For those of you who don't know, today is my birthday. I am now officially an adult. That's right. Exactly eighteen years and (roughly) six hours ago, I was born, after nearly dying. The same people who were not aware that it was my birthday should also be aware that I am a big freaking weirdo. How can I prove that? Simple. My birthday gifts.


Some of them are pretty normal. I got a camera case, a framed picture of a flower, a decorative vase and some flowers to go in it. The rest of them? Ahem.

First off, Apples to Apples. BEST. GAME. EVER. It requires that you have a very good knowledge of what your opponents like and don't like. It also requires that you have a sense of humor, or the game gets super boring super fast. It's not my weirdest gift by far.

A Dr. McNinja t-shirt. Yes, Dr. McNinja is a real thing. It's a webcomic and it is hilarious. Most of the time. It's been a little disappointing of late, but I still love it. The t-shirt clearly reads "Ninjas can't catch when you're on fire," with a little illustration to prove the point. And I will proudly wear this shirt to school. I've wanted it for forever.

A Charlie the Unicorn t-shirt. If you don't know what Charlie the Unicorn is, you live under a rock and should go to YouTube this instant to remedy this. It has unicorns, candy, and singing exploding letters all over it. I wore it in public. No weird looks or "I love your t-shirt"s yet, but I'm awaiting them.

The boxed set of the first Warriors series. Yes, I like Warriors. Yes, I specifically requested it. Yes, I will go on to buy the second series. Don't judge me. I also own six Guardians of Ga'Hoole books. I have no shame.

A laptop bag with a kitten on it. No more description is needed.

To top it all off, my loving sister bought me a DVD that has An American Tail, Balto, and The Land Before Time in it. I will watch all three. I will watch Land Before Time tonight. And let me clarify that it is the FIRST Land Before Time. All the ones after that (number 56 or whatever they stopped at) SUUUUUUUUUUCKED. This is also not the first time that I have gotten a kids movie as a present. Me and Lolly made our parents get us the special edition of Aristocats while it was out. I've probably watched it about ten or fifteen times since we've gotten it.


So there you go. I am very weird.
