10 Reaons I Am OK with Turning 30!

As you all probably already know, I am turning 30 next week! I have been very anxious about it all year but lately I've been feeling better about it. I decided to make a list of some of the things that I will like about being 30. Although there are plenty of reasons that 30 is great, here are my top 10:

10. I no longer have to worry about being compared to 20-somethings (instead of the old 20-something now I'm the young & fresh 30-something)

9. I will feel like I have more authority and respect at work (even if it is not true)

8. I can look great "for my age"

7. I will no longer feel out of place at fancy restaurants (I sometimes felt too young to be eating there -- don't really know why)

6. I am more financially secure

5. I actually still believe that I look like I'm in my 20's :)

4. I'm no longer expected to know what is "hip" or "cool" (but I get props when I do :))

3. I can justify spending money on expensive face creams (b/c that's what you do when you're old)

2. I feel good knowing I am smarter than my "younger" friends (b/c we all know we get older and wiser)

1. I get to go to Vegas and celebrate with my friends!
