Hey guys!
I turned 19 yesterday!! 🎉 🎉 I had a really nice day for myself. Since I'm currently working as an au pair in England, I couldn't spend the day with my family 😕 But it was alright - it's wasn't the first time that I wasn't with my family on my birthday (If you go wayyyy back on my blog, you'll know that I spend 3 months in Spain as an exchange student around when I turned 14 y/old)
Otherwise, I spend all of yesterday mostly by myself.
I kickstarted my day by having video calls with my family back home in Denmark.
It was really nice talking to them!

Then I opened (some of) my birthday presents; a sketch pad and professional drawing pencils and coloring pencils. (Some of - bc I'll get the rest and "the real one" as my mom describes it when I come home for Christmas)
The family, I'm staying with in England had told me I could sleep in, so I decided to watch a Christmas movie called "Happy Christmas" - that turned out to be kinda weird and not really Christmassy..
I then went down for breakfast - got a nice bowl of chocolate knock-off cheerios and then completed all of my "morning chores" around the house.
I only had the slightest ideas of how I wanted to spend my birthday. I knew I wanted to do some water coloring and play some Sims 4 (none of which I actually did) but other than that I had no idea.
I decided to go to the cinema and watch "Battle Of The Sex" and it turned out to be a really good movie! I would definitely recommend watching it!
When I got home I drew a little, had dinner (and a yummy chocolate cake for dessert) and I completed my final online course in photography (that I've been taking the last 4 weeks). After that, I watched the Masterchef Professionals episode of the day with my English family and then went to bed at about 21:15.. Or, Well, I watched two episodes of Zumbo's Just Desserts before falling asleep..
All in all, I had a pretty good day even though I spend most of it alone.
I don't think it's a bad thing to spend your birthday alone at all! You can do whatever you want! - but still.. I would have liked to spend it with my family.
See ya' next time!
