grow up

Since I'm still ill, it's the 7 Things You May Not Know About Me Tag, passed on by curious rose. From her answers, I learnt she has the same travel bug as I do. But hopefully not malaria, which is what I got my blood tested for today! Yikes. Too much information. Sorry. While I was doing the tag, it morphed into a mini-litany on how age is about how you feel, rather than a number. I've entitled it "The 7 Things You May Not Know About Me/I'm 24 going on 25 and...Super Tag Hybrid". To keep you awake, I've peppered it with theme-appropriate editorial shot by Juergen Teller for W Magazine of some of the supermodels I grew up lookin at - unairbrushed, aged, in all their glory.

1 ♥ I'm 24 going on 25 and I have terrible anxiety about driving.


Shalom Harlow

2 ♥ I'm 24 going on 25 and I still laugh myself silly at fart jokes.


Cindy Crawford

3 ♥ I'm 24 going on 25 and I never pay my bills on time.

5 ♥ I'm 24 going on 25 and cannot sleep without hugging a cuddly toy.

  8. Oh no. I hope your blood test comes back a-ok!

    This was a fun tag to read. I've been thinking a lot lately about age and whatnot and how one shouldn't be completely defined by the number that follows them around.

    I hope you're feeling better!

  11. I sure hope you don't have malaria!! Eeek. Robot underwear for everyone, I say! And driving can be really scary. It took me forever to get confident about it, and even now I will sometimes relapse into terror.. haha.

  14. geee... how old are these supermodels? Does time stop for them?

    Anyway, love your post. Not only this one, but all of them makes me laugh...I comment rarely because I feel rather silly typing only "lol" on the comment box. And yes it will make me look dumb too.
