Yeah that’s right, I turn the big 30 on March 20th, I am excited, I don’t really have any qualms about growing ‘old’, it happens to all of us! People have been nagging me for weeks now asking me what gift I want and I really don’t know, I have considered some running shoes but that’s a little boring – I feel I should get something more special and timeless.

There’s a nice Citizen Eco Drive watch I like and it’s not too expensive but I don’t really wear watches, they get in my way I find. I might have to make an exception this time though and go for it because I really do love it

Now I am not the sort of person who likes a fuss, I am hoping it passes by without anyone trying to convince me I should throw a big party of sky dive in order to mark the day appropriately. But I am expecting some jolly nice gifts off my loved ones – DVDs are all well and good but I feel for my 30th I should get something a little more special that I will have and remember where it came from for years to come, like jewellery!

I got a (fake) Pandora bracelet at Christmas so people could perhaps buy me nice charms for that. I have also had my eye on a nice copper bracelet I have seen on BillyTheTree – they sell a wide range of gorgeous jewellery, from bracelets and earrings to anklets and toe rings.

I like the copper bracelets because I just prefer the color to gold which always seems garish to me.

BillTheTree offers free worldwide shipping which is also a major plus point as I have family and friends all over the world so any of them could order it for me, wrap it up and make it pretty and send it back over to me and they offer a satisfaction guarantee so if for any reason you don’t like your purchase you can just send it on back

I had been tossing around various ideas to celebrate the big day, including the idea of not celebrating it at all and just hiding under a rock until it’s over. In the end I have decided I want to do something, I just don’t know what yet.

We’re seriously considering going paintballing, aside from the fact we have done it before and it’s a lot of fun because we like playing with our airsoft guns and basically beating each other – it’s also a great way of getting some exercise which is always a plus in my eyes.

However as we have done it before I am questioning if it’s ‘special’ enough.

We’ve also considered taking a hot air balloon ride, going abroad for a few nights with some friends, going camping/hiking and so much more.

Basically we need to hurry up and decide so we can start making plans, but we are having a very hard time coming to a decision.
