No longer a teenager!

I am officially no longer a teenager... yay!  I celebrated my birthday a little differently this year.  I'm at school in London so I wasn't with the usual suspects.  I had two midterms and a paper due the next day so I spent most of my birthday studying.  Jake tried to make me french toast that morning but I ended up having to take over.  It's the thought that counts I guess.  I bought cupcakes from the grocery store down the street but they only had enough of one kind, Halloween decorated.  'Tis the season.  Jake was also going to make me porcupine meatballs but we decided last minute to try an Italian restaurant since we never go out to eat.  We had fried risotto balls to start then I had carbonara as my main dish.  It was good food but the service was so slow.  Welcome to Europe I suppose...  We celebrated with the roommates back at the flat by having cupcakes while they sang to me.

Thank you for all of the emails, blog comments, facebook posts and everything else.  It made my birthday really sink in when I was able to hear from family.  Miss and love you all!
