9/11/06 Okay so today is my birthday. I am now officially 19 years old. I don't feel very different. I feel awesome because I am wearing a home-made pin from Nicole that says "IT'S MY BIG DAY!" Its pretty grand. But anyway. The real reason I'm talking about my birthday is because I'm 19. I want to feel different this year. Not because I wish more wonderful things would have happened to me by now, I do, but what my huge deal is about my 19th year is... When I was little and I would play pretend, I always wanted to be 19. A couple months ago my mom reminded me of that. I hadn't really thought much about it. She said she wondered if anything big was gonna happen to me this year and she hoped something great would happen. Its like my desire to be 19 was foreshadowing and that I would experience something wonderful in the 19th year of my life. I hope this is the big year.
9/12/06 It's now the day after my birthday. I never posted this last night because everything just happened so fast yesterday. It was a wonderful day though. I woke up and went to class and I didn't see Adam (my boyfriend) like I do sometimes and I hadn't seen him all weekend. I was worried something was wrong. He kinda seemed to be avoiding me.I saw him after my last class and we were going to hang out. He was still acting strange but he was telling me everything was fine. He told me he'd meet me at my house because he had to help his friends with something but when I got home I COULD NOT look in my closet until he got there. "Why can't I look in my closet?" "Because I told you not to. So don't." So I went home wondering what the hell was going on and resisted the temptation to look in my closet. He came over and asked if I looked and I told him I didn't so he told me I could go ahead and look. Sitting on the floor of my closet was a vase of 6 pinkish white roses. "The store was out of tulips, so I got these instead." Tulips are my favorite flower. Adam had gotten in touch with Christine to help him get flowers for me and put them in my room all sneakily without me ever knowing. So Adam and I then went to the beach and hung out there almost all day. He told me to bring a change of clothes with me and I asked why, and he said we were going straight to dinner afterward. So we go to dinner and then afterward he wants to walk around downtown. At this point I have no suspicions of anything else whatsoever. I'm looking forward to the little party I'd be having later. So Adam and I just stay out until we have to pick up Cheryl. So we go get Cheryl from work and I talk to some of the other people from work and tell them to come over when they get out. So Cheryl, Adam and I walk into my house and I try to turn on the light and I yell to Christine about why the light won't turn on and she says its burnt out so I'm yelling to turn a light on as I'm walking up the stairs and I get hit with a wave of balloons and then another wave of confetti. It was awesome. I had no idea there was more surprises. Adam and Christine totally had this entire birthday surprise plot for me. It was so cute.
Then we started drinking. A few other people were in and out: Ian and 2 of his friends, Stephanie, Isaac and Frank. I got trashed. It was beautiful. I had an amazing birthday. From Nicole's presents to all my surprises and then the wonderful party... I have to say that this birthday was way better than the one 5 years ago.
