29

Twenty-nine years old. I’ve reached my last year in my 20’s and I have a lot of mix feelings towards it. The last time I wrote on here for my birthday was when I turned 25. Reading that post I wrote 4 years ago, I can see how much things have changed. Despite what I said in that post, I remember that I was still afraid of “growing up”, unsure about life, and definitely insecure about the life I was living. Even so, I’m still proud of myself for taking those small steps to change my life.

Now, I can safely say that I have a much more positive outlook. Even though I still don’t know where life will take me, I’m okay with it. Thanks to many people out there in my life, I can truly enjoy the meaning of “life is a journey”. I’m happy that I get to explore many different aspects in life. All the failures I’ve faced. The breaks I took. The ups and down. The people I met and those who left me. All of them are stories I’ve collected in my life.

It’s so crazy to think about how much I’ve been through in my 20’s. It’s been a wild ride and I’m still on it. If COVID-19 wasn’t around, I’d be traveling more. I really wish I could. I don’t plan on being in Japan forever so, I wish that I could travel while I am here. I want to go out, meet people, live life, you know? But for now I guess I’ll do my best doing what I can here.

My birthday was simple and nice this year. My sister got my new sneakers and we celebrate it together with a friend. SEVENTEEN hosted a whole dang online concert for my birthday so, I really can’t complain.

Life is great. Let’s make it the best 29.
