Birthday Issues

So, it'll that time of year again soon.. I usually try to forget in order to not set myself up for expectations but, for some reason everyone has made me painfully aware of the inevitable. Yee..
I'm turning the magical age of 21 and I have no idea what to do. Friends are all busy. Family won't do anything.
The best part, as much as I'd love to drink the day away, I cannot.

SOO, before I sign myself up for as many birthday freebies as possible to burn the day away..
I'd love to hear Basil's suggestions

I find it hard to believe that you can't find a couple friends who will get hammered with you.

Well I didn't really mind, I don't like having a big commotion over my birthday. I don't expect gifts either, but anything will work including socks.

That was last year btw but I will always remember the bad taste and the quiet hours.

Also make sure that the autopsy report shows up as "overwhelmed by food in a short time"

@savaah - Escorts sounds nicer ♥
@windowlegs - My fellow brother and sisters would prompt me not to drink and have fun.
@neveraddaplayer , @shamieekill - Birthdays are really overrated. I totally get how unimportant I am as well. Overall I simply don't want to loaf around and do nothing. Not looking for a grand spectacle, just something to do.
@readers - She a hoe now. I can't stand her music despite it being an anthem to my people.
@upcomingnerd - You get it. Also, medium-rare or no.
@sirkibble - I'd more sooner join the Secret Snake Club & home doesn't have the perfect ambiance for the latter.
@ereckgoose - I probably will. I hope every birthday past that one has gone better :c
@fradddd - If? Haha, Friends are busy, and hanging out with a guy friend individually isn't as much of a high point of my day as would be if I were you spending time with 'A' girl. (:
@xronellx - Oh God.. You have to sign up but; Del Taco: Free Shake, Krispy Kreme: Free Doughnut, Baskin-Robbins: Free Scoop of Ice Cream, Marie Callenders: Free Breakfast, Buffalo Wild Wings: Free Side of Wings etc. [url=http://dealnews.com/features/Free-Presents-The-Best-Retail-Restaurant-Birthday-Freebies/1081056.html]Go Crazy[/url]
@enoch129 - See above, my body is ready. That said Starbucks is dumb, had to of bought a gift card first to be apart of their rewards program that gets free birthday stuff. None of mine are working /:

Anywho, thanks for all the suggestions. I'll probably drive by gather my freebies and proceed to eat/drink myself into a coma- while thinking of you guys (:

@upcomingnerd: Yeah, never really thought about it that way. But I still question the people who "over celebrate."
Maybe they just have a lot of money and can afford it

When I turned 21, my family was visiting Mexico while I stayed home doing some of my dad's work. (Janitor)

I only had 1 light beer and it was awful. Celebrate yourself if you have to.

@shamieekill: Because bruhh. Life is so crappy most of the time, and the chances are most of us have experienced life and death situations...no matter how small that situation may have been. But you're alive, another year. Celebrate it.

Blast "22" by Taylor Swift 21 times.

Sure, you're not 22, but you will feel 22.

Then when you hit your 22nd birthday, you can blast it 22 times and it'll feel more like the real deal.

Yeah I understand that you're 21 and stuff (finally can buy alcohol in America wooooooooo), but I never really got what the hoopla is about, about birthdays.
ESPECIALLY all the crazy sweet 16s, wtf. That's the stupidest crap ever.

I mean yeah you can get a cake and balloons and stuff, but I don't get people who go all out on their birthdays. Relax, you're not important

birthdays are incredibly important to religious people. so just go to your usual church and celebrate with the brethren.

its always funny to see someone expect their birthday to be celebrated then eb let down with they figure out it really isnt a momentous occasion
