My 21 birthday wasn't so exciting (I was living in Toronto and my boyfriend and I were so very poor!) We just sat around our apartment and drank Mike's and played cards with each other.
My 19th was amazing though (drinking age in NS is 19!) I started out at the Casino (lost $20 on the slots) then went to meet friends at JJ's (bar previously mentioned in the Let's drink topic...the one with Power hour dollar shots!) When I was 16, I had made a date with a friend that on my 19th birthday he'd buy me my first drink. Well, I thought he forgot, but he called a few days before and met me at JJ's and did get my first drink!
I ended up hanging out all night with some girlfriends and the brothers of Zeta Psi ( I wasn't in my sorority at the time....I pledged second semester...and my b-day is Dec 17) It was a blast!
I think my fave birthday was my last one (my 22nd). I have a friend in Boston who is 3 hours younger than me and I planned it so on my way home from Florida for Christmas I stopped in Boston for my birthday weekend. My friends had a Christmas/birthday party the day I arrived (the day before my b-day). Well at midnight, me and Mel had our first (of VERY many!
) birthday shot!
Went to bed around 5 or 6 ish....got up and started partying again! That was my fave so far!
