As you may be able to guess it was indeed my birthday! I am no longer in my early twenties...I am now the grand old age of 24!
Usually back home I'd either be working on my birthday or would have exams the next day so it's been a good few years since I've actually celebrated my birthday so this year it genuinely was one of my best birthdays ever. The girls made sure I enjoyed myself and I had a great day.
It started by being woken up to a coffee and card which Carla had bought me. I then showered and when I came out I was presented with red velvet cupcakes and a candle! Once we were up and dressed Michelle and I headed to our local crepe cafe and had some brunch. I've been wanting to go to this cafe since we moved to Newtown and it was SO good! My crepe had ham, cheese, spring onion, oregano and lemon- beautiful! We then headed into the city so I could pick up a parcel which my parents had sent me full of unexpected pressies. After dropping off the gifts back at the house we then all headed to Darling Harbour where we enjoyed a few cheeky glasses of sparkling wine (during a much loved happy hour). After happy hour had ended we headed to a wee Irish pub where we discovered it was Drag Queen karaoke night. After enjoying this new experience we then headed up to Kings Cross (where the hostel we stayed in is) and met up with some friends at a new bar/club.
All in all it was a fully packed day, on a budget and was bloomin' fantastic!! Maybe being 24 won't be so bad after all...
