Just when I think I can’t go on…
I pop some bubbly and regain my strength.
The strength I need to keep on going; the strength I need to cling to, even when it seems like all is lost.
Here’s to being 25.
Keep On Truckin’

Can’t wait for an apt/Ikea/etc tour!
before…and after?
Hi there, just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy reading your blog and just love the photos you have taken, especially the wine tour. PS I went to IKEA and it was a nightmare, but I got my cupboards and they are installed now. Hope you had a better time.
OOPS PS Happy birthday, ahhhhhhhhh 25 I remember it well. I am turning 39 and look the same as I did when I was 25 (lucky me). LOL.
Happy Birthday! If you think 25 is old, try 33! Your young! Where did you get that cute shirt? It’s soooo Bay Area ~ I grew up there
^meant to say “you’re” young. you being a writer can appreciate my correction right? also, just as a side note, i’m just now reading “PREP,” ~ I absolutely love Curtis’s writing style, such a good read!! Her style kind of reminds me of yours actually. i’m moving onto “American Wife” soon.
25 is nothin. Still in the ‘mid 20′s’. Just wait til you’re ‘almost 30′! haha
Happy birthday 
Yes, your a baby still girl! Oh I wish I could have been 25 forever…
Can’t wait to see pics of the new place..maybe no more eating off of the floor? LOL.
Happy Birthday Jenna!
Happy birthday! Love that shirt.
happy quarter of a century, jenna! now the real FUN begins
Nothing like liquid courage.
Here’s to 25! Life only gets better with age. Happy Birthday!
IKEA furniture: the best gift ever
My big problem was turning 20 because I loved being 19 so much but by the time I turned 23 I got over that. I thought turning 25 would be a piece of cake in comparison until I remembered the rules of rounding up!!!! Eek!! 30!!!
And after all of that- Happy Birthday!
And after all of that- Happy Birthday!
