the coming of age

it just occured to me this morning that in 13 days, i'll turn a quarter of a century old. WOW.

i guess it's just a number to some but it feels like the crossing of a threshold. it feels like... *gasp* i'm only 5 years away from being 30!!! *EEEKS*!!!!

it feels strange, like a heavy responsibility, yet of what, i have no clue.

i liked being 24. and since i like even numbers, i'm actually not that keen on being 25, cuz it's an odd number. silly reason i know, but it's one of those quirks. yet, i'm kind of excited. i think the year of being 25 will be a special one.
