In which I have a birthday, get presents, fangirl, and life is good
Yeah, okay, I know I was supposed to write about Niko and I's break up, but I rather find posting about my birthday party to be a much happier venture.
Anyway, what happened on the 25th was that I basically planned for a nice get together of the peeps for some hookers and ice cream games with blow up sex dolls hammers and general bouncing around inflated castles etc etc. So, in order to celebrate my 19th birthday I decided we should all act like we'd mentally regressed a decade and acted like 9 years olds on too much sugar. Unfortunately, this dastardly plot plan never came to fruition, because once we got there, there were too many kids, and most importantly, too many Islanders. Get squashed by people who are two KFC family buckets away from tilting the world off its rotational axis? Or even worse, that they start getting their own gravity mass and develop an orbit, which will pick up the surrounding victims and basically create an asteroid belt made of little children? NO THANKS.
Thus we ditched our plans and went for some pool instead, which is always a fun and safe thing to do, Janet with a long, sharp stick notwithstanding. She tripped over her own stick, shall we say. And it was good even though I lost most games I didn't care because I had my beloved peeps with me and that's really all that ever mattered. I got some lovely presents too, like these GORGEOUS Pandora charms from Janet, Rui and Amy (in the shape of a blue turtle because they're ahem, 'slow') and one from Woon Suan, in the shape of a 'swan' because Suan = Swan and I always call her Woon Suanny (and yeah I know it makes no sense). I got this lovely necklace and matching bracelet from Michelle, and I got musical note/treble clef earrings from Amy and it's awesome because I always sign my name 'J' like a treble clef and I love music =DDD I also got this awesome wax steal stamp along with two sticks of wax from Niko and Yang-chan, and I like, totally adore it beyond measure. Niko knew I'd wanted the thing ever since I went on that trip with his parents to Whakatane, of all rural backwater places. I had to leave the thing the first time I saw it even though I wanted it LIKE BURNING because it was too expensive but they got it for me and I'm like delirious with SQUEE.
Haha and I'd said that the only presents required were hugs, but who listened?
I had an amazing trek on that day. I woke up in the morning and basically it was non-stop action from there. From getting dressed to getting to the city, and then buying a cake and then coming back, and then going to Annie's house to give her a comforting slice of Oreo cake (she couldn't come to the party because she's terribly sick and I felt awful) and then trekking with the cake all the way from my house to Fruit World. The cake had a pretty eventful journey actually, all things considered. From the city to my house to Fruit World, back to the city where we fooled around at pool then went to the Korean restaurant with the strangely Japanese picture of a rape scene in Osaka (don't ask, and no, it wasn't a typo). So when we ate it, it was all the more tastier for its holy pilgrimage and we savoured every bite.
We had awesome banter the entire day. During one particularly memorable moment, Ruokai was telling us how September was the month for supporting the fight against testicular and prostate cancer, and how we should all go for checkups. And it was either Rui or Janet that said "Yup, gonna go for mine soon." And Brandon was like, "You've got a checkup?" (slightly paraphrased, but that's the gist). OMG TEH LULZ!!1!! And Ruokai continued with Med 101 (even though he does Pharmacy) saying how a man's prostate 'balloons out' when he gets older, and here I quipped, "Does that mean it needs a prick?" XD (yes I laugh at my own jokes... )
Of course I never missed an opportunity to subtly imply (read: subtle like a brick to the forehead) that since it was my birthday, wouldn't Niko and Ruokai just indulge me...? Of course it was a resounding NO from Niko. Hmph. Spoilsport.
Oh and Amy was telling me how she thinks that Niko and I are the most amazing breakup she's ever seen haha. We're both still talking with each other and joking and hugging etc. There's also the minutest traces of flirting, but that's really just us being ourselves. Plus, it's rather overshadowed by my humongous crush on Niko+Ruokai yanno? *_* God they'd be my one real life OTP.
All in all, a wonderful way to spend one’s 19th. When Janet asked me what being 19 felt like, I said the same as being 18. This all hasn’t sunk in yet. I still feel immature retarded hurp derp derp derp derp young at heart.
