post birthday celebration

the rumors are true. i'm 24. i really don't like the sound of that either. that whole saying "one year older and wiser too" or whatever. it sucks. can it just be "one year wiser" instead? because i find that very applicable. and appealing. the older part? not so much.

anyway, the bday was pretty good. i had plans for a bonfire, but they basically got rained out. and the location of said bonfire was flooded. so i threw a party with my closest friends at a apartment complex lounge. pretty low key. cake. balloons. wii. music. dancing. foosball. billiards. it was pretty legit. with legit company too. i have really awesome friends. just sayin. i'm really grateful for them. especially my friends alyssa and melanie and robert. they made so much effort to make my party a success and my birthday enjoyable. i love them to pieces.

oh yeah, also--i broke curfew big time to go see the midnight premier of pirates of the caribbean: on stranger tides with some really cool people. umm that movie is way tight. i wanna see it again. and maybe even a third time. yes. it is that good.

my roommates are such angels--while i was out doing party prep things all day, they decorated our apartment and made me a cake and got me a couple little gifts. i loved it. they even wrote me a nice note and stuff. they are seriously the sweetest. it was a really nice surprise to come home to after my party.

anyway, i got my fisheye camera back into use. i ran out of film, but just bought some more so i can now add to my box full of undeveloped film. ha.

i started flag football with some friends. i feel pretty fortunate to be able to play. and i'm really excited to have something else to do (long story short, my schedule is reallllly easy this semester). the team i play for is called caffeine free. we all know i don't drink anything caffeine free. and the same goes for everyone else i play with. so it's funny. and ironic. haha. so far, we've only had one game which we tied (0-0 cuz they don't do overtime). we have two this week though, so hopefully we'll play well. right now i play runningback and center. i don't know how i landed RB honestly. let's just pray i actually play well enough to keep that privilege.

pictures will come soon!

pre bday wishes?

my birthday is in 2.5 weeks. approximately. I'm turning (shh...) 24. I don't know what to do for it! I'm definitely skipping school. I only have one class that day anyway. the past couple years when I have been here in rexy, I have laid out at rigby "lake" (it's not even a lake really. it's like a big pond) and then gone out to eat or something. last year, i was in Utah visiting a boy. one time, I bought myself lingerie for my birthday. that was fun. this year I really want to do something different though because I'm graduating, so this whole semester is kind of a big deal to me. I just don't know what to do. mayybe I'll throw a party outside? maybe I'll go to Utah again (but not for a boy this time)? maybe I'll go on a trip. I only have like 2 weeks to plan though. Help!
