Last week, I finally reached the age in which every person feverishly looks forward to, and that age is 21. Like many of my friends before me who had turned 21, I wanted to come up with something memorable and fun for all! The problem with that was that for everyone who had turned 21 before me, their celebration involved lots of drinking and bar hopping—I on the other hand, do not drink and found myself stuck on what exactly I wanted to do!
After days and days of planning and consulting with my best friend, I came to the conclusion that my birthday was going to be quite simple, yet pleasurable, and my birthday plans were birthed. I then decided to ask my friends what they thought about my birthday party plans and everyone seemed to be in agreement that it sounded like an absolute blast so with this in mind, I set out to put my birthday plans in motion.
The day that I chose to celebrate my birthday, was a very simple day indeed- I started off by having a pool party at my house and later that evening, I went to Fire and Ice and to Club Ultra (both in Providence, R.I.). I was surrounded by people who meant a great deal to me and even though there was no crazy bar hopping or out of control drinking games occurring, I still enjoyed every single moment of my 21st and this all happened without being hyped up on alcohol. Sometimes, all it takes is having great people around to truly make an occasion worth while. This weekend truly was simplicity at its very best and every single moment were ones that I will treasure forever.
Well, you have shown that you have matured a lot. As a good French saying states, "Aux ames bien nees, la valeur n'attend point le nombre des annees."
