My Birthday Extravaganza!

My body is finally Twenty-one! 

I feel like I've been waiting my entire life for this moment! Sounds a bit silly, wanting so desperately to finally... party! Even as a kid, I always wanted to grow up and do adult things, so many adults would say, "Enjoy your youth! Being an adult isn't all it's cracked up to be!" and to that, I don't believe one bit! Being an adult is much too fun, having my own things is amazing, nobody tells me what to do, and now that I can drink, I can party however I want!

The celebrating started on Thurseday! My roommate made me a homemade cake! I had asked for a chocolate cake with strawberry icing, and she even made the icing from scratch! 

It was far too cute, and exactly what I wanted! I saw a picture online of someone with a cake with a fruit caterpillar on it and realized how much I needed it! I love bugs a lot, mostly beatles, but this was too cute to pass up! I feel like the star sprinkles brought it together so nicely too! I cant help but feel this entire thing was a masterpiece~ ଘ(੭˃ᴗ˂)੭

At night, we were supposed to drink and watch funny videos like how we did when we first moved in together. I wrote a bullitin about it, but... Well, it didn't go how it was supposed to! She ended up leaving me in favor of hanging out with her girlfriend, but I'm not very mad about it anymore. I've decided to not worry myself about such silly things! I enjoyed the rest of my days anyways!

On Friday, the day after, it was the day I spent with my best friend! We planned for him to pick me up, take me to this local anime shop and then to the mall, then go back to my house to drink and watch movies! He ended up buying me a My Melody plush, which is what I had my eyes set on for ever since I laid my eyes on her two weeks prior. 

I may not look it based on my profile, but I tend to dress in black and red more than anything. As soon as I laid my eyes on her, she looked like a little version of me! I knew I needed her! And now I do!!!! I love her more than anything... She's just like her father (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)

After that, we went to the mall! The only bad thing about my friend is he isn't the biggest fan of shopping, specifically clothes shopping. I, on the other hand, love clothes shopping. Because it's getting hotter where I live, I wanted to buy some more shorts. I couldn't remember the last time I bought myself some shorts, let alone a pair that fit my style now. As I shopped, though, I could tell my friend was getting bored, when I tried on different ones, he compared me to a girlfriend! I got annoyed and made him leave as I finished shopping, I always forget how annoying he can get at times, but I still enjoyed my time regardless!

Once we hit my place, we told my roommate about our plan for dinner, she was supposed to join us for drinks and movie time. We went to taco bell... But I paid for everyone. I don't mind, though, because my roommate paid for all our drinks, and we ended up binge watching the Scott Pilgram anime. My roommate never joined us, but I didn't care much, I was too busy laughing and screaming at the tv with my friend to notice. After we finished the show, we watched some YouTube, then when he finally left my place, I spent some drunken time on my own! I don't remember much, but I do know that my entire body hurt the morning after. All I can assume happened was I put on some headphones and jumped around until I passed out (╯▽╰ )

When I woke up Saturday, I noticed that my friend had sent me a game on steam! A game I had been wanting for a few days, The Hundred Line: Defense Academy. Fun fact, I was very deep into Danganronpa when I was a kid, especially when it got big in 2019. Lately, I had been really wanting to replay it, and when I found out The Hundred Line came out, I played the demo and became obsessed. It's honestly been all I've done for the past few days! Money well spent on my friend's part... I was supposed to drive to my mother's house that morning, but I didn't end up leaving the house until well past 2pm. I blame the game... Time flies by whenever I play it! It's addicting!!

When I finally got there, my mom and sister started getting ready. My sister had found this local bar that was playing live music, specifically an Emo cover band! It was right up my ally, and admission was crazy cheap! It was amazing! We pregamed beforehand, my mother mixed some drinks, and we downed them before even going to the car. I'm very much a lightweight, so I was already feeling good off of those two drinks alone. Once we got there, we realized we were crazy early. Not that that was a bad thing, it just took forever for the band to finally perform! My sister bought me a shot, and... I won't lie, I was out of it after that. My sister kept bringing over drinks, and I kept drinking them. I talked to a lot of people, a younger mother of two kids who called me her brother, two older women who were really into dnd, and this group of four people who were my age. 

I started talking to this one girl, and she offered to take me to go get water. I have this rule while drunk, where if a lady asks you to do something at a party, you simply do it. No questions asked. I took my first Jello shot that night because one of the older ladies I had met that night offered me one. I knew I would hate it, I hate Jello, but when offered by a lady I can't say no. Anyways, I remember I started talking to her because she had the same earrings as my sister, which I thought was cool. She told me that she had a book where she has every person she met write their name and number down, and I remember locking in to write my name and number as legible as possible in that book. In all honesty, she reminded me of those Manic Pixie Dream Girls you see in those shitty movies. She made music, sang me a few of her songs, read me some poetry, all the like. I don't know why I stayed and talked to her for so long. She had a fixation on bucket lists too, when I told her I didn't have one she was surprised and let me read hers. I don't remember anything on it, but I suppose it doesn't matter much ଘ(*. .)

