Birthday.
Let’s talk about my Birthday…because it was awesome.
It was this past Friday. I woke up spent the day like I would spend everyday…cruising around the Internets, chatting to friends, playing some games, painting, listening to music, etc. I was told to be ready around 5 and that I was going to get to go out to dinner and then maybe to a movie afterwards.

A doctor usually wouldn’t prescribe anything and most over the counters tend to be less heavy hitting than in America or herbal.

Winter in America
I’m feeling pretty good these days. I got the chance to make a trip home for Christmas this year. It’s been amazing. I’ve managed to see everyone I wanted to see at least once, be with my family for the holidays AND escape my super annoying roommate who is a new addition this year. (More stories on her are sure to follow…so far I’ve been being good.) I’m even...
