For the past month, I've been so excited for my birthday. I don't know why, but some reason number 28 was THE ONE. I told everyone and had my own little countdown at work and home. Ocassionally I had my moment of doubt (aka: letting the family get to me, money problems, friends) but I got over it and carried on in my birthday countdown. It wasn't until my actual week of my birthday that thinks went down. Monday I was supposed to go to Disneyland with Rebecca and Gaby (who I'm still a tad hurt she's best friends with Rebecca when in the past she couldn't stand her and now goes to Disneyland with her without me). It was raining but I was still going with them until Gaby finally cancelled and decided to go next week. Both her and Rebecca are in school so they still have a week's vacation. I, however, have an actual job that makes me work everyday (except Mondays and Fridays) and since next week was a busy (yeah right!) week, I couldn't take time off. What do they do? They go to Disneyland yesterday and then in February we'll go. You know darn well things will happen from now to February and we will not go. So I have resorted to go with my aunt Saturday (who doesn't like to get on rides).
Next, I had the worst birthday ever in the history of birthdays. If I knew I was not going to get any presents on my birthday, I would not have opened my only 2 presents from Carilly and Marcus (I mean Guillermo -- love how I changed his name!). Then we go visit my uncle and his family after visiting my aunt and the boys. We ended up staying the entire day with my uncle (when we were supposed to be there for a bit then go home and have my traditional birthday dinner) and not having my dinner. Worst, I didn't have a birthday cake! You know I was crying all night (except when my aunt surprised me with one at 10:30pm). Sunday I had lunch with my dad and stepmom (which, surprisingly wasn't bad because it was just them and not the rest of the family. My tia, however, had to throw in on her card her sassy comment). No birthday dinner that night from my mom again. I got my dinner Monday night (and a new cake) but supposedly I'm having a nicer birthday dinner next month.
HOWEVER..
My birthday wasn't all that bad. Guillermo texted me the week before my birthday, out of the blue. He remembered my birthday (which surprised me because he never remembers anything) AND he actually had a gift for me. I was so excited all last week, waiting for Friday when I was going over his house. It was like old times between us because things weren't weird or anything like the last time I saw him. So much that right after texting Carilly that things between us were perfect (just friends), we go back to the same situation as before. Only difference: I leave right after the fact (mostly to go pick up my mom but still). What does this all mean? I have no clue.
