Sana Heeeeeelwa ya gamila, happy birthday to me!
Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes and to Mahmoudi for the special midnight birthday jig and the amazing cake decorating equipment, which will allow me to exercise a little creative energy in service of my eternal quest to make you all chubby.
I’m really happy with 30. Here are some things I can do now that I couldn’t do last year:
1) Do handstands
2) Play squash
3) Small talk with grandmothers in Arabic
4) Count the colors in my hair (red, yellow and purple currently, if you’re wondering)
5) Cook mujadara
6) Say that I got to hang out with my brother not once but twice in the past year (after 3 years of being thwarted by bureaucracy)
7) Proclaim – with confidence – that the world’s best burrito is made in Berlin
8) Plan a wedding
9) Make cupcakes profitable
10) Create a small Wikipedia empire
11) Knit a monkey!
… and several others not fit for public broadcast ☺
It’s been a good year, has it not?
