Its my BIRFDAYY!!

Today is my 21st birthday and I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect weekend. These last few nights have been filled with late nights and Halloween parties. Jessica and I decided to dress up as dominos this year for Halloween. We thought it was a brilliant idea and the outfits actually came out really well. We wore black leggings and boots with a large black t-shirt. On the t-shirt we had cut out felt white circles and strategically placed them to look like dominos. As clever as this idea was, it seems that many people at TCU think that dice are black with white dots because most people who saw Jessica and I thought that was what we were. The few intellectual friends that we have were able to figure out what we were, but all in all Halloween was a success because there were no lost phones or cameras, and most importantly no drama.
Today a few girlfriends and I went to Blue Mesa for brunch, and let me tell you, if you have not been there before for brunch you need to as soon as you can. Blue Mesa offers an indescribably delicious buffet with everything from waffles and do-buts to enchiladas and fajitas. Needless to say, I’m still full nine hours later. The weather today was so incredibly beautiful that it almost seemed like a sin not to be outside enjoying the weather. Jessica and I decided to head down to the Botanic Gardens to do homework and relax. In my almost two and a half years at TCU, I have not yet made it to the gardens, and I was in awe. The place is absolutely beautiful! The ponds, areas to lay and the leaves on all the trees had changed for fall. It was amazing! This time was supposed to be allocated for doing homework, I on the other hand read one of my favorite books, “Eat, Pray, Love,” and slept, while also trying to fend off psychotic bees that thought me and Jessica’s bags and towels were flowers. Afterwards, I continued to enjoy my day of relaxation and went on an hour long bike ride through the neighborhoods around TCU and onto Trinity Trails for a little bit. As hard as it has been, ever since I got home around 6:30, I have been procrastinating doing my work. What’s new though?
I am currently in my bed watching The Devil Wears Prada, and plan on sleeping till Thursday. I couldn’t have asked for a better weekend and birthday! Thanks to everyone who made it great! And especially Shannon for calling me about something completely off the chart and not remembering it was my birthday till an hour later!!! You’re still my favorite!
