Birthday? Meh

So today's the day that people usually create a big deal of.. a birthday. But more annoying is the fact that it's my birthday, so I'm expected to be excited, pissing in my pants with joy. And when I tell people not to blow it out of proportion and not to be so excited they just look at me like I'm mad or like I am the killjoy here. Seriously, I don't get what's wrong with not being excited about my birthday :S. It's not a written rule to be excited, and even if it is, it's not mandatory to follow every rule in the book.
The only benefit I got out of this entire birthday sham is that I get to bunk school and spend the first half of the day with Amogh and the second half with Adhishree. I'm also going to be a cool rebel and get my ear pierced without my parents' permission. To quote Adhishree "Epic! You rule! :)"
So this has significantly improved my mood. Not so much the piercing as the fact that I'm being a rebel.
Really, I can't wait to get out of this hell-hole called the IB and get back to leading a normal teenage life in college.
God I love my friends. At least some of them. The ones who care. The rest can just go fuck themselves.
That's all for now. I'll welcome you with pictures of cool ear piercings. Ciao :)
