When your friend jokes about their D&D babygirl wearing a crop top and a collar with their bf’s name on it for Pride, well. You draw it. Happy Pride, dice goblins ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍🩷🩵

Wowzers, I have not been keeping this updated but I have been having the most amazing time here. A lot of people asked about my birthday so I decided to make a quick post about it because it was just so wonderful. Slight background information, my birthday marked two weeks of being on the ship so I didn’t expect much from anyone because yes I had friends but we all hadn’t gotten super close yet. Also, while we’re at sea we don’t get weekends so we have class every day, and I got insanely lucky because my birthday was a no class day so on top of not having classes, I also didn’t have to work! So, I wake up, and Sara and I get ready to go get breakfast. We both accidentally forgot to set our clocks back an hour so we woke up at 6am instead of 7, so we just kinda hung out in the room for a little bit and then left for breakfast after hanging out and talking for like 20 mins. I open the door for us to leave, and balloons fly towards me and at first I was freaked out but then I realized my door was covered with balloons and about one million sticky notes saying Happy Birthday and randomly silly things as well as little kind notes from other people (everyone is so amazing here, have I mentioned that before???) so after reading all of the post it notes we got up to breakfast and immediately Sara tells the (fantastic) workers that it’s my birthday. They ended up serving me my breakfast and made sure I got the yogurt that I wanted that wasn’t out and then they came over with a little cut up apple and began to sing happy birthday to me while clashing the plastic bowls together to make more noise and everyone who was eating breakfast at the time joined in to sing happy birthday to me, it was so sweet. After breakfast Sara and I went back to our room and I took a shower, afterwards I just got out and hung out on my bed with my towel covering me (this is important in about 5 seconds I promise lol) while Sara and I talked. About ten minutes later theres a knock on our door and I immediately look to Sara but I can tell she has no idea who is there. So, I go to the door and check through the peep hole to see who is outside, and I see it’s this new group of girls I had recently become friends with. There was Molly, Jocelyn, Allie, Allison, Kenzie, and Brynlin. And I made the quick decision that it was fine if they saw me with just a towel on, so I open the door and they all laugh but then they sang happy birthday to me and it was just so sweet! I was dying of laughter the entire time because the timing couldn’t be more perfect and then Allison made a joke about being in my birthday suit while they sang happy birthday to me, after they were done we decided to get together in a little bit to play cards. Once they left, Sara and I both were pretty tired so we ended up taking a nap and this kid Markus ended up stoping by our cabin to talk with Sara so he woke us up about an hour later. Once lunch time came around I met up with Molly, Allie, Allison, Kenzie, Jocelyn, and Brynlin and today was the very first TACO day and they were SO good! We also got ice cream and it was also delicious. After lunch I treated myself to a 80 minute hot stone massage and it was the most amazing thing in the entire world. Then I also got a mani pedi because Treat Yoself. Afterwards, I went back to my cabin to get ready for dinner and then met everyone up in the Lido Restaurant, I had invited everyone I could think of because I knew I was getting 2 cakes (one from my mom (love you mom thank u so much <3) and one from my friends) and they are huge! So we ran out of space to fit everyone but it was just so special and wonderful, Sara brought all the international friends and I had some classmates come and join as well as random people and we have this thing called an extended family (more on that later) but my extended family Grandpa John came and joined and he’s just the cutest old man! Also, my friend Natalia sang me Happy Birthday in Spanish, Katrina and Emma sang Happy Birthday to me in Danish and then they got everyone in the restaurant to sing Happy Birthday to me in English and it was just the most beautiful thing, I felt so loved and so happy. Then Sara and basically all the other international students sang ABBA’s Dancing Queen and it just made my night. I love Abba and that song and it was just fantastic. Then we all stuffed our faces with cake and there ended up being 2 other birthdays as well so we all sang along when their cakes came out. After dinner, Sara and I felt like a big ol potato from all the cake so we ended up working out and afterwards we felt so much better! I stopped by the library to say hello to Yuhwa, journaled for a bit afterwards and then came back to my room and ended the night talking with Sara. All in all it was just the most lovely day and evening, honestly probably one of my favorite birthdays so far :)
