So today I'm 19. I don't really like the number 19; 18 has always been my favourite number since I was little and I quite enjoyed being that age. 19 doesn't have any new perks. And it's an odd number. But I'm not that crazy about 20 either. If I could just skip to 24 that'd be cool. I've got a strange relationship with numbers. Maybe I can only be happy when I'm the age of numbers that I like. Maybe that's the stupidest theory I've ever come up with. My last year of teenagehood. Not a big fan of this whole growing old malarkey. I'm almost half way to forty.. now that really does scare me.
The first birthday message, well messages if you count twitter and facebook, first for both, were my favourite. Of course. And last night, with ten conversations going on at once, well it was the happiest I've been in ages. Remember when we used to talk on gb, facebook and msn all at once? I got all the Postsecret books for my birthday, it reminded me of sitting in Waterstones flicking through them with you, and on the beach. I still need to put my own secret in a book. Back then it felt like I didn't have any secrets worthy enough. Now I feel like I've got hundreds. I might even send one to Frank. But anyway, thank you for starting my birthday off in the most perfect way. When I blew out the candles, well, I can't tell you what I wished for, or it won't come true... but let me just quote the following lyric.
If somebody's going to make it, that somebody ought to be you.
Left arrow three.
Happy Birthday Miss.
ReplyDelete19! I love that number, but then I'm partial to odd numbers (and odd people some might say).
Numbers are just that, and age is relative. From where I stand you are very young and have tons of time to do whatever makes you happy. We all need to let ourselves BE happy.
All by best-est wishes to you.
Thank you :) I'm definitely more partial to even numbers.. even the tv volume has to be on an even number!! Thank you for your kind wishes, for following and for being lovely!
