The 2nd of June marks exactly one month since I arrived here in London, and 29 years since I was expelled from the womb. Funny that.
Caitlin and I decided to have a joint little-London-party to celebrate our birthdays- as we do every year, given that they are only a day apart- we also celebrated with Erin (one of Caitlin's besties), because her birthday is also on June 2nd.
Our little soiree took place at The Sun Hotel on Saturday evening, out in the beer garden. There weren't many of my people there, but I still had a good time. It had been a beautiful warm day (so much sunshine and a 25 degrees Celsius day), and the beer garden was packed with shiny, happy people.
Last time I had a birthday in a foreign country, 12 years ago now, it was the hardest day of my entire time away. I don't want to be so sad this time around...although I must admit, I am really missing my friends, and I missed them more than ever on Saturday night...but I'm going to stop here, 'cause I really want to try and enjoy my favourite day of the year.
