It's 12 of 12 time again. (See Chad Darnell's blog for details.) And it's my birthday!! It wasn't a fancy birthday with lots of activities and different locations, but a lovely day nonetheless.
1) 00:00Happy birthday to me. *cheers*
2) 00:01Meet Lexie, the newest addition to my household. It's this year's birthday present to myself.
3) 00:45The birthday cake is baking in the oven. As always, when things aren't supposed to go wrong, they usually do. So, the cake crept out of the pan. lol
4) 00:55While I'm waiting for the cake to finish baking, I do what I've done for most of the days recently: study for my next big exam a week from today...
5) 01:15IM'ing with Helen (fellow 12 of 12'er). She stayed up past midnight (her midnight) to wish me a happy birthday. :)
6) 08:00I was awoken by an unexpected phone call. Yes, it's my birthday and phone calls aren't really that unexpected, but I didn't expect a call from this specific caller... After breakfast, I went to the copy shop, then to the library and did more reading once I got home.
7) 13:00Reading is exhausting, so it was time to take a nap. lol
8) 15:15Checking the message board I post at I saw all these lovely birthday posts for me. :)
9) 17:45Finished setting the table for tea and cake with two of my closest friends who arrived shortly after.
10) 20:50We went on a little shopping hunt to buy an adapter that connects my PC screen to Bert, my MacBook. The stores we checked first didn't have one, so we went to a third shop and although they had already closed they sold us an adapter. This is one of my friends doing the actual connecting work.
11) 21:30And it's done! :)
12) 23:20The inauguration of the double screen: watching an Alias episode with Helen - the video on one screen and the chat window on the other.
This was my birthday. :)
The theme for this month's bonus picture is "unexpected". I don't have an idea yet, but maybe I'll add a picture later on.

Happy Birthday...woohoo!!!

Awww, I love that you and Helen were in the 12 of 12 together! I hope you had a great birthday! I included a little something special for you at my 12 of 12! ;-)
Awww! What a fun 12 of 12! The first one is a really pretty picture of you. I love the two-screen set up. Man, I'd love to figure out how to do that. And as Elaine said, it's very fun to "see" Helen in your 12 of 12 too. What good fortune you had too, to get that part you needed even though the store was closed! Sounds like it was a great birthday. :)
oooh you got yourself a dual screen setup!! :lovely:...this is my dream thesse days!..happy Birthday Christin :hug:
Lovely Cat! ;)
Dann ein wenig verspätet: HERZLICHEN GLÜCKWUNSCH zum Geburtstag nachträglich :) Der Kuchen sieht ja lecker aus *sich ein Stück klau*. Der iPod ist wirklich schick. Seit wann gibt es die in farbig?
Oh, und viel Glück für Deine Prüfung. Ich habe zum Glück Pause bis Februar und warte momentan noch auf das Ergebnis meiner Diplomarbeit.
LG
