Today was my 26th birthday. 26 ---- so old!!! Sigh…
Normally, I hate my birthday. I’m happy to celebrate other people’s birthdays, but mine always just suck. Something bad always seems to happen (ie my parents getting the day wrong or forgetting all together, my significant other spending the day with his ex-girlfriend instead of me, etc…). So, I never make a big deal out of it, and when possible, I even prefer to go on vacation to just avoid the whole day all together.
But, I woke up today and decided to change my whole outlook and think positively that maybe today would be really great. And it worked: today turned out to be a really nice day. A lot of my friends and family wished me happy birthday, my coworkers took me out to lunch, and my friends had a nice dinner for me. I had a really easy and fun day at work for a change, and I got a really cool birthday present: two of my friends arranged for me to get a private lesson on how to make sushi at my favorite Japanese restaurant. How cool is that?! I’m really excited!
And after feeling so sure that my parents had once again forgotten my birthday, they actually came through and sent me a happy birthday email a few minutes ago!
So, all in all, today was actually a pretty great birthday. Thanks everyone!! *o*
And even though people have been making fun of how old I am now all day, I’m actually pretty excited to turn 26. After all, 25 was a pretty shitty year for me, so being 26 is bound to be better, right?! *o*
