My 21st was fun but not as wild as I had planned. To begin with I had a test that lasted until 8pm that night
But my boyfriend flew down from Charlotte that day (I live in FL) and then group of about 15-20 of my sisters and friends went out to eat at TGIFridays. I had barely eaten a thing all day and I ordered a HUGE Long Island Iced Tea. I started feeling dizzy fairly quickly. Then the waiters came out to sing Happy Birthday to me and they had me stand on a chair--I thought I was going to fall over and my friends got a few lovely pictures from that. We were planning to go out to Tennessee St. (the strip with all of the college bars) to do my "rite of passage" waltz but it was storming sooooooooo bad. I did not want to walk around in the pouring rain just for the sake of getting drunk so we ended up back at my apartment ending with a low key celebration. Sometimes I wished I'd braved the storms but it was so nice to see my friends at that I'm glad I remember the evening.
On a different note..you don't have to get your license changed on your 21st even if it says "under 21". The bouncers will look at your DOB and see that it's your birthday. I didn't get mine changed until Christmas break (my b-day is Nov.16) and then only because my license was stolen!
