Not really. That's an excerpt from Taylor Swift's new album, Lover. (Streaming now!!). I just thought it was cool how she referenced the two places I'm from.
It reminds me, I've been out of CA for, what, 13 years now? How much time can pass before I can say "I'm from California," and have that be a relevant statement? I guess that doesn't matter. It will technically always be true; it's said that you can't change your birthplace or connection to it.
Well, my family and I just celebrated my 21st birthday yesterday. It's on September 4th, but we're doing it early since I'll be moved into my new dorm by then. I've got most of my stuff packed up already. It's kind of crazy. I don't think it's fully registered in my head just yet. We went to Asbury Park Boardwalk, where they were gearing up for a free Jonas Brothers concert that's happening today, Sunday, around 7:30. There were giant disco balls swaying in the breeze above their stage.
I wore a flowy, yellow and white, plaid-table-cloth pattern dress.
I'll finally be learning about animation. That's a new thing to look forward to.

My mom wrote "Happy Birthday Agent 47" on my Carvel cake, and that was funny. It had cookie monster filling. Since the people at Cheesecake Factory already sang to me though, my family didn't sing to me at home. There's a part of me that wishes that they did. However, I'm grateful for everything so I can't complain.
I'm (pretty much) 21-years-old now. I feel a little babied, and a little guilty for that, but I guess it's alright. Living at home in your early 20s is nothing to be ashamed of, especially in 2019. We all go at different paces. So what if I still have my permit? I had a JOB for like three years! I paid off a huge chunk of student loans from Marymount, too. It's been a stressful, fun at times, boring at other times learning experience, and...I'm okay!
