My birthday falls on June 27, and this year it was a day full of tears and goodbyes, because today was Bill Gates last full day at Microsoft. Now I’m not really going on to talk about Bill Gates I just found that to be clever opening. Now my birthday was full of surprise seeing how I was given the impossible. Yes, the device so hard for one to get their hands on fell into mine, and that gift was WALL-E. Just kidding, it was Nintendo’s Wii.
Today I turned 18, and my family certainly made it a wonderful birthday, Steak ‘n Shake however did not. Nothing could be better than going to a restaurant you love and seeing the things you crave the most no longer exist. And nothing could be more exciting then having a group full of waiters singing Happy Birthday in Spanish and off tune – at least I was surrounded by the people who mean the most to me.
Turning eighteen opens up a whole new set of things I’m allowed to do, unfortunately there a whole set of things I would never do. The only perks are that I can vote; enter a contest without entering my dad’s birthday, and buy a lottery ticket – maybe I’ll get lucky. But whatever eighteen brings for me, I thank the people who made this celebration a very happy 18th birthday.
