HAPPY BIRTHDAY & ode to awesome boyfriend

TO ME! :-D Here I am with my birthday post! I'll show you my presents, cake and outfit! Get ready!

On exactly the first minute of my birthday I got my first present from my boyfriend. A little box black box. Of course the first thing you think when you see a box like that is 'ZOMG it's a ring!' and I was hoping for a little jewellery from my guy! This was the box:

Pretty cute, right? My boyfriend usually sucks at wrapping gifts but he did his best and it looked so adorable! Inside, there was a gorgeous ring and a little note saying 'To the happiness in my life, happy birthday. I love you'. *melts*

Gorgeous, right? I love this kind of jewellery, colorful and feminine but not too girly and petite. When I wear tiny rings it kind of looks like my finger is eating the ring. I have a bit of chubs on my fingers. :-D

I love this ring and it shows that my boyfriend really knows what I like! Perfection! We always kind of use birthdays/anniversaries as little tests to show how well we know each other. Books, movies, jewellery, we know how to make each other happy! I also got these amazing earrings:

Again, LOVE! He knows what I love down to a T.

These are all the presents I got from my man, including the ring, earrings, 'The West Wing' box set (one of my favorite tv shows of all time! C.J. Cregg is my homegirl!), a beautiful shade of lipstick (bright peachy!) and a subscription to my favorite photography magazine for a whole year!!! I'm so incredibly happy with all the presents and I'll be enjoying all of them for a long time! I got some presents from my mom too, who never knows what to buy. :-D:

I was out of bodylotion and face cream so that came in handy, the plaid thingie underneath the bottle are pyjamas and a claire's giftcard. I saw a couple of things in claire's that I wanted so I told my mom to go to there if she didn't know what to buy me. She went to claire's but still didn't know what to buy so she gave me a gift card. Which was the sensible thing to do really, at least now I know I got some stuff I actually like. I just went to claire's yesterday and bought 4 pairs of earrings and a red glittery headband. Gorgeous stuff! She also let me pick out some hairdyes and paid for the dyes so that was pretty cool too! I now have toner, bright yellow, bright pink, violet and neon blue to try out! Looking forward to it! OH and every birthday I get the most gorgeous bouquet of flowers from my loverboy, for romance and photography! :-D I took some lovely pictures if I can say so myself and I will be posting those pictures on my photography blog so keep your eye out!

NOW IT'S TIME FOR EPIC CHOCOLATE CAKE!

CAKE COME BACK! I love you so! Sniffles! That was the best cake ever. All made with love by me and my love! :-D Now the outfit and me featuring my new ring, earrings and lipstick!

Great lipstick! How awesome is my boyfriend? Oh and here's a picture of my doggie, running/flying;

Superdog! My day was simple, I had good food, lots of cake and tea, lovely conversations with my boyfriend and brother over skype, we made pizza and drank kiddie champagne because I hate the taste of alcohol. The only upside of turning eighteen over here is being able to drink liquor and I freaking hate drinking anything with alcohol so THANKS LAW, why not give something cool to newly turned 18 year olds instead of giving them a license to get drunk? PFOO. I don't care though because I already had the best presents ever! As I already mentioned I also got bright green knockoff doc martens from my sister, a photography book from my youngest brother and I'm hoping to receive a Legend of Zelda shirt from my oldest brother in two weeks or so! So excited for that! Thank you everybody for giving awesome presents, wishing me a happy birthday and being awesome! The day after my birthday was great too, by the way. We made sushi, watched a very short lunar eclipse and I made pictures of the lunar eclipse, sunset and flowers I got from my man. It was lovely and I can't believe I have such a wonderful man in my life.

Spice up your life!

I've just found this old ass necklace, it's probably fifteen or 14 years old or something. We had the Spice Girls back in the 90's but since I'm from '93 I was a little young to enjoy the culture that was and is the Spice Girls. But of course, having an older sister who's six years older than me, I grew up with the Spice Girls. Songs like Stop right now, spice up your life, who do you think you are, viva forever, say you'll be there, 2 become 1... lots of awesome songs that I probably still know by heart. Also, I can remember my sister having the most awesome lollipops in the world with Spice Girl wrappers and I think chewing gum inside or something? It's amazing how you can still remember these silly little things. My favorite Spice Girl was baby spice, Emma. She was and is such a cutie, maybe it was an early girl crush I had. :-D Now that I think about it, the nineties were full of awesome girl bands. Spice Girls, TLC, Destiny's child and I'm thinking that the Sugababes also came in the late 90's (I'll throw No Doubt in there too because of the strong female vocalist). Just from the top of my head, some of their songs were of course about being in love and digging on dudes but a lot of songs were also about female independence and growing up with that music was pretty cool. I kind of miss cool girl bands. :-(

Awesome necklace, right? As proof of it old assness... the string broke after one day of wearing it. I might go find a different band to tie the pendant on. What's your favorite Spice Girl song or even better, who's your favorite girl band?

'bout the outfit! I still had some aftercurls from my pincurling so I wanted to go seventies. I'm thinking this was a pretty cool outfit and I love this shirt :-D. Only 1 more outfit to go and after that Imma show you guys my new haircolors! OH and I got Zelda: Skyward Sword yesterday, from my boyfriend! I got a textmessage from the store where I pre-ordered Skyward Sword yesterday and I was freaking out inside knowing that I probably wouldn't have it before saturday so I mailed my boyfriend who was at college at the time. Between classes he mostly checks his facebook and hotmail and his cellphone is broken (as a final warning! I WILL give him a cellphone for his birthday if he doesn't buy one himself! I hate not being able to contact him at all times, what if his bus is delayed or he was in an accident or... well, you get the picture. :-D)  so I couldn't text him either. He said something random like 'I'm not sure whether I will be home in time to go get the game with you (he also had the car), we'll see.'

So I waited and waited and 15 minutes after the store closed... my boyfriend comes home. The first thing I think when I see him all happy and sneaky is "AHH HE GOT IT FOR ME!" but he kept telling me he didn't. So I went cranky pants on him, especially after he told me that he probably wouldn't be home soon enough today either. After fifteen minutes of crankypantsing around he probably thought he'd broken my heart into tiny pieces enough so he got his schoolbag out of the car and showed the Skyward Sword box to me. I went crazy happy and I showered him with kisses and for fifteen minutes. So now, my friends... IMMA PLAY SOME ZELDA! Love you!
