I forgot to mention this throughout this whole time, but yes it was my birthday last Saturday on the 27th of October. Not much happened during that day, and funny enough, being as I am now 21, I feel so mature now that I wasn't completely cheerful about this birthday as I did among the years of my youth back then. I guess it happens to everybody.

Anyhow, aside from my sister coming to visit for a whole, I did some things with my mom and dad. First off, my sister and I went to my mom's work and we decided to go to a Mexican restaurant called Escalantes. My sister and I only had a small appetizer because we were going to have a big dinner afterward. Then, I got some little gifts from my mom and my sister and I headed back home.

Then, for dinner, my sister, my dad, and I went to Steak & Ale, where I had two lobster tails. This was my first time trying out lobster tails, but it was very good. When we got back home, we had my birthday cake and I opened my presents and cards. For presents, I mostly got grown-up stuff like a bathroom rack, a toaster oven, and a couple of movies (Finding Nemo and Wildhogs). Then, we watched Wildhogs until nearly midnight, and my sister decided to head on back to Austin.

I had quite some fun that day, and yet, I feel so mature now that it is going to take me a while to get used to the fact that I am an adult now. I have always been feeling young this whole time and the only thing that keeps my youth strong now are my video games. They've always me of how much I enjoyed playing then ever since I was just a toddler. Those were good times and ended up being good memories for all the years to come.
