Day 2006: Happy birthday to me!

For the big quarter-century, my boyfriend surprised me with a trip to New York City! We are currently on a plane (yes, this early) en route! We plan on seeing my friends, hanging out in Central Park, running in Central Park, doing a little shopping, perhaps catching a play/show, eating and enjoying the atmosphere that is the greatest city on earth.

Now you all understand why I had to be on top of my school game and why I will probably still be studying whilst in the Big Apple. If anything, I will have the glorious New York City skyline to study to. Below are two photos I took of New York ages ago, just because I love this city at-least-two-photos-worth.

Day 1951: Happy birthday sister of mine!

To my darling sister (who doesn't read my blog), thanks for being amazing and not giving a hoot whether you look like a baller, a pimp, asleep or the beautiful person you are. I love you! Happy birthday!

Day 463: Happy belated birthday...

...to me!

It felt a little like Sixteen Candles except I didn't get the boy at the end. You see, my birthday was spent in my MCAT class. For about eight hours. The MCAT-class-kids were super sweet and they sang me Happy Birthday. My family and I went to The Cheesecake Factory after my class and I proceeded to eat an entire pound of food (thank you Cheesecake Factory Nutritional Guide!). It was excellent. People called and texted me throughout the day which was very sweet. Overall, it wasn't a big deal that I didn't do much for my birthday. I don't really think birthdays (mine anyway) are that big of a deal. I think it's like any other day.

Besides, I have bigger things than my birthday to worry about. Let's talk about my moving teeth. Sometimes, they're all loose-y goose-y and I get freaked out because I have crazy dreams about my teeth falling out. Then I think my worst fears are coming true -- toothless at 22! Also, when they're loose-y goose-y, they hurt.

Oh and my MCAT. I'm taking that sucker next week! I'm stoked. I'm workin' hard to get it together. I remember when I was first signing up for a future MCAT date, and I thought, I want it to be before my birthday so I can have a nice birthday but, to be honest, I don't really think anything big would have happened otherwise. It's kind of nice to have a purpose.

Like I said, just chugging along.

(P.S. I will accept belated birthday posts here and won't judge you if you didn't e-mail/text/call me ;P)
