Birthday Presents

Okay, so for my birthday I received the following:
From my friend in 8th period: A really good journal(it's name brand)
From my friend in 8th period that the other one is always fighting with: The first two volumes of Vampire Knight(yay! Fave manga!)
From my parents: A Kimono girl car from Cars 2, a $25 Barnes and Nobles gift card(in exchange for the $25 one my idiot dad sent me), a Nook(the personal touch screen one. It was a birthday/Christmas present), and sushi. I'm supposed to be expecting another, but I don't know what it is(my guess in Final Fantasy XIII-2 pre-ordered)

Okay, so for this assignment list the best present you've ever received! Why? Well...I feel empty if I don't post an assignment...

Fifteenth Birthday(and Birthdays in General)

So...I skipped school today. The occasion was my birthday. To think, my birthday ended up being the first school day after midterms. Yuck.

Anyway, now I'm fifteen. Yay! :P

I would have gone to school no problem if it weren't for the fact that it's my birthday. It's bad enough that people knew it was my birthday on Facebook...(that's why I want to delete my profile). My birthday has always been something for my family and me. My sister and I always had joint birthdays(hers was yesterday. She turned 14.) and shared a cake. This year I did nothing, she had a sleep over. We both got our own cakes instead of sharing. It's a sign of how distant we've grown...

Sadly, people on Facebook knew it was my birthday. :( I really don't like my phone exploding with texts from Facebook about people wishing me a Happy Birthday. I really appreciate it and all, but it's kind of annoying. Besides, the reason I skipped school was to AVOID that. *sighs* Oh well...

Oh, I got a guy's phone number. He's just a friend. Everyone else thinks otherwise. They're certain we should be a couple since we both like anime. Not happening. That's about all I've learned we have in common. I'm not going to return his feelings until I learnt that we have more in common! *stomps foot*

Ah, and I get my friend's birthday present tomorrow! Hopefully I'll be able to tell you what I got(not sure since I have to help my sister with her class president speech and I'll be swamped with homework....)

Ah, if it's not too much trouble, could you post your opinions on birthdays? Mine is simple: I don't get why we celebrate them. Of course, I supposedly am getting another birthday present. Wonder what it is! (*crosses fingers* Pre-ordered Final Fantasy XIII-2...not that I'll know till the 31 if so...)
