You know what’s funny? I can’t cook, I can’t paint my own nails, little babies frighten me because they are so small (and are secretly adorable), and I still have the nerve to call myself a young woman. So what if I am convinced that the Style Network and E! News Live is for women what ESPN is for men. Hundreds of times a week I wish for a different life, and thousands of times a day I am thankful for the life that I am fortunate enough to live.
While most mothers were preparing to bring in the new year (or decade, if you will), and trying to figure out how they will nurse their awful hangover and still be able to take care of their kids – my mom was bringing me into this world, with a nurse by her side. It was 5:58AM on 12.31.79, and Carter was still President of the United States!
Sometimes it occurs to me that because I have an interesting birthday that I too am interesting.I must note that I am fatigued with people who always ask me, “so what’s it like having your birthday so close to the holidays – do people always forget about you?†Or, “Do people give you multiple gifts or just one?†Basically, people generally forget and to me it's just another day.
Allow me to introduce myself: I am outspoken, proud to be an American, outgoing, wholesome, confused, savvy, honest, charitable, classy, neurotic, intuitive, a 3rd wave generation feminist, selfish, unselfish, witty, a perfectionist, reliable, Jewish (although I graduated from an all-girls’, catholic high school), dedicated, resourceful, adventurous, articulate, perceptive, forgiving, sensitive, courageous, self-motivated, dorky, intelligent, obsessive compulsive, a believer in fate and coincidences, and extremely passionate about figuring out who I really am, and what I am doing with my life. Did I mention that I am afraid of large bodies of water? They petrify me – in fact, the film “Free Willy†scared me to death. I am not sure why I have this phobia, because it never really developed until later in my life.
For some reason, every day strangers approach me and feel the need to talk with me or just smile and not say a thing, sometimes it makes me paranoid - but hey, it takes two to stare right?!?! I value the little things in life- often times the things that others fail to even notice or just chose to dismiss. I am definitely unique, but that’s what make’s me normal I guess.
To sum it up, I was born on the last day of a funky decade, a decade soon to be a brain fart for the, “generation x†era. An era that welcomed with open arms – the brick phone, coined the phrase “yuppie,†and loved anything spandex. A time when it was cool to wear Swatch watches six to an arm and have your acid washed jeans pegged at the bottom. A time when mullets were rad, and movies like, “Sixteen Candles", “Gooniesâ€, and the “Breakfast Club†defined our generation (think we may still think some of this is cool).
