Go shorty it's your birthday

'tis the seasons for birthdays... steph, elisa, JESUS, clare, me.. and the list goes on haha..
today i am 21 and like every other year, nothing feels different. 21 is somewhat of a landmark but it doesn't feel all that significant yet. It's a "now what?" kind of moment. I have concluded that I am simply a child stuck in an adult-aged child-sized body. My 2oth year was interesting to say the least and no matter how much i hate to admit it, the challenges that God put my way made me grow. So... i guess my 20th year didn't suck as much as i always think it did.

I am thankful that God has added an extra year to my life and I am glad that I have been able to spend so much time in the past week with friends and family. Good times like those easily outweighs the excitement of an iPod nano and AE sweaters.

People have been asking me what I want for Christmas/birthday and I could probably give you a long list of things that I think I need or want at the drop of a hat... let's be honest, I've always been a sucker for commercialism. But asides from all the truly unneeded dvds and clothes, I think what i would like most this year is to be friends with __________ again. That would be my biggest wish. But.. call me cynical, I don't think I should hold my breath for it.
