My birthday was fantastic! This year, I turned 30. My best friends Adeline and Louise organised everything. I knew who was invited, but I didn't know the other details. On the day of my birthday, we took an Uber. I had my eyes closed in the car, so I was completely surprised when I saw my favourite bar! Their back room was decorated for me, and all my friends were there. We partied all night long!
