24 hours of 24

I decided to make this birthday extra fun because I was extra excited about the number I turned. It was an AWESOME day. Thank you to everyone who made it awesome.

And a disclaimer: I HATE turning the camera on my self or using the self timer, so today was especially painful in some ways, but I came out with only a few scars. Don't worry about it.

12:00-1:00 a.m. Asleep in my bed on my red pillow. This and the next 6 photos may or may not have been taken at the same time right when I woke up.

1:00-2:00 a.m. Still there.


2:00-3:00 a.m. Yep.



3:00-4:00 a.m. That dream was getting a little crazy



4:00-5:00 a.m. Isn't it fun to look at pictures of me faking asleep? I know, right?


5:00-6:00 a.m. It's coming....


6:00-7:00 a.m. Good morning, world. I am 24 today.


7:00-8:00 a.m. Obviously the first thing you do to celebrate being 24 is to watch 24.


8:00-9:00 a.m. And then you go running, which got a thumbs down because it was FREEZING and windy and ended up raining alllll day.


9:00-10:00 a.m. Just in case anyone was missing my getting ready look (cough, Sarah).


10:00-11:00 a.m. Got to work and there were cupcakes waiting for me at my little workstation. Not pictured: A giant chocolate chip cookie with a huge letter A frosted across the top that my guy boss made for me.


11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. My bosses lit my cupcake and made me blow it out. Then my boss Andrew got out his phone and wanted me to smile for a picture. They are my work parents. Presh.

12:00-1:00 p.m. I actually taught a flute lesson this hour, but I snapped the photo real quick before my student came because I didn't feel like involving her in this.

1:00-2:00 Back at work with 2 of my favorite work-studies. Fer cute.


2:00-3:00 p.m. Driving. And it's raining.


3:00-4:00 p.m. Got my nails done.


4:00-5:00 p.m. Doing a huge a pile of theory homework...


5:00-6:00 p.m Taking birthday calls.

6:00-7:00 p.m. Most of this hour was spent driving to the North End with Brooke. Never try to find parking in the North End. Or if you do, take Brooke with you because she can remember all the good spots!

7:00-8:00 p.m. Dinner at Giacomo's. Mmmmmm. Butternut Squash Ravioli. INCREDIBLE. Anyone who comes to visit WILL be coming here. Tara and Mel and Brooke on one side of the table and me and Brad on the other side. Thanks for taking me to dinner, guys!


8:00-9:00 p.m. Brooke made me a delicious chocolate cake that we had when we got home! Amazing! You are the best, Brooke.


9:00-10:00 p.m. We sat around and talked for quite some time. This is a classic Annie face.

10:00-11:00 p.m. Decked out in my finery to drive Brad all the way home to Malden.


11:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. Let it be known that on April 28th, 2010, in Boston, MA, it was still cold enough for the marshmallow jacket. Ridiculous.
If you made it to the end you get a sticker. Doesn't this just make you realize how boring I am? Pretty much.

Okay, my favorites:

Waking up, good look,
Watching 24
I'm thinking that one must be upstairs in your neighbors dining room, but it looks just like your room

the finery pic to drive Brad home. Pretty good look.

Not boring at all....infact extra points for taking self timed pictures of yourself all day, now that was fun....I may have to do this on my next birthday, or just some random day. Then you may see the greatness of a band teachers day. =)

Heather said...
