Holidays and birthdays

I woke up yesterday morning and I suddenly realized that I am going to Majorca on Wednesday. I woke up and thought "wow,a week today I will either be waking up in a different country or my body will be floating to the bottom of the ocean". It seemed to slip my mind when this holiday is. I was making up a list of things to take this morning as I'm incredibly forgetful. Course I'll have forgot to put most things on the list and will therefore have half of what I would if I had not bothered with the list.

It's not just forgetting to take stuff, there was the time when I didn't take my bag off the coach and it them drove away with it in its clutches. Now I always sit on the coach hugging my bag for dear life.

My birthday is two days away (Sunday). I don't want to be 18, 17 is way cooler. It will be a boring day really. I don't have any big party planned and if for some unknown reason I get a surprise party I will not be pleased as I am not a fan of parties.

I'm apparently getting money from my parents but they won't specify how much. Probably a tenner. Cheap skates. Bet I won't even get a birthday cake. Mind you if I don't it would probably have something to do with the fact I said I would rather just get the money for the cake.

I hope everybody who's remembered gets me money as I hate the awkward moment of opening up a present to find something (usually clothes) I hate. In fact I don't think I have ever gotten clothes from anyone that I actually like. I hate the way the gift giver will stare as I un-wrap the gift and watch my expression with the utmost contempt when my mouth downturns. I'd like to say "it's the thought that counts" but no its really not. I wouldn't be best pleased to open up a box of thoughts for my birthday. That's kind of what I got last year, I won't go into that. Can't be bothered, I need a lie down as my eye is starting to throb.

Thanks for getting to the end. Have a mediocre day.
