お久しぶり!
How has everyone been spending the summer?
Lately the weather has been perfect minus the extreme heat so I've been in good spirits.
Today is my birthday. I've hit the big 3-0. Or what the Japanese call 三十路 (misoji). Oh why must they have a name for it??
Oh gosh, now that I'm an old lady...hope that doesn't make you want to de-friend me. Hehe...
No really, I still think of my myself as being young. I hear this is one of the best parts of your life where you really become a lady.
I don't know about that yet. I hear us Gen-Yers are a bit behind. Besides isn't 30 the new 20 or something like that? hehe
Thanks to everyone who've been sending me birthday wishes via lj, twitter and facebook. I'm happy to hear from you all and it's always great to know someone remembers your birthday.
This is the picture of the birthday cake I want from Lady M. It looks so delicious and reminds me of the gateau au chocolat cakes I used to buy from the bakeries in Tokyo. It's so cute!!

Didn't know that there is a name by Japanese for 30. O_o I only know how major the 20th is by them.
Must say though, that as in Hungary you become an adult with 18 - and can work from 16, drive a motorbike, etc. - any other age isn't handled as such a big deal.
Absolutely YES!
XDDD We're still so young, I'll let people call me old lady in probably other 30 years!!!
Again happy birthday! ^_^ I miss a little the years when we used to spend both our birthdays in Tokyo karaokeing and so on...hope one day we will be able to do that again when the situation will calm down >_<
Always waiting for you to come visit Rome, don't make me go all the way to America, come on XDDD
I miss those times, too. It's only been a year but it seems so much longer since those days. When we're well established we should plan a trip somewhere together!
I'm still hoping to go to Rome but the trip is kinda in limbo right now because my mom is having problems with her knee. So seems like we'll have to postpone our fall trip until she feels better.T__T
Have a wonderful year!
Honestly, I can't believe I'm 30 either. I ask my mom every year to tell me the truth about my birth year. I mean the early 80s are all a blur to me. But I can't deny it, I definitely remember 86& up. :/
So I'm accepting it and happy that at least I'm not 40 yet.:p
I'm also grateful that I still look younger than my age. As long as people can't tell how old I really am...it's almost as if I haven't aged at all.:)
and happy birthday
cake looks delicious!
Thanks so much!!!XD
I miss taking bday purikuras!
