so, i'm again a bit older. and i dare say i quite like being 23 - so far ;)
though, i first didn't feel much like celebrating my birthday - i never do - i eventually decided to ask some friends to come to a pizzaria with me. and some short text messages later i reserved a table at "krivoto" for the evening. i had a wonderful time with some of my bulgarian and international friends, eating, drinking, laughing a lot....after that chrissy and i went to a karaoke bar around the corner. it was completely empty, but she still gave me my private little birthday serenade *lol*. altogether a wonderful start into the 24th year of my life :-P
after weeks and weeks of doubts that any of the mail sent to me by friends and family from germany, i finally received my first package. a friend had advised me i should simply go to the post office and ask, since i couldn't be sure that they'd actually provide me with one of thos little slips saying that sth has arrived for me and i should come pick it up. anyway, i did so and have now a huge supply of "vanillekipferl" made by my grandmother (vielen dank liebe oma! deine kipferl sind einfach die besten!). anyway, just two days later i received two notifications that another package and also a letter have arrived for me. i couldn't pick them up yet, because of the weekend, but i will go tomorrow. i just thought it was kinda cute how on one of the paper slips the mailman indicated some of the information in english and german as he must have figured that if the letter came from abroad and my name sounded rather foreign bulgarian might be somewhat difficult for me to understand :-P such nice gesture - and quite uncommon as that :)
