3 - 18 or 38 or..28??

This year my birthday has been different from the other b'day, above all 'cause I'm in Australia, I live in a different house and I've new friends who share this new life with. It was strange, I don't know how to explaine that, but when I woke up I didn't feel anything, like if it was a day like the others. So i went to work ( oh my wonderful job!) and strolling along the Street, throughout the city, I was listening to the music when I came across with one of my colleagues, who comes from Thailand; with his marvelous english he wished me "Happy birthday!". It's uncanny that a person who's been here for almost one year isn't able to speak a little bit of english, but that's it!

By the way, I came home not too late, thereby I had the opportunity to look for a job, at least a better one; while I was surfing on Internet, seeking a good craft which fit me and at the same time reading ephemeral things (the kind of things that you can summon up on Yahoo website, like a famous actress that get married with a brillant business man and brake up with him in less than 6 days) my housemate entered in my room prowling with a cake and a scintillating taper for my birthday. It was very nice and I really appreciated it.

That evening I invited some friend to celebrate my b'day and, for the occasion I prepared a typical italian (yep!) dish that I'd cooked the previous evening "wasting" three hours of my time but it's worth it. Even 'cause someone enforced me to prepare the bechamel sauce and the meat for the lasegne from scratch, indeed all the work took me around 3 hours.
I believe that this delicacy was appreciated by my friends and my housemates (and my boss as well).

Neverthenless, I think that my dazzling birthday's finished yet; in fact, this weekend, will be the sparkling St Patrick's day and we'll placate our thirsty drinking wine and beer as mucha as we can (we can do it, i know). It will be a great occasion to re-celebrate my b'day and mostly to enjoy all together in a fair evening, one of the last evening before the imminent arrival of the autumn.
