Birthday Recap

Yesterday was my actual birthday but I celebrated it Wednesday night at school because my roommate was leaving on Thursday morning, along with last night. Let me just say that my roommate is the absolute best! She completely surprised me. Although it really wasn't hard because I am oblivious to everything. I loved everything about the night.

She spent a few days home and when she came back she had a cake, balloons, banners, and a gift for me. My friends help her distract me and keep me out of the room Wednesday night so she could set everything up without me knowing. I had no clue anything was up even after they acted strange.

I had been in my friends', Jill and Erika, room when my roommate, Bridget, came in and got me. We went to my room and three of my other friends, Miranda, Forrest, and Bruce, were in there along with all of the decorations. I was in complete shock. I couldn't believe she did this all for me.

Her sister made the cake. The reason it has Robin in parenthesis is because we call each other Batman and Robin. She painted the frame and I also have one other gift coming in the mail that wasn't here yet. I loved my night and am so thankful for her.

I didn't do much for my actual birthday. I did get texts, tweets, and instagram shoot outs from friends and family. I was actually surprised at how many people acknowledged my birthday. I went for a job interview in the morning and when my family came home I got a cake, cards, and gifts. The gifts from my parents are still in the mail.

They got me a necklace the stone will be my birth stone and a sweatshirt. On the back of the sweatshirt it will say my university name. I love them both so much. I actually had a necklace like that on my Etsy favorites. For dinner we had Boston Market because they had a ton of running around to do. We sang happy birthday to me after they came home that night from something at my brother's school. Really it was a nice, relaxing day and by the time I went to bed I had felt so loved.
