30 Things Every Woman Should Have And Should Know By The Time She's 30

dumbest 30 things ever

I hate all of these lists but I also hate being told what to do esp when I am already doing it and AM NOT LOOKING FOR LIFE ADVICE. So even though that list is fine, I hate it.

I feel the same way. I don't know if it's just an adolescent bristling at anyone telling me what I should be doing, but it sets my teeth on edge.

The heart wants what the heart wants. You should know that you're 30

Got it Mordy will email back on Monday :)

tbf, "dude with a boner can't think straight" is borderline some 1950-shit

yeah, no kidding, I can't think straight even when I am NOT tumescent

Your ability to speak honestly about your weaknesses, failures and disappointments is your greatest strength.

I'm really good at this but I don't know that I would consider it a strength, necessarily...?

more like whininess amirite

crippling depression a beautiful strength

Let yourself be happy when you’re happy.

OK THIS is advice I should have heeded years ago.

I have none of these (I'm guessing an Ikea computer chair and a crappy MFI desk with ill-fitting drawers don't count for my not-handed-down furniture) and have learnt none of these but the biggest gift of my 30s is the growing realisation that I don't actually care about most of them

My Nan (RIP) gave me an umbrella with big-eyed kittens on for my 30th birthday; I thought she had just forgotten that I was not 6 any more, but this thread makes it a v. appropriate gift I guess

Worry about letting things you want to do slide without DOING THEM, you will regret it I say!!! DOnt think "I can do that later/when I have more money/when I have time". Carpe the damn diem.

I think I spent my late teens / early 20s not doing creative things because I was waiting for someone to tell me that my creative stuff was good enough to be worth taking to the ~next level~ of actually working on and showing to people, except I never showed anybody it, so how was anyone ever going to, etc etc

(and right now I am not visiting places I'd like to see because I have no money and it's hard to book time off but mainly because I'm not good at the planning related to travelling, should work on that too I guess)
