21

Yesterday was my birthday, and while birthdays haven't been too big a deal for me in the past few years, I was really surprised about how much more special my birthday was made by the invention of the Internet. At least sixty people wished me a happy birthday either on msn, facebook and the 905 board. It's nice how simple things like a thread on the board to wish me a happy birthday, or my sister leaving a "Happy Birthday Melissa!" post-it on my mirror in the morning can make me feel so happy.

I feel sad for people who don't enjoy those things.

Also, strangely, I don't feel any older.
