My 20th Birthday

On the 28th I celebrated my 20th Birthday. It was much better than I expected it to be.
One of my friends came up to visit, my cousin ended up bailing on me. I have some really great cousins....
So besides that we dragged ourselves out of bed early to go to Cora's. My friend got the fruit plate, which I don't remember it's name specifically. I got the Strawberry Satisfaction, and it was the biggest thing I have ever seen, and needless to say I never finished it. I left a tip, sadly mostly in pennies because that is all I have for change, but it was very amusing.
We stopped by at a tattoo shop that I know is really good because everyone talks about. I will be getting my first tattoo August 2nd so stay tuned for that. :)
Unfortunately I did have to work on my birthday but it could have been a lot worse, considering I didn't work until 3. My friend also brought me strawberry shortcake. <3 I managed to get home early because the boss let me go.
We went to a really nice pub/restaurant with amazing food, and drinks. It was an absolute blast. I have never had so much fun for my birthday. Except for maybe that street dance when I turned 18.
My friend helped me finish my strawberry kitchen set, I already owned the teapot, and I now have the sugar bowl, cream jug, and salt, and pepper shakers. She also got me a cute little gold heart necklace. Another friend who came along for the restaurant got me a giant Totoro.
I have been mostly working, but my hours have been cut, but not as bad as when I worked at McDonald's. I managed to get some time off in the next two weeks to go home, and visit which I am rather excited about.

So I Will Keep Smiling Regardless of the Pain

I've had two days off, and what did I do with them? The same thing when I went home, nothing. :D Yes I am still going on about that.
Well actually I have all my things up here so I can do things I suppose, but it is still pretty boring when you have no friends.
So I am back into watching anime again, oh well, it's kind of a hobby, and it kills time, plus it is a huge inspiration for me as well. I started watching Puella Magia Madoka Magica, it's such a dark twist on a magical girl story. Love it! ♥ I also finished it because all the episodes have been released. I love the characters Mami Tomoe, and Madoka Kaname.
My left knee bothered me for most of the day Thursday for some reason. I haven't done anything major to it, just the normal hit it off stuff occasionally by accident. Not going to worry about it.
I am silently proving that my friends back home really don't care about me, no one talks to me, I always start conversations on msn, very few people send me texts. It is actually really depressing because I feel so alone up here, and it has been like this since I moved, and before then.
I just have to smile, and push along like nothing is wrong.
