My 21st Birthday

Well, thank god for compassion because he promises that he understands and that it's different... and that he has opened his eyes and grown up and let go... And he loves me as much as I love him!!!

Yesterday was my birthday and it started off crappy because at midnight I wanted to go to XandO for smores and they were closed. Then he fell asleep while I was stuck doing "chromatic" homework and I had really wanted to be warm and cozy and talk. Then I had to wake up early to do an unspeakable amount of work-- the Tolstoy paper, the Vermeer paper and more Chromatic. But things looked up because he gave me the most beautiful snow globe that plays "Winter Wonderland" and sparkles with snow and opalescent glitter. Inside is Old Man Winter and a bluebird and all around the fringes is a forest. He also gave me a necklace-- to make me feel like "a princess" all day long. It is the most beautiful ever-- sapphire and diamonds-- and I never imagined such a gift from anyone!

Then the day was mired with work, but we did go to XandO and at 8:00 PM we met friends at Henry's for dinner and drinks. After that, we went to SoHa and they didn't even bother to card this time! I got pretty drunk, but it was all fun.

Anyway, today it's back to work. Finals are absolute hell this year, but it will all be over a week from today. (That's kind of scary, considering I have to write a 20 page paper, a 10 page paper, take three exams which i am TOTALLY unprepared for in that time-- plus 10 pages in short papers for Blake).

Anyway, I am so in love in love in love that I don't care. I'm starting my diet again tomorrow... All right, must go to class soon...
