I'm A Big Kid Now

Well yesterday was my 18th birthday, but honestly, I don't feel any different. People always make such a big deal out of the mile-stone birthdays, as if a major change takes place. Yes, I will definitely witness some changes now that I'm officially an adult, but those are just minor. All-in-all, I am the same person I've always been.
I find it amusing that two days ago I wasn't allowed to buy cigarrettes or lottery tickets or vote, and suddenly, like I'm somehow a different person, I can do all of that. If I had gone to the gas station at 11:30PM on the 28th, I would not have been able to buy a pack of cigarrettes of a lottery ticket, yet a mere 30 minutes later, I can buy as much as I want. It's just silly to me.
Anyway, I did have a pretty amazing birthday. On Saturday, I went to see The Dark Knight with my dad, carol and marissa. It was one of the greatest movies ever! Then we went to Hereford House where I preceded to very nearly eat myself to death. Monday night, some family/friends and I went to Izumi, a Japanese Steakhouse for dinner. After, everyone came over to eat cake, open presents and play some Bopit! Then on Tuesday, my sister and my best friend, Kelly, made me breakfast and decorated the house. Later in the afternoon, Kelly, two other friends and I all went to World's of Fun and had an amazing time! Overall my birthday was pretty fantastic, no matter how much weight I gained.
