¡Cumple 25!

That's right...I have made it 25 years. A magnificent quarter of a century. This week I was reminded at how many people have influenced me and changed me along the way into the person I am today; how many friends have shown love and support; and how blessed I have been in 25 years of life. I want to thank many of you for the facebook messages, cards, gifts, dinners, and parties this week. By the end of it, I was actually "partied-out" if that's even possible. I also want to thank everyone for playing a part, whether big or small, in my life these past 25 years. They have been wonderful, and I honestly can't wait for what the next 25 hold.

Here's a brief summary of what my amazing friends here in Korea did to help make my birthday week special:

Monday: Dinner (TGIFridays) and movie (Adjustment Bureau) with Ellen and Anna
Tuesday: Papa Day! --> even though it doesn't really exist :P
Wednesday: Professional volleyball games...go Blue Fangs!
Thursday: Mexican dinner and Thai massage :)
Friday: The Goonies - which everyone felt was the necessary way to spend Friday night since I had never seen it. Plus, Sarah came to visit from Suwon!
Saturday: Leggings party which included dinner at Indy and a photo scavenger hunt around 둔산동 (complete with a leggings cake...pictures to come)
Sunday: Picnic lunch and Yaewon roof party to enjoy the 60+ degree weather!

I can't think of a better way to spend my birthday week. Although I'm pretty exhausted from having such a busy social calendar, everyone made me feel so special. A few of my friends even ate live octopus for me! :P It is now 8:16 and I'm heading to bed. That's what old age does to you! (kidding!) I need some energy to get through one more week and then spring break. What a great life!
