You know how people always say, "What do you want for your birthday?" and you have to say "Nothing," because it's the polite thing to do? Well, social mores aside, this is what I would say if I could...

1) Approximately $4,000 is cash. See, $2000 would pay off my unpaid tuition and the other $2000 would pay for my mission trip to Calcutta in May. See? No problems there.

2) 5 new pairs of jeans. I hate all my pants. Either they fit me funny or they are older than a multitude of small children. Either way, I want new pants pronto!

3) A cake. A HUGE ONE. Like, taller than me HUGE. Made with buttermilk icing and Betty Boop's body on the top. and with a really cute boy inside. Perferrably Mike Cera or James McAvoy, or even Patrick Fugit. I'd settle for any of them.

4) A Yurt. This is a Mongolian tent structure. It don't even want to OWN it, I just want to stay in one. A LOT.

5) Like 100 movies. I love movies and there are so many I don't own or haven't watched and want to so much it pains me. Take Cold Mountain, The History Boys, Valley Girls, Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, Chocolate, and It's A Wonderful Life for example.

6) A booklet of free movie passes. Going to movies= win. Paying for them= not so win.

7)Maybe a party. Yes, a party. No one has ever thrown a suprise party for me. I would enjoy that immensely. I myself have thrown tens of parties for people. Why not me?

8) A trip to Columbia. My friend Oscar lives there and I so wish I could see him as I miss him dearly. While you're at it, you can throw in a trip to Australia and England and Huntington, PA so I can visit my other pals I miss dearly.

I think that's all. I'm not asking a lot. Seriously. 8)
