Today is my birthday. Im 14 and i feel 40. Its just all so weird to me that ive lived and breathed and been a part of the human race for 1 2/5 of a decade. CRAZY!!! Anywho, it snowed today on my birthday and my math teacher Sandy let us go out and run around in it for like 10 minutes but it was really wet and cold so we just kinda went inside after like 2 minutes. And another thing that happened today was that pretty much all of my friends did something for me. Except for Riley. Well i didn't really expect anything from her because we're not really besties or anything but i dont know. I just found it kinda weird. Kelsey was the most generous today though. She made me a GIANT chocolate chip pancake, (not nessecarily to be eaten but it has sentimental value. but thats another story for another day...) she made me a batch of red velvet cupcakes, and chocolate chip cookies (which were extra crispy (just the way i like them!!)) and she made me a GIANT poster as a card. Mia made me a cute little sign for my locker along with Regina, Hailey and Carly. Hailey made me brownies, and Carly made me cookies. Taylor made me brownies and MaryKate did too. So there was some serious food overload (if there is such thing!) but i just felt really special today. Not just because it was my birthday, and the fact that nothing can go wrong on birthdays but just seeing how everyone gave me something or made something for me and ran up to me in the hallway and gave me big bear hugs, and even having the people who i dont hang out with ever or even make small talk to say happy birthday was just so heartwarming. I dont think anyone exactly knew how much my thank you's meant.
If you were to ask me if i thought i was popular, i would say no. If you were to ask me if i thought everyone knew me enough to say hi to me, i would say ehh, maybe. If you were to ask me if i thought people from other classes whom im not friends with at all would tell me happy birthday i would say never. I get by with people at school. I have my super close friends, i have my other close friends, i have aquaintances friends and i have people who are just there. I feel like i just blend in. Im not really one to go out and make friends randomly. I go to a small school. The people who i went to kindergarten with are the ones that are still with me in my classes and are the ones who are going to be standning next to me on the graduation podium. I GET BY. Im a social person (at least i like to think so) and i dont mind being nice to people. Its just the fact that i felt so popular today and i felt like a movie star. I felt like nothing could stop me. And nothing did. I got a 100 on my math test. I got the highest grade in my entire lit class on my lit quiz. I was handing out baked goods like freaking Willy Wonka! I just felt so bright and happy and special and this is one birthday that i wont forget.
Ever.
