So yesterday was my birthday. I hit the big two-zero. I went for breakfast with Fred - full English at Phil's Diner. Great place. Check it out. Then Fred and I went shopping. That was until about 4pm. We ran into some others in town. They tried to organise a surprise but failed because I'm a genius.
Here is a picture of all the gifts I received as well as what I bought for myself. The brown bag in the centre is something I picked up for myself. It cost me about £14. Above that is 11.22.63 by Stephen King. I've only read 5-6 chapters in but it's fantastic. It's looking to be a really good read. Also the brown book that is touching the top right of the brown bag is a travel journal. I thought it was relevant.
The book next to Stephen King is a book called 'Sofies verden' or 'Sophie's World'. It's a popular book that takes you through some basics in Philosophy. I've never read it but the fact that it's in Norwegian makes it a bit more difficult. However, hopefully that'll help me learn. Thanks to Fred for that one (as well as the fake lottery ticket... You'll need to do better than that to fool me).
Next to 'Sophies verden' there's a big black book which was made for me. I have Jasmine to thank for that.
Bottom right, we have a wash bag from my brother's lot. Top left is chocolate from Rob. To the far left we have two cards which were made. The Nintendo themed one is from my mother. The other is from Hannah. Cheers everyone. Everyone else who got me something, got me cash. Good shout.
So yeah, I'm 20. I've come far from being a crazy-haired party maniac. I'm now a slightly-more-tamed-haired party maniac. My desire to drink and make a prat of myself hasn't faded from the transition from 19 to 20. Unfortunately for some and fortunately for others, I'll still act like a teenager. Cue pictures.
