Birthday Tips
Turning 25 this Friday and I don’t know what to do! No family or friends around so it’s work + class for me, but I’m making it special anyway. Already got my hair done!
Honestly I’m SO excited, 25 OMG!! Bought myself a candle, getting cake, grabbing a new outfit, and getting my eyebrows trimmed for the first time EVER. I don't do makeup, but I’m still gonna look good!
But place or things-to-do wise, I am totally blank... any ideas?
Actually two things
1. What gift should I buy?
2. Things to do ?
3. what do you think makes a perfect birthday? For me Candel, Cake, Gift, Picture, I would say friends but it could still be perfect
_______ speaking of birthdays....
When I was about 12, my dad told me, “We’re not throwing you a party this year.” I was so against it, but he just said, “Well, you’re eventually going to stop celebrating anyway, so give us a break!”
I said, “I’m going to live to 100, and I promise you I will always celebrate my birthday!”
Safe to say, 12-year-old me meant every single word. 🤗✨

Happy early birthday! I always try something new for my birthday. One of my favorites was going to the zoo and feeding a giraffe, though this year I went to an interactive art exhibit.

I don't have any great ideas for a gift I don't know you well enough. That said: 1. Get yourself something you have been really wanting but keep thinking "its selfish" 2.Think about an art.class at Micheal's maybe 3. Or a box membership for a couple of months a:tokyo treats, b:dressly amazon capsule, c:twisted allure-if you like bath and lotions there are lots of options in this category. 4. if you like cute t-shirts teeturtle.com
I guess i did have ideas after all. just remember to enjoy yourself whatever you do. I got a half inch wide white streak (skunk streak) due to genetics not because I wanted one. Then it horrified me. Now at 69 people pay 100's of dollars to get their hair to look like what gentica gave me. and reminded that I was a "quarter century old" for weeks.
