on display and reading the birthday wishes from my family and friends.
- Parties – Although I’m not having a party for my 25th, I do love everything that comes with parties… balloons, decorations, music, friends, drinks and party food.
- Family and friends – Nothing better than being with your family and friends and having them all there because of you.
- Going out to dinner – The one night where you get to pick the restaurant and the most expensive meal on the menu but not have to pick up the bill ;)
- Birthday outfit – The thrill and sometimes stress of finding something amazing to wear on your special day.
- Facebook birthday wishes – I love opening my account and seeing the many notifications from friends wishing me happy birthday on my wall.
- Special offers and free products – Most companies will acknowledge your birthday when you sign up for a loyalty club or join a mailing list. If you have subscribed to as many as I have you’re bound to receive special product offers or even free products when your birthday rolls around each year.
- Stop being asked for I.D – Although if you are asked… take it as a complement.
- You instantly loose your immaturity overnight ;)
- But can still have immature moments and get away with it.
- Cheaper car insurance – You must instantly also become a better diver as Australian Insurance companies will allow over 25’s a cheaper insurance premium.
- In some cases you are legally able to rent a car – although I think I have already rented a car??(maybe it’s cheaper once your 25).
- You can evaluate or re-evaluate you life and it’s still not too late to make changes.
- You are slowly becoming content with your insecurities – don’t worry we will get there one day!
- It’s only the beginning of the rest of your life.
- You are moving out of home for the very first time (or may have already).
- You have the energy to juggle work, fitness regime and social life all in one day.
- Nights out change from loud nightclubs to cocktail bars and chill music.
- You come to the realization that when you lie, you eventually get caught out.
- …. And that if something is too good to be true, it usually is.
- You become more adventurous and up for trying new things or experimenting with different foods.
- It’s a milestone birthday – Quarter of a Century!
This sounds much like my 22nd birthday!! Haha I guess I'm just more mature for my age :)
