Throw me a party

Since I’ve last written here, I’ve turned 22.  I’m OLD.  My life is like…  2/3rds over now.  I’d better make these last 11 years something good.

I didn’t really have a birthday party.  I just went to see the new Harry Potter movie.  It was good, though I liked the Prisoner of Azkaban more.  The thing I liked about it was that the whole time travel thing was done so well.  I’m generally completely unimpressed when a movie attempts time travel, but I’ll have to say, they did a good job with it in Harry Potter.  I really need to read the books.  I imagine JK Rowling did an excellent job in writing the time travel sequence.

Anyway, back to my birthday.  As I was saying, I just went to see Harry Potter and then went to eat.  No big party.  Actually I’ve only had one big party for any of my birthdays that I remember, and that was when I was 16.  It wasn’t even a big party really.  Just a group of about 5 friends together and some party trays full of chicken nuggets from Chick-Fil-A.  So I’ve never had a REAL birthday party from the days that I actually remember.  Even when I was younger, we didn’t really have parties.  Someone throw me a party for my 23rd birthday, please.

Now on to talk about money.  I’m in the process if writing a proposal for reimbursement for the money I spent going to DC for that APA conference.  If I get a full reimbursement, that will be 300 bucks.  Some will go to my ex though, who helped pay for half when we went up there.  That money will help me pay for all my interviews for graduate school that I’ll hopefully get.  And for Christmas presents.

That’s enough for an entry today I think.  I’ll try to update frequently over the Thanksgiving break.
