Listening to: "Happy Ending" - Mika

So, today I am 16. I was not looking forward to today, because lately I am in that disgusting adolescent mindset in which things can fall into only two categories: Life, or death. And so, the idea of being 16 scared me, because I'm realising that everyday I am closer to death, and today, it is a whole year.

But, overall, it has not been as abhorrent as anticipated. I woke up at like, 6:30 this morning, with streamers all over me, courtesy of the girls in Rm 50. How I love them.

Birthday messages:

Jake- "Hehe. Sweet sixteen... And definitely been kissed.. By me. X
Maree- "Good morning my beauteous tessa dear, happy 16th birthday! Sex! Driving! Oh yay! I hope this day is perfect for you as you are perfect every day. Miss you, x"
Aunty Blue- "Happy bday u gorgeous girl. Have a fab day. Eat cake luv aunty blue xxx"
Prue (shock)- "Happy birthday tess.. Have a good day."
Sogan (also shock)- "Happy birthday tessa luen mulham.. today you turn 16.

You could do the worst possible action towards me and i wouldn't feel a thing. I miss you. I don't know why i haven't told you this. But i have found ithard to just send this text. But i'm trying to say that i love you girl. Your one of the nine reasons i wake up every morning with a smile on my face. I don't know what else to say.. But happy birthday.." (Made me cry)

Mum- "Hope you have the best of days. You deserve it. Xx mum"
Liz- "Happy birthday babe xx"

So, yeah. Overall, a good birthday.

But regardless of how good they are, they depress me.
