The Birthday Person is ME~
Today has definitely not been the most glorious birthday in the history of humanity (or even just me), not by a long shot. Getting up in the morning at 7am to finish an essay, with only 4 hours of sleep? Having lectures at University until 7pm? Having to go and buy my own cake on the way home? Not quite the ideal way for a birthday, at least in my mind.
... To not discredit this tale of woe, we shall of course all very conveniently ignore the fact that the lack of sleep and early morning were pretty much my own fault. Procrastinating, who, me? Oh no, surely not! *cough, adjusts halo* However, I do maintain the opinion that making me go buy my own cake after getting out from classes that late was quite uncalled for.
Surprising amount of people actually remembered my birthday and send some kind of message of congratulations. Some of the people remembering was quite unexpected, but definitely very heart-warming! On the other side, there were also people whom I was sort of expecting to get birthday wishes from who didn't acknowledge this remarkable event in any way~! Not that I can probably really hold it against most of them, seeing how I'm horrible myself when it comes to remembering birthdays. Still, all the more reason for me to be really grateful to everyone who send me birthday wishes! The messages really touched me and brightened my day~ ^_^
Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, I don't appear to be having too big of an age crises this time around. I suppose 26 isn't that much worse than 25. I mean, 25 already pushed me closer to being 50 than to being born, started the scary countdown to the big 3-oh and put me past the "best before" date in terms of getting hitched. Not much 26 can do to top that list, I guess. XD
