Unlike my 17th birthday, I will not spend any of my 18th at college - because it's a glorious Sunday! This year I hit the big adult number and have been repeatedly asked if I am going to pop out drinking in the evening, but it's not really my scene, so nah.
I got a variety of pressies from several people: The Art and Making of The Dark Knight Trilogy and a book about filmmaking from my girlfriend, The Inbetweeners Series 1, 2 & 3 and Monsters, Inc on DVD from my my mother and a new shirt, shower gel and deodorant from my dad. The latter is a good present, but I'm unsure if it's my dad secretly trying to say I reek like a skip.
Seriously, I don't.
In terms of money I received £85 from various family members, as well as a £20 gift card for a clothes shop. My girlfriend also got me a chocolate Crunchy cake, complete with 18 sparkling candles! I'm to pop out later for an evening meal with her, but overall, it'll be a day of relaxation. Fun times indeed.
