Yesterday was my birthday.

Nineteen is a strange age... it's kind of a reject-age like, 14 and 20. Sure, you're another year older and into the rite of passage even deeper, but they're more of a resting place than a graduation.

I had a pretty good birthday, though. Class went from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, so that kind of sucked, but I liked the class and I got a lot done which made up for it. Early on, I found like, $80 on the ground. I was like, wizard. I am God. There was also free food for Valentine's Day... though it was a day late... which put it on my birthday. Millions of cupcakes later, I had take home boxes full enough to be an actual cake and a balloon. I bought some more food, as if I hadn't eaten enough already, with some of the money I found and I'm going to use more of it to buy more food today.

I never noticed until recently how often I eat. It's kind of repulsive... at least, it is to me. I never ate this much and now I'm afraid that I might start gaining weight... which would be tragic. So, I'm going to definitely try to eat far less. Either that or I could exercise more... ew. I'll just eat less. Yeah.

Luckily, Nicky and I are getting past that whole clingy stage of our relationship where we have to be in constant contact and always together. It's not that I try to be apart from him for long periods of time, but it just works out that way some days. Nothing's really changed though, he just seems a little more excited to seem me lately when he gets the chance and I know that I anticipate seeing him more now.

We both go our separate ways often enough now and we have our own friends and then a group of mutual friends who we interact with. I remember when it was just the two of us every day. That was a lot of fun and it got us really used to each other and aware of each other enough that we rarely argue for real anymore. I mean, we never really argued and fought anyway, but it's just nice that we still don't have that. I do get annoyed with him and I'm sure he gets annoyed with me, but we know how to deal with it without everything exploding up. Sometimes I miss seeing him all the time though. That comes with the territory of being a human though... always wanting what you don't have.

Oh well, this whole post probably makes no sense, but that's alright for now.
