It’s My Birthday

It’s my birthday! Yay!

September is the best month of the year…besides December

September 16 is the best day of the year… besides December 25

But I’m not biased or anything.

Anyways, I am 21 today. 21 is supposed to be a right of passage or something like that. Go out and get super trashed at all the bars and wake up the next morning unsure of what happened with the biggest headache of your life. Well, that’s what everyone tells me I am supposed to do. I don’t feel any different…yet.

I can legally buy alcohol. I am not much of a drinker anyways, but sometimes I don’t allow myself to eat/drink/order things just because I don’t want to “drink my calories.” Just because you are “supposed” to go get trashed on your 21st birthday doesn’t mean you HAVE to. Do whatever makes you feel good, but make sure what you are doing is what you intuitively think is right. Not what your head tells you is right. If I want to order a drink tonight, I will.

Birthdays only come once a year. You only turn 21 once in a lifetime. Allow yourself to splurge and eat/drink something that you don’t on a daily basis.

Life is short. Don’t waste time worrying about miniscule things. There are bigger problems in the world.

Happy drinking!

    Happy Birthday!!! I say do what makes you happy and don’t worry if you have a “typical” 21st birthday. I’m sure you can make up for any shenanigans you feel like you missed out on later this week if you decide you really should have gotten crazy!
