Hey people.
So, to begin with, for those of you TOO LAZY to check out my profile, my birthday was about 19 days ago. Whoop-dee-doo.
I'M FOURTEEN, PEOPLE!
Although actually, I wasn't too psyched about it. I woke up that morning, expecting to feel all Zen, you know, all Yin and Yang. Like, I'm older, I'm wiser, I'm stronger, I'm more randomly awesome.
Nope.
I woke up feeling normal. You know, I wasn't any taller, any more cofident. Despite the fact that I wore my Glow-in-the-Dark "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" badge**, I went to school feeling not so sparkly.
My not-so-sparkliness only increased when I went to school and we spent the rest of the day doing nothing (we'd just finished Finals, and it was that time of year where you do nothing). Usually, we'd all be pumped at no lessons, but the day was spent playing Uno and Connect 4. Not the best way to spend your fourteenth. ***
Here are my presents. I love them all, but I do have some comments.
a) A mug with a cat face, courtesy of Lyn
(I love it, Lyn, but when you gave it to me, you remarked that you got it because it reminded you of me. I look like a cheesily grinning cat? Usually, I wouldn't mind, but on my birthday, when I wanna look older and more sophisticated, a fat smiley cat ISN'T the best look.)
b) A lamp in the shape of a giant bottle with seashells, courtesy of Clarice
(Clarice - it's an awesome lamp, but were you aware of the fact that it was bright orange? Yes, on the outside it was a pretty peach colour, all soothing and calming, but when I snapped it on that night it was like sleeping in a volcano, like I was Charmander or something.)****
c) A 'Girls Rock' T-shirt, courtesey of Michelle
(Loved it, Chelle, but did I detect you saying you have one too? We could totally be T-shirt buddies? Is that cute, or kind of sickening?)
d) A butterfly necklace, courtesy of Nicky Ann
(It's absolutely gorgeous, but it's a little tight, apple*****. In fact, the first time I wore it I was worried it might be a bracelet, until I realied it was a choker, and MEANT to be that way. Whoever coined the term 'choker' had their money in the right place.)
e) Money, courtesy of Fatehah
(About twenty bucks. Well, money's money, and I can buy what I want with it.)
Like I said, I LOVED them all (<3), style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);" size="4">A BRAND - FREAKING - NEW LAPTOP!!!
I know, right? My very own. I'm actually typing in this post on it, my very first blog post on this baby. It's bright red and ready to go. Its name?
ROD-HOT-FLAME.
Brilliant, huh? It's shiny and sleek, and freaking red. I love it so much.
It's got a webcam, and Skype, so once I figure out how to rig it up, ****** I can talk to my buddies Marsh and Naddo. Brilliant, eh? I'm also planning to get MovieMaker, so when aforementioned Marsh and Naddo (oh, crap! Almost forgot Nuzzie! Sorry, Nuzzie!!) AND Nuzzie, we can make our own movie, cuz I know Marsh will forget her laptop, or forget to charge it.
That certainly brightened up my birthday. I love this freaking thing like a puppy.
I actually had a lot more to write here (the thing related to the title, otherwise known as the last - sniff! - day of school) but my mum's calling so I gotta go. I'll continue it as soon as I can.
Bye guys,
Random Awesome who LOVES YOU VEWWY MUCH
P.S. All the little asterisks in this post? Instead of doing brackets, I've decided to do footnotes. Enjoy!
* Bipolarism, in case you didn't know, is a condition where the person who is, uh, bipolar, has EXTREME mood swings. One moment, they're wildly happy, like they're high, the next they're utterly depressed. It doesn't sound too dangerous, but it is. When they're depressed, they go so far as to commit suicide. When they're happy, well, I heard this case once when this woman who was bipolar was so happy she went around killing people. All because she was happy. She reminds me a bit of Marsh. No offence.
**Are you all jealous of said badge? You should be. It's totally awesome.
*** Especially since I kept freaking losing at them!! I SUCK at Connect 4.
**** Pokemon love.
***** If you're confused by the apple thing, it's a nickname me and Nicole use for each other. Just to clear things up.
****** Easier said than done. I'm the last person you'd think of when it comes to technology in general. I can blow up a TV just by looking at it. I still don't really know how to work my microwave.
P.P.S Clarice, who I mentioned in this post, also has a blog. Check her out. (www.teenagelife.blogspot.com) At least, I think that's her URL. If you end up going to someone else's blog, at least I've given you a way to pass the time. YOU'RE WELCOME.
