Birthdays

So a couple weeks ago was my birthday. I had to tell someone my age and it was weird to say 20. On the actual day my brother was in town and we hung out for a couple hours, which was really nice. When we got back from the mall (he had a job interview) my roommates had dressed up the door of our apartment. There were balloons, a poster with nice things on it, and sticky notes with compliments and well wishes from people that I know. It was the sweetest thing and I almost cried. It was amazing to know that they cared. In addition there was a bouquet of flowers and cupcakes. And a pinata. We ordered pizza and invited a few people over, it was just right. Later we watched a movie and had more people over. The perfect way to end the night. The only downside is that the guy I like had to leave early to finish his homework.

On Thursday I went home to have dinner and get some presents. We ate fried chicken with potatoes and biscuits. It was so yummy and I ate far too much. I got some great stuff, I got a Toothless build-a-bear, body spray and scrub, earrings and a hoodie thing. I was very happy!

Friday was the finale to my birthday celebrations. We went on a group date - ice skating. Finding a date was a little stressful because the guy I wanted to ask originally broke his toe, and the other 2 were working. So I ended up asking another friend. And it was so stinking fun. We gathered together at my apartment and headed out. There were 6 couples and I think that we all got along pretty well. I am so happy that I went with Jared! He was an awesome date (and it doesn't help that he's darn attractive either). Even though it wasn't exactly what I had planned, I think that it was exactly what I needed. I;m so glad that we did it!

Usually I try not to draw too much attention to my birthday, but this year it seemed like there was a lot of attention on me. I didn't mind too much though, it wasn't an overload just little things that made a difference. I am very happy with how my birthday turned out.

YAY!
