Twenty-one.
I am a relative mellow person. I acknowledge and accept that. I also find it slightly frustrating when I feel like I have to not be mellow/do something exciting for my birthday because people want me to.
Two of my cousins flew down from norcal for my birthday and while I’m grateful and feel very loved that they did that just for me, I also felt guilty because they like to party and I’m just not that much of a party person. I felt too bloated to eat or drink anything more before I consumed that much alcohol… which I guess is good because I was slightly worried/scared that my cousins were going to help me reach my limit of drinking. But nope, that limit is still unknown. I also felt guilty because my boyfriend was hungover the day after my birthday instead of me… but despite his queasy stomach and headaches, he still went to Disneyland to watch fireworks and Fantasmic with me. <3
My 21st birthday was interesting. Not really memorable for anything really really good or really really bad or really really crazy. I really should just relax on my birthday next time, and just have a picnic or something. But, I am really thankful for… Emku and Jemma for being so awesome and sticking with me on my birthday despite a full day at work and the uneventful-ness of the night, Mike for stopping by, Yeonhee for being so excited to buy me a drink, Ilean, Andrew for a multitude of things, my cousins for coming down and treating me to my many many birthday foods and drinks, and my aunt for coming down to Disneyland to hang out. I’ve missed her family a lot and I can’t wait for summer when I can visit them over weekends. :) After seeing her, though, I’m super ready for finals to be over and to go back home. Three. More. Weeks.
