19

This week my nineteenth birthday was on Wednesday. With a nine A.M. quiz I was not exactly in the spirit that I usually was. It was weird not waking up to breakfast or faces in my room waking me up, but I was never really a big birthday person anyways. I woke up and get ready like every other morning, the only thing different was the weather, which turned beautiful. Somehow the weather had cleared up and not rained and also jumped at least thirty degrees and it was wonderful. I was able to walk to my first class in a tee-shirt and jeans, which is an entire three-sixty from my jackets and coats that I have been bundling up in.
My mom and dad both sent me messages on my birthday, and it was just weird not to see them or really even talk to them. Also, not to be in school or hanging out with my good friends was a big change for me. It honestly was like any other day, but I kind of liked it. I was able to just chill out and relax instead of a busy, fast paced day. I am going to go home tonight, so I’m sure my family and friends will make up for the difference in days then!

  1. Happy belated birthday! That is really weird to think about and i dont know if i would like it! My birthday is on a weekend this year so hopefully i will be going home for my birthday! That would be nice, but its nice you got to go home and see your family. I am sure they all celebrated with you just like old times when you celebrated! It probably was nice though just finally having a day to relax on your birthday!

  2. I think birthdays and holidays, like Christmas, are just another day, now. I don't know what happened, but I never know what I want for my birthday or Christmas anymore and I never get excited to open presents. I don't know if it is just me, but those days just seem like another day. I still enjoy my birthday, but the real day for all of us is our 21st birthday. I don't think anyone could disagree with that assessment. Happy late birthday Ashley!

  3. Happy late B-day Brink-a-dink! lol. I feel the same way about my birthdays. It's just the same as when you're younger. They just don't seem as important as they were. I agree with Joe. 21 will be here soon for both of us. Sooner for me though!
