Happy Birthday.

So, today is my eighteenth birthday. Whoah. Eighteen. The cusp of adulthood.

It’s an odd feeling that my rights as a human being have changed since today. Technically, I’m now an adult. I can drink in pubs, be treated just like any adult in court and most of all… I can watch eighteen rated movies in the cinema! YEAH!

It’s been a great day today, although I had no plans for what to do. I got a load of presents as well.  The day before, my aunt and uncle bought me an iPod 5G. Whoah. Never expected that.  Today, I’ve managed to get a lot too… I got eighteen presents from my sister - ranging from presents that joked about to useful and helpful presents.  And of course, from the parents, a bottle of Jack and a butt load of money (£180). Oh, and not to forget… £20 from my Aunty Issy, who lives down in Shipley - near Leeds - and who I’m seeing again on Friday.

Now all I’m thinking is… shall I go down to the pub with the old man tonight?
