Level 26

That’s right, I’ve leveled up, or it’s my name-day, whatever you want to call it.

I feel like a birthday is now something that just sneaks up on me rather than something that has to be a big celebration.

So yeah, I’m 26 now, less than halfway towards 30. I told myself that by the time I’d be 30, I’d want to have my career already up and running. But, as time passed I realized that everybody is different and not everyone has their independent life together by that age. I can feel it, soon people will start asking me when I will “settle down” but that’s not the kind of life I want to live.

Even now that I’m 26, well age is just a number to me. I haven’t changed and I don’t plan on doing so for others. I’m me: I love to write, play video games, sleep with stuffed animals, daydream about a Monsterman, gaze at my action figures on my shelves, etc.

And there is NOTHING wrong with that. It doesn’t hurt anyone or interfere with my adult responsibilities you know. No matter how old I get, I will not let anyone tell me how to live my life.

I spent this morning volunteering at the hospital and this afternoon relaxing and playing Witcher 3 where I have finally made it to Novigrad, I’ll have to make my choice soon and I regret what I did to Keira.

Do I have cake? Yes in fact:

Baked on Sunday: lemon with vanilla frosting. My mom taught me how to bake cakes almost two years ago and now it’s a hobby. No one needs to buy cakes in this house anymore! I enjoy doing it and now I want to get creative with the frost.

Just wanted to share a snippet on my birthday. Now what should I spend my attribute points on?
