So, I'm now 24 hours into being 25... and I don't feel particularly different, but then I suppose I didn't really expect to feel older overnight.

Birthdays are interesting things. I've always been quite into celebrating my birthday but this year it seems to have hauled quite a few feelings out into the ether and dragged a few contacts back into my mobile phone which i'd hoped were long gone. at the same time it seems to have highlighted to me even more that those i wish were there just aren't there anymore.

things are changing, for me and for those i'm closest to. i'm starting to get used to the idea of change, but i'm also wishing certain things could have stayed the same.

that's getting older, i guess. maybe that's growing up.
