Just had a chance to sit down and share some of the
highlights of my wonderful 30th bday.
First of all, as planned—I took off from work and it felt
amazing not to wake up rushing to catch the bus/train. Oddly enough, I woke up
at the crack up dawn without an ounce of sleepiness in me (most of the time
around that time I am usually dying of exhaustion). I think that’s when I fully
understood the phrase “Cant keep calm, is my Birthday!!!”.
I had a light breakfast (had brunch plans for later on
that day) and then went to get my hair done-- which usually only happens for
special occasions. After my hair appointment I met up with my best friend and
we took the train towards the city.
She chose an amazing brunch spot called Sanabeth.
The atmosphere was amazing and the food was beyond
delicious. I cant wait to go back and try some more of their breakfast/brunch
items. We also had a couple of mimosas to celebrate. I could have not asked for
a better way to start my birthday. My best friend really went all out with
this! Love you Christina!!
After a nice brunch and a few hours of conversation about
our past, present, and all of our amazing goals for the future we headed our
separate ways. It was also her brother in law birthday so she had some other
plans that day. I had to head back to my parents house to continue the
celebration! Before leaving the city I did a little shopping at H&M (which
had so many cute clothes, by the way) and then headed towards to the subway
back uptown.
Let me just say one thing: The love I have for my family
is beyond words. Those are the people that have been there for me 24/7/365 and
whom I can always count on. I had a low key/super amazing birthday dinner,
received gorgeous flowers, and then was surprised with the coolest birthday
gift I gotten to date: An IPad!!! I know I may be late to the ‘IPad’ world but I
could not be more excited. It is something I’ve wanted for a while.
Below are some birthday pics for your viewing pleasure:
