St. Patty's Day !!!


Yay. It's Saint Patrick's Day. Oh joy, this is surely my faaaaaavourite day of the year!!
In case you didn't realize, I was being sarcastic. I'm not really a fan of the day. You see, Saint Patrick's Day just reminds me of three things:
1) I'm not at all Irish. I'm British, and we have no cool holidays.
2) I do not have any green socks.
3) I'm under the legal drinking age in Canada, so thus the day is not AS awesome as it would be if I were older. You know?
But also, I dunno, it just seems like a kind of pathetic excuse to drink until you green all over, and it seems pretty classless. I mean, when you see guys do it, it's like "Oh okay. He's a dude. He'll just have a fun time and end up acting like a lion or a gorilla later on and puking on the sidewalk." But when it's a girl, she just seems so trashy..you know???
Maybe I just see things differently from everyone else. I just don't find it to be such an awesome day...plus some stuff happened with someone who's really close to me, and I'm not sure if things are going to be alright, but I really hope that they do...
But back to Saint Paddy's Day. Is it really all that it is cracked up to be? Yes, it's a great excuse to get ripped on a Thursday, but when you really think about it, is it that big of a deal?
First of all, EVERYONE wears green on St. Pats, but like, how many "Kiss Me, I'm Irish" shirts or variations of that do you have to see before you want to use your fist to do the kissing?! It can become incredibly annoying after a while, but on the upside, it is the one day of the year where the Incredible Hulk can blend in..?
In reality though, there's only 10 things that REAAAAAAALLY suck about St. Paddy's Day:
1) I
2) Am
3) Not
4) Of
5) 19
6) Years
7) Of
8) Age
9) And what's up with Canada picking 19 of all freaking ages?
10) Green. Come on now.
TSK TSK. Come on Canada! Loosen up! ;)
Off to watch a movie,
Byebye Bloggers!
Hope you had a fun,  but responsible Saint Patrick's Day!!
