Luckily 22 is My Lucky Number

October 20th, 2008 at 9:16 am.

Yes, today is indeed my 22nd birthday. Here are a list of things that make me happy about  my birthday:

  • 4 Birthday Voicemails (Thanks dad, Sarah Mac, Jonah, and Uncle David!)
  • 1 Birthday Text
  • 2 Birthday phone calls
  • 25 (and counting) Birthday Facebook wall posts
  • 2 Happy Birthday Twitters
  • One Birthday card (Thanks, Jillian!)
  • One birthday dinner (and cake!) tonight
Things that make me a little sad on my birthday:
  • The 8+ hours spent (and still to be spent) in the darkroom freaking out about my photography assignment
  • The T-door closing in my face as I went to jump on and make record time to class.
  • The fact that my life is still kind of a mess right now. 
Sadly, the one things that is actually a bright spot is that 22 is my lucky number, so I fully expect this year to be excellent. Hopefully, by 23, I’ll actually have some sort of life plan. Hah. 
Saturday, I ended up going out for my b-day with four of the 10 friends I’d invited to celebrate with me. Yeah…that’s where my life is right now. We ended up having a great time, but I couldn’t help but be sad about who was missing. I really just want to move past all this, because I have so much to worry about right now, my social life just can’t be one of them. I have to have SOMETHING that is going well, that is a constant source of things being alright, and right now I’m kind of teetering on the edge of a nervous breakdown because I feel like I have nothing constant that is good, and that’s pretty scary. 
BUT today is a day to celebrate my birth and to feel good and happy or at least to try. I still have a whole life ahead of me, and I can’t wait to see what happens.
