Happy Birthday:)

Today, in Indonesia, I am 22 years old. In the states I am still 21. Weird how that works:) I have been away from home before on my birthday, so it hasn't been to hard to be away from my family and friends today. It certainly helps to have amazing people here to make me feel loved! Yesterday, Charity and Kim made brownies for our class. The only candle we had was a table candle from Charity's house...oh the life of a missionary:) The kids sang to me and the brownies were amazing!
This afternoon, some of the girls are taking me to a really yummy gelato place at the fancy new mall where Carrefore is. They have a selection on the menu that allows you to choose 9 different flavors of gelato...my kind of dessert! Then we might go to a movie afterwards. By the way, you can go to a movie here including popcorn and a drink for like $3, kind of makes you sick that we fork out close to ten bucks in the states:)
Tomorrow is the big shindig- Jennie, my awesome roommate, has planned a fruit party. She has purchased nearly every fruit available in the Bandung area for me (and the other new people) to try. Thirty five people have RSVP'd, good heavens I have never felt so popular:) I am excited, there are some pretty crazy looking fruits in this country. Many pictures will come of tomorrow's festivities.
Thank you for all of the birthday wishes.
