30 for 30



I decided to dig something out of the early years for my picture of the week. It is an oldie, but a goodie. Besides, I should share documented proof of my cuteness since it peaked so early. This is me and my cousin Serene, celebrating a joint birthday at my grandparents in upstate New York in July of 1981. As many of you know, I have been thinking a great deal of my upcoming 30th birthday. I am proud to announce that I have selected a personal theme for my festivities. Although I do realize that it sounds like a bit much, let's face it, it is kind of a big birthday, so it really should have a big theme. In true Eva fashion, I have decided not to limit myself to only one single day of celebrations. This year in its entirety is really dedicated to the year of the 30th. So in honor of this momentous milestone, and the fact that not only will I be leaving my twenties behind, but I will also be embarking on a new chapter in my life all together, I am declaring it 30 for 30. That's right, I'm doing 30 exciting, adventurous things for my 30th year. Now 30 is actually quite a big number. I have been brainstorming and penciling in ideas for my list, but it has been a bit challenging. So I am officially soliciting ideas. I would prefer them to be somewhat adventurous and something I have not yet done. Thoughts? I will keep you posted on what makes the list.
