Today I celebrated my 31st birthday. I don’t really ask for much because I don’t want to be made a fuss over. I got messages from the people who matter to me, and I talked to my family and friends. My trip to Europe was an early birthday gift I gave to myself, and my iPad was a gift from the BF. I went to the Denny’s with the BF to get my free Original Grand Slam for my birthday, and have about 5 coupons for free birthday meals I can using this week. Nothing better than free food.

I hoping my bday would be uneventful, but a tornado touched down not too far from my home. It reminded me of the bday I spent with no power for nearly a week because of the 1998 labor day storm in Syracuse, NY. Luckily the power stayed on and there seem to be minimal damage.

My special day is now over, and it was as good one. Thanks to all of those who made my good day possible.

To celebrate, I decided to take a personal day from work and just relax.

I don’t have any issues with now being in my 30s, but I do just find it strange. It will take some time to get used to saying that I am in my 30s instead of my 20s, but I have no feelings of “getting old” because I feel aging is a normal process. To be honest, I never thought I would make it to 30. Not because I lead some kind of dangerous life, but I just had this feeling.

I am here, I am healthy [knock on wood] and I am now a homeowner. So things are good in my life so far [again, knock on wood].

So I will enjoy my 30s, and look forward to my 40s.

I made another year relatively unscathed. I always considered that 28 would by my scary age. Not for any reason in particular other than my gut reaction. I experienced a lot in my 28 year of life:

The Good
- I got to meet Venus Williams.
- I got to go to the US Open for the very first time.
- I won a bunch of tennis tournaments.
- I saw Kanye West this past May and it has replaced my previous (and only) concert memory of when I can MC Hammer live as a kid. I have tickets to see Janet Jackson in October (7 rows from the stage — WooHoo!) and possibly going to see Madonna in November when she come to Houston, TX.

The Bad
- I somehow got Mono and I hope never to contract it again. WORST. EXPERIENCE. EVER!

The Ambivalent
- I was in a relationship in 2008 and it was both good and bad. But I feel that it was beneficial to me because I am (still) learning what I want in future in terms of dating. So … ultimately it was more good than bad.

Thanks to all of those who sent me messages with birthday wishes. I appreciated them. Things are extremely busy at work and I can’t wait to get out of here so I can go home and watch the US Open Men’s Final.

I should have taken the day off.

That all changed yesterday.


I got invited to play tennis on this morning on a USTA colored court. I never played on those type of courts, and they were beautiful. The people I played with didn’t know it was birthday until I told them during lunch. Once they heard, they started to plan something for me. The reason I usually don’t tell people about my birthday is because I don’t want to be made a fuss over. But once the wheels started churning, there was no stopping them.


I also received another invite to watch the US Open 2007 Women’s Final. I thought Venus Williams would be there, but, unfortunately, she was beat by Justine Henin (BOO!). We ate, we laughed, and watched Henin win another Grand Slam title this year. It didn’t make my special day any much better. Until the birthday cake time, that is.

I am now home, on my third piece of cake, watching the first episode of the third season of Footballers’ Wives.

It was a good day. Thanks to all that sent me birthday wishes!

Since today is my 27th birthday I will be taking this day off from blogging. But I will be back tomorrow with my Project Runway Recap.

If you like, you can leave a comment with your well wishes, or just to say:

Haaaaaaay!
