On April 26th I officially turned 20 years old! It was really exciting for me! We started celebrating on Friday, April 25th at 9:30pm. I had a few friends over my apartment and we danced and laughed and had so much fun! My friend Ali made me chocolate milk with Baileys so I could start my birthday with an Irish drink! So I had my chocolate milk in my sippie cup and dunked cookies so that I could take full advantage of my last few hours of being a teenager! It was very delicious!People continued coming to celebrate with me throughout the night and at midnight my friends put candles in my birthday pie and sang happy birthday to me! They only had two candles, so they found a plastic ring off of a milk container to be a zero so that the pie would say "2" "o" with the 2 candles and the plastic ring! It was very creative and I liked it very much! The pie was actually more like a tart, but it was delicious either way and we all enjoyed it!By 3am everyone had gone home and I was in bed getting some rest before I woke up and continued celebrating my birthday! When I did wake up, my friends and I went downtown for a little shopping! I helped my friend Ellen pick out some new clothes for her vacation and got myself 2 shirts! I also wound up with a big pink birthday hat!After shopping we met up with another friend, Colin, and went to dinner with him and his family who was visiting. His family was extremely nice and I enjoyed meeting all of them and having dinner with them. At the end of the meal, our waiter brought me a piece of cheesecake and had me stand on a chair to announce to the restaurant that it was my birthday! It was a lot of fun and the cheesecake was very good!!After spending the day downtown, we came back to DCU to freshen up before going out for my birthday! So we all changed and made ourselves pretty again, then everyone came to my apartment before catching a bus to go downtown!We decided to go to Temple Bar where a lot of the nightlife occurs in Dublin. We went to a bar called The Porter House which has beers from across the world in the craziest of flavors! One of my friends bought me an apple beer and another bought me a chocolate beer! I liked the apple beer a lot more, but both were great and we had a lot of fun! Altogether it was a great birthday and am happy to be 20!Waking up on Sunday, I had a lot of packing to do before leaving for Barcelona and Alghero on Monday!Next time I will give you all the fun details about my trip! But right now I gotta get to studying for my final exams!I'll be home soon and can't wait to see everyone!!!Hope everyone is happy, healthy and safe! Send me some emails to let me know how you're all doing!
