Kidding.
Everyone thinks sixteen is the exciting year, but personally, I think seventeen is much more exciting. Of course I loved my fancy sweet sixteen party, but the heavily introverted side of me really enjoyed doing little special things with close friends and family for my seventeenth.
I got to pick out some flowers at the store: yellow roses. They are my faaaaaaavorite. I ordered myself a set of jamberries so I could give myself a manicure. It was fun, but the darn things are really difficult (when you're impatient like me) to do right! My birthday present this year was rather simple: Duck eggs. Sounds weird, eh? Well, with any luck, by mid March, I'll have a couple of these cuties!
I chose fettuccine alfredo for my birthday dinner. Needless to say it was delish. Instead of a traditional cake, I made individual chocolate lava cakes for us all to devour. We also went to evening Mass which was awesome.
I had a great day. Honestly, seventeen feels really good. Sixteen was a year filled with lots of ups and lots of downs. I'm excited to be an "adult" without any of the bills or responsibilities, haha.
Here's to the big one-seven!
xoxo,
Kate
