Hello. Today is the anniversary of my birth. How exciting. 
Today was pretty good, besides the fact that it is THE COLDEST DAY IN ALL OVER AMERICA IN 40 YEARS. Geez. 
The highlights of my day:

- People greeting me with a "Happy Birthday" to me in the halls. Because they remembered (even if they did just see it on facebook. The fact that it wasn't immediately deleted from their memory must mean they care to some extent.)
- Mrs. Adelizi telling me Happy Birthday. 
- CHEESECAKE IN ART HISTORY! 
I walked into the room and yelled "MR. JOHNSON! IT IS MY BIRTHDAY TODAY, AND I BROUGHT CHEESECAKE!"
And everyone was very happy. Especially my classmate, Sarah. She loves cheesecake.
The tables were arranged to be very very long, so we reenacted the Last Supper, while eating the delicious cheesecake. Because of such intermission, we only got to review one piece of art.
- Pizza-Doughnut Party with the lovely Echo, Amy, and Rosa. 
We first walked to Echo's house and things. She has a quaint home. 
After Echo was able to put down her backpack and get her money, we headed off to a downtown pizzeria. We grabbed a booth table, and ordered white pizza, cheese fries, and a pitcher of coke...coca cola. Since it was my birthday, the three of them were so kind to pay for my meal. >insert heart emoji here< Our waitress was an elderly woman. She seemed to be in a bad mood, at first, with a bit of a short temper. I wouldn't particularly blame her. She has to deal with a bunch of high schoolers every day, some not as respectful as we. I'm sure she assumed that we were a bunch of delinquents at first, but she mellowed off when she saw that we were actually very polite.
After our delicious meal, we headed down to the new doughnut place down the corner. The two guys who (most likely) run the place are realllly cool. Rosa told one of the guys that he had cool points and then it sort of became a bit of a competition between the two of them, and who has the most Cool Points. I'd like to go back there again, they are very awesome. 
Taking a box of 9 doughnuts and some spanish beverage to the lobby of the downtown library, we began digging in.
Once all of the doughnuts were devoured, the four of us headed to the upstairs of the library and went out searching for board games to play. While up there, we found a large area where books were given away fOR FREE! While searching through these books, I think 3:51PM has passed, and I turned 16. 
I found a few games that we could possibly play. We ended up playing The Game of Life. Seriously love that game. I ended up retireing last, because in the beginning of the game, I had to "Cram for college". Whenever something good happened to me, like I'd get a Life Chip, I'd be like, "It's because I crammed in college." 
I ended up having two children in the game, a girl and a boy. I named them Eileen and Balthazar. 
Also, right before the game ended, I became President. ("Well, we all ran for mayor. I guess we know who won, now.")
At the end, Echo won with roughly $1,800,000, Amy second with $1,500,000ish, Jess third with $1,400,000ish and Rosa last with $1,200,000ish.
Once the game ended, it was time to go home. 
- Giftsgiftsgiftsgifts. I got $90.
In my birthday card, I was originally give $40, but my dad was like, "WAIT!" And basically gave me all the money in his wallet. It then added up to a final total of $90 of birthday money. 

Annnndd that's about it! 
It was a good birthday.
Thanks for reading!