She introduced me to her friends, and they were the group of four I mentioned earlier! I told them lots of things I don't remember, but the one thing I do remember is telling them it wasn't actually my birthday that night, my birthday wasn't until 12am! May 11th! Funnily enough, they sang me happy birthday as soon as it turned midnight and invited me to waffle house! Who would've thought I got to join them in such and endeavor! I don't remember much more, aside from telling them to remind me to take a picture of my food for my blog, and how the girl I talked about before laid her head on my shoulder.

Once we got to waffle house I remember being taken aback by the prices!! They up the prices of the food the closer to the coast you are! Isn't that horrible? But aside from that, I also found out that two of the four people in the friend group were moving away across the country for collage. Even more horrible! I couldn't believe they allowed that drunken, stumbling angel to join them in such a private celebration! I apologized, but they kept saying how I was, "Elevating the experience" and "Being the new beginning" Or something cheesy like that. I didn't say anything, but their cheesiness almost made me want to barf, I felt like I was really being forced into a coming-of-age movie. They were all so nice, though, so I didn't mind and just enjoyed my food.

[Such a bad picture, don't mind it too much, okay?]

After that, they took me to this strange bar? It was some kind of herb bar? I don't remember what it was, or what it was called, but I remember they all took turns trying to explain to me what it was, and in the end, I just nodded my head and pretended to get it. I remember loving the decor on the walls, I even took some shitty pictures of the walls for this post too (╯▽╰ )

I was also told people play live music there from time to time. In all honesty, I'm not too sure why they took me to this place, nobody really ordered anything, and all we did was chat about our future plans.

The girl ended up leaving to go to the bathroom for most of it, and when she came back, she told me to check my phone. I had found a message from her to go back to her place. Apparently, I made a face when I read the message, but I didn't realize. I ended up accepting her offer and went back to her place.

You can kind of assume what happened after that! It was lots of fun to be with another body and be so physical with one another! She was a very beautiful girl, and was very... nervous? She told me it was her first time doing something like that with a stranger, but I can only hope it made her feel better when I told her it was the same for me too. She was also worried I was still drunk, which I wasn't. I had lots to eat, and she made me drink so much water at the show that I was pissing clear. I can only hope I was a good experience for her too.

Before we were done, I remember saying something along the lines of, "Maybe next time..." To which she responded by tapping the tip of my nose and saying, "There probably won't be a next time," I laughed at that, and told her she was right. When we were done, it was past 5am, probably the first time I looked at the time that night. She gave me a drive home in her old car, the driver's door had to be opened from the inside, and her radio didn't work. As she fiddled with her bluetooth speaker, connecting it to her phone, I asked if she had any AC in her car. She said no, and that I had to roll down the window. She had crank windows, and I made a mental note to remember to roll back up the window once she dropped me off. As she drove, she talked about her partner, how she was in an open relationship, a lot of things I didn't really care too much about. I told her how beautiful it was, how they were able to do something like that and have it not be a big issue. If I had a relationship, I would die if they had done anything with another person. They have good communication and all of that, as far as I know. 

Anyways, she mentioned how if I ever wanted to hang out with her, or simply talk to her, we had each other's numbers, so I could just reach out. I remember patting my thighs as the night breeze hit my face and I told her that I wouldn't be contacting her again. I didn't want to, and the way she made it sound, she didn't expect me to. She sounded surprised about it, saying that, "Thats fine, I have plenty of other people to talk to,' and the like. I didn't care too much and told her that if I did get to know her, I probably would regret what we did. She responded by saying, "I don't think I'm a bad person..." I told her it wasn't that she was a bad person, I just didn't want to regret what we did. Once we arrived at my destination, I rolled up my window, told her goodbye forever, and left. My sister told me I was an asshole; I didn't tell her how we did other things at her house, just that she gave me a ride home, and she said that I was an asshole because she was "totally into me." My mom just laughed when I told her, she said she would've lied and then blocked her number after she got out of the car. 

I didn't block her number, but I won't be contacting her... I don't want to! 

The actual day of my birthday, My mom finally let me see my cake... A Chocolate cake with strawberry icing. I had a craving this year, and it just so happened to be Chocolate cake with strawberry icing. 

It was just as yummy as it looked... I love sweets! 

Sunday, the day of my birthday, I did.... Absolutely nothing. My mom grilled out, so I ate, then took a nap, then ate again, then took another nap, then ate once more and drove home. 

Once I got back in town, I went to my gas station and bought some mikes hard and a pack of cigarettes. The cashier told me happy birthday and told me about her daughter couldn't wait to go to the gas station first thing in the morning of her 21st birthday to do the same thing I did just then ♪(´▽｀)

My birthday was, dare I say, a success~ I had so much fun at the show that all the random bad things that happened seemed like nothing! 

The day after, I was actually planning on just resting and doing nothing, but my best friend called me up and we ended up hanging out again! We smoked a cigarette together, then drank the two mikes hard I bought while making fun of This really shitty movie together, I think it was called The Trap or something like that, the director is notorious for having shitty movies with a huge budget, and his daughter was one of the stars of the movie. Who knows, all I know was we had too much fun watching it.

My life is good, and I feel it only gets better from here! 

I love you all, Byebye now! Have a blessed week! ⁽⁽ଘ( ˊᵕˋ )ଓ⁾⁾
