25 going on 30

Yesterday I watched the movie “13 going on 30” with Jennifer Garner. In this movie, a young teenager on her 13th birthday whishes that she becomes 30. And with some “wish-dust” and Hollywood magic, she reaches that goal within the first 15 minutes of the movie. She falls asleep as a girl of 1987 and wakes up as a thirty year old, successful and hot woman working for a fashion magazine in the year 2004. Despite her adult body, she still feels and acts like a 13 year old girl, just everyone else around her has changed and grown up on. Pretty soon she realizes that not everything turns out the way she was hopping for… I’ve seen a couple of similar films, but “13 going on 30” is actually a very funny movie with some very nice twists and of course the obligatory happy ending. Tailor made for girls and woman from 13 to 30 I guess. So why am I, a 25 year old man watching the movie? I think Jennifer Garner is an absolutely hot woman, that’s why!

But speaking of turning 30... In two months I will turn 26, so 30 is not that far away at all. I wonder what I will be like when I’m thirty. Five years ago 30 seemed like an eternity away, but now people that are actually around 30 are just like me. I can’t tell the difference and when I’m talking to people that are around 30 it’s just like I’m talking to someone of my age. Until very recently I thought I would have kids when I’m 30, but now I don’t know about that. My plans for the next four years have changed. I want to go to Antarctica, as I want to visit all continents before I turn 30 and I want to work and live in a different country for some time, maybe England or the States.

Well, I think I know around Dezember 2008!
