Well this year is different. My birthday fell on Easter, I feel special now, though I'm not sure exactly why. Anyway turning 22 made me thing, what good is there about 22. I was trying to think, it's not like 16, 18, 21, 25. I can't be like, "Yeah I'm 22 let's go get wasted." Well I could but it wouldn't be anything special.
Oh well, some of my friends had their 22nd birthdays last week so we all had a party and had a bunch of those 22oz bottles of beer. Now I just can't wait til I turn 40.

I had this same delima turning 22 I think that everyone feels exactly how you do. 22 just means your not 21 anymore so your not the newbie at the bars. which is a nice feeling. But I just turned 23 now I just feel like i'm getting old.

Anyway happy birthday and happy easter

I think everyone goes through that (well, American's at least) at 22. Nearly every birthday leading up to it has been significant, and then 22 hits and BAM, just a sign you keep getting older...............












Ah well, have a great birthday regardless!!

Happy Birthday, man..

And 22 has one good reason to celebrate, at the very least: You're still not 30! *sigh*
