My 21st Birthday

I've not had time to write for the last couple of weeks what with the lion growling for attention at all times, but now that the deadline has passed and i've had about 12 hours sleep in a row, i feel ready to return to the computer!

My birthday was fab! It was just a really lovely day. i was like a small child, extremely over-excited and giggly. It was great being on a Sunday. This meant i got to go to church and see my whole big family. There's not really anywhere to go for an night of dancing on a Sunday so i had an afternoon barbeque instead at my house. I think this was much better than attempting to have a night out anyway, because i got to spend proper time with my friends rather than having to shout over loud music and deal with the fact that only a few of my friends actually go to night clubs for the same reason as me. forget the drinks, the chat, the socialising, i just love staying on the dancefloor the whole night, and i prefer my music to have a beat and no words. Which is mostly what i had at my party! yay!

Here are some of my higlights:

• Nathan DJing. He's amazing and looks so cool and plays brilliant music and i just wanted to dance all the time so thank you to my friends who finally gave into my pleading and danced with me in my living room!
• The lovely weather! It was hot and sunny and we had the bbq in the back yard and all the doors open.
• Friends being so loving just by making an effort. For example Harriet came all the way from Luton which is a big big journey, and so did my bro Stef, and the first years who had pressing exam revision but still came to spend time with me.
• Harriet! so good to see my lovely friend and catch up.
• Stef! Thanks for coming bro, i know it's always an effort for you to get up off your buttt and do anything ;) We had a right laugh - we made Random Chocolate Fudge Banana Cake by making up the recipe as we went along and it was okay which was a miracle! My mates thought you were a well cool dude and that we are very similar (which makes me a well cool dudette, oh yeah)
• Sitting on the big lawn of the hotel that's just across the road watching some of us play frisbee but avoiding the strenuous activity by having a nice chat whilst pulling up grass (who else always does that when sitting on the grass?!)
• In church, Ife embarassing me by singing Happy Birthday in the loudest voice you'll ever hear except in an opera.
• My housies, who tidied up thwe whole house and rearranged the living room in a really good way and arranged lots of food for the bbq.

Thanks to everyone for coming and giving me a happy happy day!
