Happy Birthday to Me! (June 27th '08)

June 27, 2008 10:46am CST
Today is my birthday...22 years on this planet! It's a normal day, you know Friday..a working day so nothing special going on. My dad is going to take me out to a fancy restaurant later though (that is so sweet of him) and the boyfriend is going to take me out tomorrow! and he said he has a nice surprise for me. He is the sweetest thing. i am personally not doing anything to special today, just a normal day. I am getting myself some t-shirts from Marvel through amazon.com as a birthday present to myself and a friend of mine in England is also going to be sending me a surprise! H e was telling me that I may get it a bit late but it doesn't matter if it comes late, it's the thought that counts. He always sends me something each year and I do the same. My friends haven't yet called to say Happy Birthday but I got a few texts! It is turning out to be a nice day. I am making my own ice cream and cake as usual. I am going to make an ice cream with nutella swirled into the mix and molten lava cakes. I love making desserts so this makes me more happy than I already am. I got to admit though, I can't believe I'm already 22.

But, today is Saturday where I am so I should be getting my surprise soon! He is coming to meet in about an hour and I am super excited! I will tell you what it is when I get back! Have a good one

How wonderful ! Still young enough to look foward to another birthday....What special imprint will you have on your t-shirt ? Bet it's also difficult for your dad to see you so grown up, too.

Hi MommaSam, Thanks. I am going to get me one with Venom Spiderman on it/ That's Spiderman in his black suit but not the movie one, the one that appears in the comics/cartoons and I might get myself a hulk t-shirt too. I'm still deciding. Yeah. I think it is a bit hard for him to see me at 22 already but he is very supportive of me so it makes it easier on both of us when he sees me doing well I think.

Happy Birthday to you and to me too!!!! I was also born on the same day as you and today I turned 38 older and not younger. I don't feel anything different just another day and a little older. That is all but you have a great day and don't party to hard. If you go out make sure that you have someone else drive and not you if you drink. Again Happy Birthday to YOU!!!

Hello there and a Happy Birthday to you dear friend. You're lucky to have so many people who love you and care for you. And hey, 22 isn't a bad age. You're still young and there's a whole life ahead of you. Be the best you can be.

Thank you vic! lol, you know it's funny but I thought I would have woken up all excited and stuff yesterday. Yet it was my birthday and I treated it like just another day, although as the day went by it sunk in and I had a lovely day with the boyfriend today too. lol...I guess sometimes we reach that age where we don't want to celebrate huh? Just let them put 16 candles on your cake and pretend you are only a teen again!

well, happy birthday to you, my friend.. 22 years is a very young age still. So, you still have many good things to look forward to. Many decisions to make, but I do hope you get to chose the right ones. Many responsibilities along the way. But, I know you must be a very smart young lady and you will take the right path. Many happy years for you and may God give you all the blessings that you need...

Hi eihdra, Thank you so much. You are so right in everything you said there. My main concern is making the right decisions as i go along in life but everyday we learn and hopefully I will continue to expand my knowledge and learn from others so I won't make unnecessary mistakes. Thanks for the good wishes!

Hi metschica, Thank you so much. You are so right, I am definitely blessed to have them in my life. I will soon be 27, time does fly! I bet I'll be sitting and reminiscing on when I was 22 when I get there. Well, my cake isn't ice cream cake but I can still put some ice cream on top your cake! I made individual cupcake like cakes so it'll be a breeze to do that for you.
