Wait, What Do You Mean I'm Really Twenty?

As most of you know, I turned 20 on Friday. While I have always made a big deal about celebrating my birthday, this year I was a little more quiet about it. The fact that I have left my teens behind and am slowly starting to enter the "adult world" is exciting, yet overwhelming at the same time. Just because I'm not into making a huge deal about my birthday does not mean that I did not have fun. Friday night my girlfriends and I went out for Thai food at a yummy restaurant called Thai Ginger, which is about 5 minutes from UP. After dinner, we came back to campus and had cake and played Apples to Apples, which was a lot of fun. Saturday night my friend Trever and I went to Mio Sushi, another excellent restaurant not far from campus. Not only did I not have to wait until I got back to CA to satisfy my sushi craving, but I got to enjoy eating non-Commons and non-Cove food. Also, both places were inexpensive! (a major plus for us college students)

Birthday girl!

I got some nice presents for my birthday, as well as flowers, which are a nice addition to my room. Like everything, all good things must come to an end. I had a few short papers I had to work on this weekend and a TON of reading. Like usual, I expect this week to be reading heavy. On Sunday I am going to the opera for fine arts. I have never been to one, so it should be an interesting experience. Until then.
