I'm Almost 30

This secret was on PostSecret this week.    Right now there are some days I could be the sender of this secret, but not all that often.  I look back at my pictures from my early 20's and think, "What in the world was I so self-conscious about?"  I figure I'll do the same when I look back at my pictures from now.



Well, "fuck that!" I'm going to work hard to make this secret mine more often than not these days.

  1. I saw this postcard too and was so envious of the sender for having that kind of confidence. Maybe it is time to stop being so hard on myself.

  2. I *wish* I had that kind of self-confidence! I do alright until I have to break out the bathing suit, then I literally cry because I feel bad...I think I cared less in college! Is that possible?!? Good for you for knowing how Hot you are :)

  4. Oh dear Lord, bathing suits. I am breaking out in hives just thinking about it now. I have actually been in tears at North Ave. Beach here in Chicago. N. Ave is where all the hot people go to "be seen," and you will seriously not see girls there over a size 6 (and yes, at least half have had plastic surgery). As I am almost double that, it is VERY traumatic. I can't always avoid it either because that's where Nathan goes to play sand vball. I much prefer "our" beach which has gay men and large Eastern European women. Much better for my self-esteem...
