Weeeee! Birthday Week!

Been busy busy busy busy and happy, which is a first and plus for a while. I still get upset when I think of Popeye but so far, I am good.

My birthday is this Thursday. I will be 25. Yes, I am 1/4 of a century year old. Call me old, call me ancient, call me 20th Century Granny! I don't care. I have been feeling the effects of age namely bad back, more allergies and worries about getting old but not so much decrepit and useless. A little useless but I am fine.

I have been doing well in school and thankful have no class this Friday which means I can go home Thursday for my birthday and go out to eat with my parents. I am not sure where to go out to eat but I want both of my parents to be happy about where we go and not feel upset or disgusted with the food. So I will look up places and consult with them when I get home Thursday about it.

As far as presents go, I have quite a bit on my mind but not sure if my parents will go for buying it for me. A cake, a dinner, and money is fine. Or mom said she would take me out for shopping because I need new bras. I am actually bigger than I have led myself on to believe all these years. I need new shoes, socks, and maybe I can talk her into a few shirts or clothes while I am at it. xD Lol I already got a check in the mail from my Grandmother Betty which was sweet of her. I am going to write her a thank-you letter and deposit it this weekend. I am kind of hoping a get a little bit more but I am not bent on draining my parents dry. They do so much for me already.

I think I will do a Birthday Image for myself. It has been ages since I have done one and I am in a real artistic mood lately. I have already done a few images for my story, I drew a Tiger and Bunny image that I did for V-day but it's long pass due for that I still like the image, just questionable on the anatomy. I have created two new characters, hero-related. I am still developing backstories. They are not superpower heroes though, just regular vigilantes who felt like they could do something in the world. They are step-siblings who like each other but remain friends, yet the are obvious with how much they care for one another, and willing to go out of their way for one another. I was on a Hero Character Game where you can make you down hero character with their factory, and I was like....well this is fun. xD Lol

Anyhoo, I have been artistic and out of my depression slump. I kept a journal about any down-like mood I had last week when I was depressed over Popeye, turning older, and kind of alone with not many people to really connect with. But Tiger & Bunny dubbed episodes brought me out of the slump a little and I realized...that show is basically the only thing right now giving me any joy in life. I love Tiger so much. I was on a bend of wanting everything Tiger & Bunny, especially the plushies, pillows, wall scrolls, reading yaoi Doujins, checking up for the new dubbed episodes, and such. And then I started to watch Sabrina The Animated Series and got back into Batman Beyond and now I am preoccupied with making sure I don't get depressed. I am living now....lazily...but still.

So, it is getting late, gotta get up early, weirdly craving pizza again. I had a friend visit me last Sunday and I showed him around the campus and took him to Crooked Crust. He enjoyed it and really admired the campus. I like being open with him and spending time with him. He's super intelligent with quantum physics, mechanics, science, math....ugh how does he do it!?! He is already 26, and he has owned his own golf course that he built from the ground up. Sometimes I forget half the stuff he says because it is just way up there pass my own intelligence in those fields but I find it so fascinating.
