Talk Thirty To Me

My 30th birthday was 42 days ago, so yes, this post is looooooong overdue.

Sigh. I've legit got the BEST humans in my corner. For one, I had never had a surprise birthday dinner party before, and my family and close friends threw one for me - EFFORTLESSLY. 

To be honest, I still get overwhelmed with emotions when I think about it *happy tear drop*

Not forgetting to add that I took a much deserved birthday trip to Seychelles and of course, it was AH-MAZING to say the least!

Side note: I went all out and had three photo-shoots, two of which featured my 'twin niece' (she turned 1 on my birthday!), and my two sisters-in-law, who also turn 30 this year. Trust me, the paparazzi wasn't the initial plan but it was so worth it. 

Third time's the charm. Pun intended *wink*

This birthday was by far the BEST I have ever had. It left me with the hope that there are certainly much more to come, that's for sure. 

And to think I was freaking out last year cause I had just one more year to the end of my 20s. Pssssh! 

I made a firm decision in January to be more intentional about my mental health, peace of mind, and career growth. 

This required me to resign from my place of work, get certified in Digital Marketing and much to my surprise (as this wasn't entirely part of the plan), start my own Digital Marketing and Graphics Design business - '@kiki.did.dat' (the business name is subject to change but I guess this will do for now, yeah?)

Let's just say that right now, I feel blessed, no stress, and I am steady looking forward to the rest. (Barrrzzz! Haha!)

They say that pictures (and videos) are worth a thousand words, so I'll leave you with these. 

It's the customized menu for me!

Coco De Mer: Seychelles' Pride and Joy

PS: This is the female specie, which looks like a vagina.

The male specie looks like - yep, you guessed right. A penis.

Took a little bit of Seychelles (and a couple more seashells) with me.
