I finally celebrated my 19th birthday on Saturday. :) It seemed like I was the last one out of all my friends to turn 19. I'm definitely the baby of my little group, but I always get bombarded with everyone’s problems and taking care of people who have had way too much fun. Anyways, the weekend was great, I pretty much have great birthdays every year. My family and my best friend Lisa took me out to dinner on Friday night. There was 10 of us in all, so we had to wait for over an hour at some Asian restaurant in Turkey Creek. I did get a free dessert so that was awesome. Bananas and ice cream are definitely meant for each other.

On Saturday, I actually woke up happy. I mean, I don't wake up sad or anything every day, but I usually wake up grumpy or just tired. I guess birthdays will do that to you. My roommate and two of my friends piled into my car and we drove to IHOP. We all ate way too much, but had a really fun time. Then we drove up to the mall and walked around. We had to stop at the pet store, Lisa and I have pretty much a relationship with the people who work there since we go there way too much. The best part was that they had the dog I've been wanting for a few years. A puggle. :) *its a pug-beagle mix* Of course I would never pay the outlandish prices they put up at the pet store, but I did get to hold it! Too bad dorms don't allow puppies. That would definitely be interesting. On our way back to the dorm we decided to go ice skating. I haven't been ice skating since elementary school, so it was quite an experience. Saturday is not really the best time to go with all the people there. We kept getting almost run over by little kids. I really want to go again, but on a weekday when no one is there.

I finished my night at my friend Rob's house. All of my friends were there and we had a little too much fun. But what can I say, it was my birthday. I can't wait till next year :)

Wha'ts everyone else's favorite birthday experience?
