Birthday!

Before I get to my own, happy (belated) birthdays to greensilver and lierduoma! Hope you both had wonderful days, my fellow October birthdays.

So I had my 19th birthday today. It was my first birthday away from my parents in California. It was awesome! Thank you to everyove who wished me a happy birthday, it is much appreciated. I am now the proud owner of a video iPod! I love it, so shiny and new and I can now play a ton of music, vids and tv episodes. Pure heaven, right there. Just imagine, being able to play whatever vid I want, wherever I am. Yay! I really am having a great day, everyone has been wonderful to me, I received mail from relatives and I had a great meal and cake and ice cream. Plus a book I was waiting for came for me at the library so I had fun reading that during work. And now I can just relax and read my Flist and watch my favorites vids and TV episodes. I've been really busy the last few weeks and its nice to take a break from that.

I was thinking about it on the way back from Disneyland on Saturday (fun!), 19 is not a big birthday or anything, just one step closer to 20 and 21. But for me, it marks the first year that I've truly found my independence. I'm quite addicted to it now, I love doing things on my own, getting my own money and buying whatever I want and I greatly look forward to the day when I can live completely on my own. I feel a lot more mature now, I'm still learning and growing of course and look to continue that in the coming year, but I think I've come a long way since last year. I'm so happy that I made my dream come true and now I'm right where I want to be with a way to become who I want to be.

Also? Fans are the best because both sockkpuppett and killabeez made amazing Supernatural vids! Talk about awesome birthday surprises. Download them here: Lum's vid and Killa's vid. Not to mention sisabet joining the ranks of Supernatural fans/vidders makes me even more happy.

It's been a great day :D

Belated Happy Birthday. At 19, I think I still wanted to celebrate, these days not so much:) I am thinking about a video ipod as a "Merry Christmas to me." How many gigs are the video ipods? I have a regular Ipod I've not used much because I am always forgetting to charge it, but the inducement of being able to watch/listen to television shows might keep me on my toes. At the moment, my son has run off with my ipod, because he went through his third a couple of months ago. As far as music, I don't mind using a Sports walkman with the CD programmed as an MP3, so you can get 175 songs or so on one disk. Jeff has the audio tracks of several Broadway shows now, sometimes I listen to them in the car. Gee, maybe one day I too will get to Broadway again, in the meantime, I'm learning the songs. I highly recommend the Wedding singer cast recording.

Thanks :) It is fun to celebrate them when you're younger although 19 is not as big as a year as most. I would definitely recommend a video ipod, I loove mine and its great to be able to play thousands of songs as well as all the vids and television shows and movies I want. I don't think I have much excuse at boredom now ;) Broadway is always good and thanks for the rec :)
