Happy 15th Birthday to me! ;^)
It’s been a fun day, but I also don’t want
to make a big deal of it; since this birthday is hardly a big ideal in the
grand scheme of things – not even for my own life. Getting my driver’s license is a first step
toward more travel independence, but to be honest; the most fun I had with that
was when I got back to school and managed to temporarily convince a few friends
that I’d actually failed the test and would need to take a re-write.
Maybe I should consider a career in acting
after all!
It is getting late; so let’s move this
update along. Mom, Dad, Michael, and the
twins did a birthday breakfast with me after Tai Chi; and I opened my gifts
from them then. School was fairly
entertaining, and included a birthday lunch because I didn’t want to have a big
friends’ party when our Mondays are already busy enough with school, work, and
now the weekly band committee meetings.
Mom and Dad did have a birthday dinner for me, but Michael, Rebecca,
Lucas, Rowen, and Tim were the only friends invited – along with Miranda,
Jacob, and my hometown aunts, uncles, and cousins. That was a blast of fun too, but we needed to
have the dinner wrapped up by the time that some of us needed to be at that
marching band meeting. The start of the
meeting was delayed an hour so that I could still have enough time to open
gifts and have cake and ice cream; but then that also meant getting done the
meeting later too. That put the rest of
my evening work and study schedule behind; which is why I really am going to
need to wrap this up soon and get some rest.
Michael came home with me from the meeting;
we did our homework; and then Mom did a Magi lesson with us before he went home
for the night. I got to work shortly
after that – and after getting ready for bed; and I’ve been working on my
computer since then. There was a lot of family
business work to deal with; I did my archive reading assignment too; and
skipped the language studies. Michael
and I also missed out on having a music practice to get ready for our band and
praise team practices tomorrow; so we’ll need to find some time for that later
this week – especially so that we can get ready for the Valentine’s Day party
we’ll be playing at with the band for the seniors on Friday afternoon.
I don’t really even want to think about
everything we have going on this weekend right now, so I won’t; and just call
it a night now.
Until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
