100 days from now, I’ll turn 30.

Realizing this has left me a little contemplative about growing up, aging, expectations and mortality. It’s not all doom and gloom, but as I let my thoughts wander on these subjects, I’m struck at the diversity of my opinions and experiences on the whole matter.

A Look Back at 2011: The Year of the Zoll
