I got lots of great presents for my birthday:
- a new phone from my aunt, who came from Connecticut. It’s the kind with the card on the back where you can write can write people’s numbers down. I got the idea from a tv show that I like: The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. I saw it there a long time ago. I like the color: it is blue. It is cordless, sits on a table, and it’s not that big. It was my aunt’s old phone. I first noticed it at her house when I was very little.
- 3 DVDs: Bride and Prejudice from Amanda, Taxi from Soroya, and Fever Pitch from her too.
- a shirt that says Rolling Stones on it from my friend Perry.
- a DVD of Gilmore Girls, from my friend Jamie. It’s a really great tv show about mother-daughter relationships. They live in Connecticut and the mother is not married. Actually the mother got pregnant when she was 16 years old, and the mother’s parents are, well, they are not that nice. It’s a really cute show. My friend Jamie got me hooked on it. She gave me a beautiful blue picture frame too.
- a game called Mad Gab from my aunt. It is a game where you have to guess what word it is.
- a Barnes and Noble gift card from my friend my Ellie. I don’t know yet what I want to get.
- 3 bracelets from my friend Lauren, sort of tortoise shell.
