Birthday

Another weekend post, but I guess this time its something special. I had my 21st birthday party this weekend. It was pretty special because well.. it was my 21st. The night was really enjoyable, and I probably didn't get as drunk as I had planned, but I think thats kind of a good thing, bceause nobody else was really getting drunk, and its not good to be drunk at your own 21st anyway.

Its probably a bit arrogant to say this, but it felt good having a bunch of people who are all there to celebrate something about you. Even though a lot of people probably only went for the free food and the free drink, I'm just going to pretend they didn't :). Nah, its just nice to know that people think you're special enough to go out of their way to get you a pressie and hang out with you for the evening, then stand around for ages trying to decide what to do next, and then realise that what got decided isn't rreally something they want to do anyway. Oh well.. I guess kareoke isn't for everyone.

Presents were nice however. I got some shirts and a tie and a wireless mouse and keyboard, so now I can be really lazy. There was also a webcam, so those of you who feel like having a chat, just you know... message me. But I'm not into all that kinky stuff okay?

People from work got me a pen and a business card holder... which is kinda optimistic.. but we'll see how it goes. Maybe if they have enough confidence in me, it'll be all good and things wil turn out okay.

There was also some cologne. Obligatory, but always makes you wonder about what the giver things you smell like. Its okay though... I think... maybe it was just that time I was playing tennis with them... and sweating... yes... that must've been it.

Anyway, after that we went to kareoke. Most didn't go, but that was kind of expected anyway. Oh well, thanks people for coming anyway, even if you had to be somewhere else earlier and stuff.

P.S. People who actually know me can ask for pics and video if they like.
