The Luck zoic Sentinel Team Published Weekly - 619 Campbell Street, Lucknow Turning 30 is just fine with me My birthday is coming up on Nov. 12 and I will be hitting the big 30. I think . for many people, they think it's a bad thing, a sign that their youth is over. For myself, I think it's just an age because I pretty much have the same mind set as 1 did when I was 25. I'm just happy I'll get to. be sharing the birthday with my friends, parents and my twin brother. A lot of peo- ple when they meet us don't think we are twins or brothers for that .mat- ter. They ` figure it out .when we stain to talk because we have a lot of the same mannerisms. I'll be going out on 'the town in the big city of Peterborough where my brother currently resides. Again, I don't think 30 is a big thing in my world. Over half of my friends have already turned • the three decade mark and it did- n't phase them one bit and they are still the same as ever. I think some people think they have to change their lifestyle or be more mature. I: say if you feel comfort- able with who you are, f then you don't have to change for any age or social norms. I'm not saying be reckless and immature, but juste don't change your personality for a birthday. Getting older has its advan- tages too. You look at the world each and everyday with a better perspective and you gain the knowledge and wisdom that life: affords everyone the older they get. I'll take . . knowledge over youth any day. I also know that some people reading this are thinking I'm still a youngin' in many respects and that I still have a few years before my knowledge and experience has merit. All I can say to is that "I'm working on it." I still have my career ahead of me and hopefully a fancily some- day, so I know I have a lot of liv- ing to do and I'm thinking the best years are ahead of me and I can't wait. Remember when.
