Birthday Edition: Feeling 22

Today has been a fabulous birthday! I've been pretty sick for the last few days, but I took NyQuil last night, and I was finally able to sleep (yay 10 hours!) so I feel, although not 100%, at least more rested.

Marisa and Rachel made me a pancake and fruit smoothie breakfast, which was a surprise, and required me to be barricaded into my room... They were very cute and attached balloons to my chair and had everything ready when I walked down. It was particularly special because Marisa doesn't generally grace us with her presence so early in the morning.





After lunch, Rachel and I walked downtown to get a beverage from Starbucks (free birthday drink!); it was nice to get out for a little walk before my afternoon class.

I got some birthday cards in the mail, and this one told me to eat whatever I wanted for my birthday, so I ate the card.



When my post-tonal music theory class found out it is my birthday, they decided they needed to sing to me. But what kind of post-tonal students would they be if they sang the traditional version? So they wrote it out on the board, then inverted the melody. It was probably the most interesting and thoughtful birthday song I've ever been sung!



For dinner tonight we had burgers with sauteed mushrooms and onions, and Swiss cheese on ciabatta buns, with Parmesan and parsley oven fries. 


The evening was completed with a delicious blΓΈtkake, made by yours truly, and enjoyed with my housemates!  




Thank you to everyone who has wished me a happy birthday! I've had a great day, and I appreciate everyone who has helped make it special!
