It is really true, the older you get, the more ” unspecial” you feel on your birthday. Doesnt matter one bit to me, because I made it as special as possible!

• I didnt have to work
• I was in my pyjamas drinking tea and playing silly games all morning
• We went out for lunch to an amazing Asian All You Can Eat
• I treated myself to an Uni-free afternoon
• There was cake, lots of cake
• A good book and Game Of Thrones
• Good skin
• Staying up late

Of course, there were also the messages on social media and such. It was a good day, though I try to make every single day special. There were people missing , but they are always missing. On all occasions and on every holiday.

I have come so far in the last few years and sometimes it seems I dont grow at all. I am glad I am getting older in the sense, that I am learning that so many things that were once so important to me, are really not important. Though I will be lacking my parents for the rest of my life, I am better in managing our lives. Better than I was 5 years ago. I am less depressed and I am learning to let “things” go.

I havent baked my birthday cake yet, but I definitely will this weekend. So we bought some for the occasion and it was so good!

Also, time passes rediculously fast! Off into another year, yay me!
