Happy Birthday to Me

A bit older, but none the wiser. Still no wrinkles. Lots of energy. That's what it feels like to be 26. Oh my gosh. In my head I'm still 22. A 22-year-old with issues. [as a matter of fact, I think I have more issues now than when I was 22].
The knot of anxiety is growing each day, and soon I will probably explode. But no worries. Today I will try to behave like a mature 26-year-old. I will do my best not to break down and start howling in front of people [please keep anything containing alcohol FAR AWAY from me].
At least it's sunny and warm: summery feelings have already invaded me, so much that I couldn't help taking my shoes off and walk on the hot asphalt. The hairdresser was also very kind and instead of messing it all up, she gave me a very nice look indeed.
Now I will celebrate like a real grown-up: with some strawberries and sparkling wine in the sun [on an empty stomach. my gosh #2: this ain't gonna be pretty]. 

Oh well, at least I'm lucky enough to have a birthday, so I should stop complaining and start enjoying this day.
So, I hope that a year from now I will be a lot wiser, I wish all my "birthday-twins" a very adventurous birthday and I would also like to thank my friends and family for their wishes.
