Birthdays

I love how everyone always assumes that their birthday will be a momentus occasion.
Like, everyone's always like "oh I can't wait for my birthday, I'm gonna be [insert age here]"
but when our birthdays get here, we all realize that we are exactly the same. There is no change. We don't look, act, or think any differently like we all seem to expect.
The only thing that was different about my birthday this year is the fact that my grandparents are in town, and I haven't seen them since I was in 8th grade, since they live in Texas.
If anything, my birthday this year has been worse than any other. I mean
1) I woke up every hour on the hour last night, causing me to wake up at like 7:40 this morning.
2) I had to get dressed in like 10 minutes in order to get to school on time
3) I can't talk to the one person that I actually want to talk to because his dad took his phone away
4) I have an orthodontist appointment after school, and after that, I have to go to work.
Which, I'm not complaining about going to work. cause I love my job. But, I work 4-Close tonight, so... that kind of sucks simply because I don't get to spend my birthday at home, I have to spend it at work, until 10:00.
Some Sweet Sixteen this is.
Oh, well.
It could be worse...
