It was my birthday yesterday, and I have to say, it began like any other day. My sister was yelling at me to hurry in the shower, me getting ready for school. Nothing was too different. I had class in the morning, and then had a 2 hour break before my next afternoon class. My idea was to go to the library and study, and print a paper that was due. My friend Elaina talked me into getting food first, when I think back now, everyone was kind of acting weird, and up to something, but at the time I was completely oblivious to what they were doing. I didnt think too much of it, and proceeded to buy my lunch. We then went to a different sitting area and I turned the corner and had all my friends starting singing happy birthday to me. They had bought me this cake for me for my birthday. Ice cream -- my favorite!! I was so stunned and shocked. I started to tear up, it was the sweetest thing. I have only known these people for a month and they are already treating me like a best friend.
I am so blessed.
After getting out of school early I went home and spent time relaxing, I started my long list of thank yous to the facebook posts, and painted my nails. Then it was time to open presents with the family. My sister Emily brought this huge sign out, what a sweetheart. I was spoiled from my parents with a bunch of really great and much needed gifts. I love them. I again, am so blessed.
I then went to dinner with some really great friends. Had some good food, good conversations, good quality time. I then, was surprised with this amazing dessert. YUM.
I spent time with the girls after, and just had chill time. I loved every minute of my birthday, and cannot recall having that kind of feeling on my birthday for a very long time. I am now 22 years old. And I wish I could come up with something clever to say about that age, but I just really cant. I am blessed to still be alive and breathing, and to be surrounded by many many people who love and care about me.
My 22nd birthday was the best.
