I went to work in the morning, and after the experiment, one of the guys I had met brings me a little chocolate cake with a candle! It was so nice, and so completely unexpected. But I told him he made my day ^_^
It was gorgeous too! With a red ribbon around the outside. And you see that flower on top, and the sign that says "Happy Birthday"? Both edible!
One of the girls, Christine, gave me a set of pretty chopsticks and a cell phone dangly thing:
I <3 both of my friends!
Corinne and I ate some of the cake, and then went to have lunch on campus. We had a very good pizza with all sorts of things on it (I'm getting better at eating weird food!) like pineapple, onions, green peppers, black olives, mushrooms, and pepperoni. (I did take off the mushrooms and olives, but I ate everything else, which I wouldn't have done a year ago.) We also ordered french fries, but they didn't come until we were ready to leave, so we took them with us.
After that, I went home for a little while, until eventually Mel picked me up and we went to swing!
I told the cute bartender it was my birthday, and he gave me a free martini:
A picture of Mel (with the bartender in the background):
And Jackie and Ruth:
So I danced a bunch, got a bunch of birthday wishes (even from the band!) and had a really good time!
Awful picture, but you can see me dancing with Andy (and that is Mel with Girard to the side):
I wore a skirt to swing! With those new tights I bought. I was feeling very Australian. =D
