Happy Birthday To Daniel!

So yesterday was Daniel's 21st birthday and we celebrated with him! It was really nice, I thought, how we all came together and celebrated his birthday as a house! It made me realize that I have a great support system and some really great people in my house! Lena baked a really yummy cake and we had a bottle of champagne in his honor (in the funny nose glasses that Claire is modeling)! We also gave him a bottle of Jameson befitting a 21 year old! Then we all hit the town for both Daniel and my first proper PUB CRAWL! We started at this place called West Bar which gives out glow-stick bracelets when you order a cocktail! They are modeled ever so elegantly below. They kinda look like Captain Planet! Anyway, we then proceeded to The Hobgoblin which is a neat old pub! It had a good pub feeling to it and no tables so we had to stand at the bar which encouraged us to move on quickly! Our next and final stop was the Beer Cart Arms which was really fun! They had great music playing (including one of my favorites MY SHARONA) and we had our own nook! We remained there until it closed....which was at 11:00 cause all the bars close around 11 or at the latest 12 (which I like because I don't do well with really late nights). And we headed home on the bus! It was a really fun night and I kinda felt like it was my 21st Birthday too since it was my first pub crawl! I also really enjoyed hanging out with everyone (several of Lena's friends came along too) and having a night out! I hope to do it again soon (but hopefully next time I won't have class the next day). Lena even confessed to me that they were worried about having new house-mates because their last ones were so nice, but we are just as wonderful she said and she's really glad to have us! I too feel blessed to have been placed in such a nice house and last night was a real testament to what a great house it is!
