~i really want to thank my mother, because without her, my birthday yesterday would have really sucked to it's complete and full potential. there are exceptions though!! i don't want to make any grand sweeping statements that EVERYONE was terrible about it, cause that isn't true. but she got me cards, a cake, and presents, and even instituted the whole "dinner party" for the four of us. whereas, half my friends didn't even remember/or even know, making it my fault because "i never told anybody". this bothered me because i remember all of their birthdays and try to get them a little present or something, and they can't even remember mine. a simple card at the very very least would have really made my day...but my fault for holding any expectations of them.

so turning 16 is really not as big of a deal as i imagined it to be. its just another day..


~Thoughts of the (not so) random persuasion

-rooney better be awesome, i want to remember this birthday as a good one, not a sad one
-i finally understand the whole "its my party and i'll cry if i want to' thing..not that i condone it o_o
-i really shouldn't hold any expectations. that way im either not let down, or pleasantly surprised. speaking of which, a girl who i don't really care for (i have my reasons...) told me happy birthday yesterday and i WAS actually pleasantly surprised that she did so... only to find that in our next class she had to make it known that she was the very first to tell me 'happy birthday'. i shoulda known..she is one who likes attention and the sound of her own voice.
-homecoming should be fun.
-i hope i never forget someone's birthday..this forgotten feeling is pretty crappy.
