16th Birthday Picspam

Greetings!
Yesterday was my 16th birthday, and even though (As I mentioned in my last post) my friend is avoiding me, my family and I had a splendid little party over two days.

Unfortunately for me on both days I had a nasty case of swollen glands in the neck, so I couldn't talk much, had to be enshrouded with a giant scarf, and worst of all, I couldn't taste much and it hurt to eat.

(A sort of birthday present?! *Grrrrrrrr*)

Nevertheless, I still pursued my birthday plans, and on the day it was lovely, cold and rainy. (No sunlight, rain is quite lovely weather for me) , and mom and I went out and got a lovely marble mud cake (My first actual bought cake, before my sister or myself would make cakes)

Here it is :)

(I did however try to make a chocolate cake and it went well until our hell of an oven burnt it.)

Considering I wasn't at all feeling well, most of the day was spent just sitting around watching Doctor Who and Young Dracula <--A new TV series I've become interested in...

In the evening we ate fish and chips/pizza for dinner, then I opened my gifts:

A glass cup with a candle and flowers (My favorite present)

Nutritional chocolatish bars. :)

Shampoo, for my birthday? Lol

Mass pile of presents and paper.

Energy drinks? God knows I don't need that XD

My Medieval folklore book finally arrived in the mail!

Mom and I with the cake. :)

I found silver candles and was veeerrry pleased! :D

Derp Face

After that we lit sparklers and popped party poppers, then watched 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape?' (<--A cute movie, plus young Johnny Depp + Orange hair = WIN) and X-Men. :)

The next day we went to see my Grandma, she was really happy (More happy than I've ever seen her) She kept giving me hugs and kept singing 'Sweet Sixteen' with the emphasis of 'Never Been Kissed' <---I have to admit that's true...

Then I lit a couple of candles on the pieces of cake that we brought, and Nanna and my parents took great happiness on singing happy birthday a couple of times.

After that it was pretty much over, but even though I didn't have any friends over, it was still special for me. :)

Also, on facebook one of my ex-friends sent me a birthday card and we chatted a bit...Honestly, it was nice hearing from her again, she was the friend I really missed most.

Oh, and the lovely Amy (Stripy Tights and Dark Delights) also wished me happy birthday, made me feel really special. :D

That about sums stuff up.

Farewell!
