So this is the day, that comes once a year for every living thing in the world. It's a birthday! Yay! So today is my birthday and I have to tell you, it was amazing.
The days that led up to today were kinda distracting. I mean, I kept forgetting that my birthday was getting closer, and honestly I wasn't even that excited. I mean, it just felt like another day. But as the day got closer and closer I started to get a bit nervous, I mean what if today wasn't what I expected it to be. What if it was just like another day?
Well my attitude immediately changed when my cousin and mommy surprised me with a cake at exactly 12:00 am. It was perfect. They sang me happy birthday and fed me cake (as per Indian tradition) and of course my cousin was a bro and smeared some onto my face. :D
That was just the beginning of my wonderful day. After getting some sleep I woke up for my first class and met with some friends. I got tons of birthday hugs and my phone was blowing up with my facebook newsfeeds from friends wishing me happy birthday, which was amazing. I realized that even though people just simply said "happy birthday" there were a lot of people who said more, like funny stories or who showered me with wonderful blessings. I also got plenty of text messages and tons of phone calls from family all over the place. it was once again, amazing.
Today I got amazing presents, I got an ipad from my cousin which was a TOTAL surprise because that morning he got me a Rutgers key chain and I was so excited until I came home to a package. Then I got the Les Mis DVD from a bestie with a heartwarming message inside. almost cried. no joke. I also got a cute flannel shirt from another awesome friend, which was something i've wanted to get for a while with an inspiring card. They are wonderful gifts, so THANK YOU!
Though these were amazing presents I have to say the best part of my day was just to see and know how blessed I am to have such AMAZING, WONDERFUL, BEAUTIFUL friends and family who are more than I could ever ask for. God is sooooo good to me. The frienships that I formed in college and ones that I have kept from highschool are tremendous blessings. I love you all so very much, I don't know what I would do without you all. <3
Thank you for making this birthday one that I will never forget. Can't help but smile, all day erryday. :D
