Happy Birthday to Me!

Hey guess what!?! I’m 18 now. Like I’ve noticed with birthdays past, it’s just another day. It’s not like you age one whole year on the night before your birthday. But just the fact that you have lived that extra day entitles you to silly things like drivers licenses and library cards.

I also registered to vote on the same day I got my library card. I’m set for the whole responsible lifestyle thing.

For presents I got some cute clothes from my mother, and my brother and sister-in-law got me The Batman: Season 3 on DVD. Then my mother also sent me some beautiful flowers at work, which was a very sneaky way of making sure everybody at work knew it was my birthday. I loved it.

Since I had to work on my birthday my sister-in-law, Holly, baked me a delicious cake the night before. And my niece, Emma, made me a music maker and a card, and we had a very nice little shindig. Although my brother would tell you the best part of the night were the trick candles Holly snuck onto the cake, my opinion differs. It was very disconcerting to watch the candles pop back to life after I had blown them out. Over all, it was a very nice birthday.
