Turning 25

I've never really cared before about getting older, but for some reason 25 seems like a huge number. Maybe it's because I will never be viewed as "young" again. Now, the next age to look forward to is 38 when I can retire from the military :)

Yesterday, my actual birthday, wasn't the greatest. I tried to go grocery shopping with Damien in the morning, but the main road to my village was blocked off for a bicycle race. I checked at 5pm and it was still blocked so leaving was out of the question. There wasn't really anything good on TV either. I did get to talk with Scott on the webcam for a little bit which was nice.

Today was so much better though. Even though I had to go to work, my office made me a cake--from scratch! It was so delicious. It was vanilla with the frosting that would normally be found on a German Chocolate cake. They also sang Happy Birthday and I got a card where everyone had signed it.  It reminded me of my 21st birthday when my supervisor at the time had made me an apple pie and I wore a party hat, haha.
