Monday was my 24th birthday. I decided back in Thailand that this birthday was going to be great. October rolled around, and I found my self, suprisingly, dreading my day of birth. The day got closer and closer and I was not looking foward to spending the day alone- as in without a significant other. I know that sounds lame, but I'm just going to be honest. I pretty much just wanted to hid under my very small kitchen table for the whole day. Then I snapped myself out of my personal pity party and decided I was going to have a killer birthday. Below is how to have the best 24th birthday ever.
1. Make your own dark chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter icing with your little sister to bring to work
2. smile and nod as all your co-workers wish you a happy birthday as they chow down your delish treat
3. Try to go to a cool vegetarian restuarant for dinner, but settle for the Pita Pit when you find out the restaurant is actually closed on Mondays.
4. Stop by the ward halloween party and have your friends remind everyone just one more time that it is your birthday and to stop by my place for cake.
5. Throw yourself a bday party in your landlords upstairs apartment.
6. Play Cranium and "celebrity" with a group of 20 hot boys and your favorite girls from the ward while eating better-than-sex cake.
7. Answer all you bday call wishes and try not to let the phone go to voice mail (this can be v. challenging).
8. Repaly the hillarious e-card your girl friend in Oklahoma City sent you 4 times and laugh each time- with your little sister watching of course.
9. Enjoy the gifts- the bon jovi shirt, hello kitty uno cards, and the wooden spoon from Paul which has the purpose of keeping the next guy you date from getting too fresh with you.
10. Hang out with they guys that stuck behind at the party and play cards with them for another hour.
I think this was one of my best adult birthdays ever, and to think, I was dreading it so much. Happy Birthday to me!
