Marissa Explains It All: The big 20

The big 20

Well it's my birthday officially, in 6 minutes I'll be 20. It doesn't feel like it though. I guess it never really does for me and I always feel like if I'm not doing something extra special than my birthday isn't a good one. Do you ever feel like that?

Well, one extra special thing I got for my birthday is this:

My first ModCloth dress, thank you Greg. I'm so excited to wear it today, you'll see pictures tonight or tomorrow hopefully!

lovelove, M.

I think it's because if you're not doing something special or different on your birthday, then it just feels like every other ordinary day. I will be turning 20 in a few months which is so crazy to me but I'm sure once it comes around I will think nothing of it.

liz said...: Happy Birthday! Make it special, just do something out of the ordinary, or something you used to do as a kid! Yay for not be a teenager anymore, I loved turning a "mature" 20!
I'm sending the presents out today, this way you can celebrate all week :); June 28, 2010 at 9:16 AM
raine said...: Happy birthday! 20 is a weird one, the number changes and you feel like it should be different...but it's not. 21 felt a little more different for me, but I don't drink so it wasn't really a behavioural change...I think after about 18 you just don't feel as much "older" at birthdays as you expect you will.; June 28, 2010 at 9:23 AM
Unknown said...: Ah same! I usually feel like I never do anything too exciting for my birthday (or something I've planned) but last summer I decided to throw a party since I was turning 17 on the 17th, and that's never going to happen again!
Have fun with yours. I can't see you NOT having a fun time with that gorgeous dress!; June 28, 2010 at 9:50 AM

Christina said...: Happy Birthday and welcome to your 20s! I turned 20 a little over 2 months ago, and from my experience I can say it is quite refreshing to start a new decade of life.

What an adorable dress! I have been eying something like that for some time now.; June 28, 2010 at 4:38 PM

I'm a new reader, and I love you blog, but for some reason most of your outfit pictures just show up as big grey rectangles for me! Do you have a flickr ?; June 29, 2010 at 12:57 AM
