hey everyone...it was my birthday today.
wow, i've been so stressed and tired lately it sort of crept up on me and i didn't even realise. i remember all the other previous years i'd jump around and remind people constantly for at least two weeks beforehand...but this year...sigh.
i've been working non-stop for the past few days or so now, as has everyone at uni, and i paused for today and came to uni extremely reluctantly to hand in an assignment due today. i half-slept on the train and was feeling really tired and thirsty and incredibly cranky and even more so when i found out that the assignment wasn't due today...
but you know what? i have these three fabulous friends at uni and they ambushed me and wished me a happy birthday and gave me the coolest present ever (a voucher for Harry 3 on dvd with Colin Firth's head super-imposed over daniel radcliffe's face) and an equally cool dud present (framed photos of my fianceé in a white shirt rising out of a lake in true firth style) and i just died on the spot from pure feeling...
ok ok i burst into tears. (which never happens, everyone used to think my tear ducts were removed at birth) but it was just such a cap off; i was feeling like complete shit and then to be greeted like this....it was just such a gigantic thing that these guys would go through all of this when we're at our most hectic time at uni. in fact that they would go through this at all is just the coolest...
mel and katie and mark...you guys rock my world.
