And when I turned 19, I was a little bummed about leaving my teens (hey who doesn&#8217;t love the number 1?) Having gone through my 20s though, I can safely say that I am so looking forward to my 30s. <\/p>\n<p>So with this, I&#8217;m saying bye-bye to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>my awkward 20s filled with cliques I could never fit into<\/li>\n<li>sweaty palms and clumsy kisses<\/li>\n<li>trying to be hip and cool \u2013\u00a0I&#8217;m resigned to the fact that I&#8217;m more of a classics girl<\/li>\n<li>being anxious about life \u2013 I find myself going with the flow these days and losing a lot less hair and sleep<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>&#8230; and lots more apparently, so it&#8217;s safe to say bring it on 30s!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I&#8217;ll be out celebrating by tossing some bowling balls around, flexing my muscles at the pool table and having a great dinner with Mr. T.
