lol I am 28 and on my way to 30.  It is a little scary in thought to be reaching that age already, but at the same time, I don't feel that old, nor do I look it.  So, that is what helps me not feel so bad about turning 30.  I think 30 is a great age...you're not too young, but not too old.  However, I think it should be a turn in life for everyone.  What I mean is that it should kick in your maturity or being wiser...or caring about your health more, exercising, or caring about your family a lot more...  I feel it should be a turning point in everyone's life for the better...not for the worse though.  I feel you should look a life to be more precious and to enjoy it even more.  You should try new things, upgrade your look, travel to a new place, or just anything that will make you feel good about being 30.

this summer i'll be 25 and i really can't wrap my head
around it. i realize that in the grand scheme of things,
that's still young. however, i feel like "25" sounds so
grown-up... but i don't. i don't feel like i should
be half of 50 yet.

time is a strange thing and i never knew how i felt about
the saying, "age is just a number" but the older i get,
the more my age doesn't correspond with my thinking
or being. i'll forever be young, despite my age, i feel.

I'm two days away from my big 3-0...I feel bummed about it sometimes but mostly because I have to dye my hair, not just for fun anymore. And I just bought my first wrinkle treatment to help keep my face looking young.

SHUT UP SHOPANGIE28!!!!!! I'd give anything to be 30 again!!!!!!

I didn't have any problems turning 30 and now I will be turning 40 this year and still no problems.  I just don't put much stock in age.  I like the saying you are as young as you feel.  I have my aches and pains physically (arthritis, fibromyalgia, etc) but I just don't feel old or older.

Awww, don't cry. If it makes you feel better I'm turning 28 today. In two years I will be 30 myself. I'll tell you how I feel about it when I get there.

No. Nobody can stop the aging process. You breathe oxygen everyday, you eat and sleep everyday, so it’s impossible to not grow old. Remember, age is just a number.

I turned 30 in January and I don't feel any different

I'm 30 also. Just turned 30 like 2 weeks ago. I feel younger physically, but emotionally I feel wiser and mature. It seems like I cry more now to movies, or things just affect me more for some reason. But, many of my friends feel that they are old and don't stay physically active   ...hmmm, no wonder they feel old!! If you take great care of yourself, your age is just a number. I am fortunate that I was blessed with "young looks" genes. Anyone who knows me will tell you I look like a 16 year old girl....lol.....I take that as a compliment and it always cheers me up!

I had the 39th anniversary of my 30th birthday in January.  Where in the heck did all these years go???  I kinda remember my 30th....I think that's the year I had a meltdown and went out and got my ears pierced or some silly thing....LOL

Just remember that 30 is the new 20 and the alternative to growing older is defiantly worse. I will soon be 60 and feel 40. I may not look it but I feel it and that's what counts.

[CHANEYLAKEGIRL]

Age doesn't bother me either. My mother always says, What's the alternative? My kids are adults now and the hubby and I are enjoying new freedoms and looking forward to new adventures.

hey 30 is a piece of cake wait gtill you get to 50 and you start to ache alot more.

[rockeledjones]

I didnt, I am enjoying my 30's, they have been great to me so far.  But a long way till I hit 40, that might be scary!!!
