December 2, 1987. 1:36 a.m.




















A little girl was born twenty one years ago. She grew up and is now heading off into the world to do crazy and wonderful things! Ok, so it was my birthday today (tomorrow doesn't start until I've gone to bed and woken up on a new day). I just wanted to post something special . . . to commemorate all the amazing and wonderful things that happened! I finished and turned in a psychology research paper, I got two papers turned in, and graded with perfect scores(!), I had many many many birthday wishes, I made some sweet Saturday Divine Comedy plans, I got asked out on a date for Friday night, I went to the Temple, I watched Bolt with Heidi and laughed really hard, Bradley took me on a lunch date to Bajio where I thoroughly enjoyed my delicious meal, I was treated to free Jamba by an incredibly sweet coworker, I got lots of movies (my favorite thing in the whole wide world - with maybe one or two exceptions) and a digital camera! My home teachers and visiting teachers gave me presents, my roommate made me dinner (and it was delicious!) My secret santa brought me orange jello (MY FAVORITE!), I have amazing roommates, an excellent bishop and an awesome stake president. I had a little meeting with him tonight, and if you're still reading this post, you'll know that my mission papers are in and I am awaiting a mission call. :D There . . . it's official. Now you can tell everyone you know, and I'm telling everyone I don't know too! I had two friends get engaged on my birthday and I'm going on a mission. A really good friend dropped balloons onto my balcony, ballasted with candy (with gummi bears, my favorite chewy candy), and now I have to either do homework or go to sleep. Maybe one before the other? I'm exhausted because the day has been literally, so incredibly amazing. Thank you to everyone who made my birthday wishes come true. Thank you to my wonderful family, without whom, I would not be a Mecham. Thank you to all those who gave me their love today. I felt it in great abundance. :) And, I love you all back that much more.
