In which I ponder the meaning of life...
Nov. 17th, 2003 05:31 pmOk so I don't really ponder the meaning of life in this entry, but maybe next week. So, despite my mopey post on Friday where I complained that I was gonna have no friends around for my birthday, it turned out ok. So now you all get the full story and I promise you it's good.
So first there's Friday night. I stayed up till 1 am finishing my Take Your Draco to Work Story. It came out to 18 pages!!! And it's the first time in years I've finished a story that I started. I was feeling accomplished. Then Saturday was my birthday!!! w00t! So I got up at noon and went shopping with my mother and sister. We went to Bob's and got a cute red sweater thing. Then I went to Border's for the self-indulgence I mentioned before. It would have worked if they had the books I wanted!!! Grr... So instead, as another present to myself, I bought the first book of the Demon Diary manga series (since none of the others were in) and I think I love it to death. Yes... Then we went to the craft store and I bought a butt-load of yarn and needles and stuff to start my scarf. (got blue, grey and green) Then it was funny cuz my mom freaked b/c she left her credit card at Bob's and we had to go back. Went out to dinner (chinese *^.^*) and was embarassed when they sang happy birthday to me and brought me free cake. I then had more cake when I got home. I also got the LotR calendar I wanted so much. (was happy) Sunday was blah, except that I taught myself how to knit and then found out that the circular needle I bought was too big and I couldn't start. And thus begins the grand hogwarts scarf mission... with failure. sigh...
It's weird knowing I'm eighteen. I mean I can legally....
buy tobacco (except i don't smoke and won't start
vote (too bad I loathe politics)
buy porn (*blush snort* yeah right)
buy lotto tix (too bad I'd lose)
be called an adult (too bad my parents don't see it)
On second thought, maybe 18 isn't that great. My life really isn't that different, and it's just another year in which I probabaly won't accomplish much of anything. Hmm... I always come off as all sad and low self-esteemish (is that a word?) in my LJ posts. Oh well. Snort. Well, happy new age year to me!
