Mr. Carrymel turns 24!

The next biggest thing to happen to the world since July 27th is today. October 4th. 

Otherwise known as J's birthday!!!

I'm gunna be cheesy, romantic and predictable and write him an open letter and you're gunna like it. So here goes.

*Ahem*

Dear J,


I'll start off by saying happy, happy, happyyyyyyyy birthday because it only seems right. I know that today is a big day for you since it was the day you were born, but I celebrate you everyday, just like I celebrate us everyday (not just on an anniversary). Your special day means a lot to me, and I want you to know that you have made every single birthday I've had with you phenomenal, and I will strive to give you nothing less. Someone as unique and good-hearted as you deserves the world, and while a lot of people have been privileged enough to have you in their life, I am the only one who you've let into your heart like this and I am honored. I want this day to be fantastic, magnificent, and a COLOSSAL great time for you because as hard as you work everyday, you deserve to feel all of those positive vibes you give out to everyone ten times as much on your day.

You are my very best friend, bullfrog, and yes, I'm tearing up typing this (you know how I do).

Happy Birthday Babe!

(See how I did that in your favorite colors? Haha. I'd totally marry me. . .but again, this isn't about me. This is about you :P)

Loving you the most,

Nhya aka 

Pic Tales: My Bday weekend in a nutshell

The day of my actual birthday I got flowers, red velvet cupcakes and a huge cupcake balloon bought to my job. Then that weekend I went to the beach (hence the "tan") and out to the club with another bday twin of mine.

Clay (the blonde) shares my bday!

. . and so did Hannah!

All in all, it was a good birthday weekend - although my bf is absent from most (okay, all) of these pics because he's been working his little tail off. Not gunna lie, I miss him. But G's don't cry.

There's a lot I wanna touch on in more detail such as me getting an award from Shane and me getting my 100 followers (woot!) but for now I'm just gunna blog stalk you guys for a lil bit and continue to get ready for my move. And by "get ready", I mean "mentally prepare myself" because I haven't packed a thing and won't be moving until mid-August. Just to clarify - me and my roommate are moving to Astoria, Queens. I know that's not the "city-city", but it's the city enough for me since I'm a Long Island girl lol. You'll hear all about it soon enough.

Minor Updates:

• I really, REALLY gotta slow down with watching True Blood. It's getting a little ridiculous. I'm at the point where I'm having dreams intertwining real-life and the characters of that damn show.

• Someone needs to hire me, for real, for real.

• My little sister looks a lot like me. Yikes!

Me.

Her. See?!

• It's AUGUST!!!!!!!!!! WTF?

Holla. It's my birthday!

*Busts a Dougie*

Yes, you've heard (read?) correctly. The day has arrived.

I know I've talked about celebrating here and here, way beforehand, and I've confused a lot of you but THIS IS LEGIT. July 27th, 2011 is here and I'm 22 years old!

To commemorate this new year in my life and start my countdown to 30 (wahhh! :(), aside from chronicling the f.cktivities I partake in (which will be outlined in further detail after this weekend), I'd like to share my 22nd year of wisdom with all of you. Some of you might have already realized these things at a younger age or still haven't realized it yourself, but I'm sharing it anyway.

Life has a way of re-routing your plans and to enjoy it to the fullest, you just have to go with it. Everything will work itself out. Don't be afraid of new experiences and new people and certainly don't dwell on old things. Those things happen to make you a better person today.

So there ya have it. Gotta take my own advice!

Also, I wanted to shout out all of you guys for being such awesome followers once again. I'm like, 5 followers away from 100 and I've only been actively updating this blog for like a month. I love that you guys care enough to read what I write or even to comment on anything. Loves it. *throws glitter everywhere*

Ohh, and special shout out to Rose and Miss Sassy Pants for sharing this birthday with me! I don't want to toot my own horn, but I'm inclined to believe that Leos born on July 27th are made from some of the best stuff on earth because everyone I met with my birthday is so awesome, it's almost not fair.
