21 is not so different from 20, really.

	Not unless you're American...or happened to live there while you were 18-20. Then, 21 is pretty amazing. Is it your birthday? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Why is that? It was yesterday. I'm not celebrating until we get back to the compound though. But I did make cinnamon rolls yesterday. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

You can't drink legally in the U.S. until you're 21. I mean, there are ways of getting around it, but you do sort of have to jump through hoops a bit. So when you turn 21 it's a BIG DEAL and you get really drunk with all your friends. I lived there for a while from when I was seventeen until I was about twenty-two, so I got to experience the big American 21st b-day. Didn't really make-up for the whole suddenly having to follow stupid culturally inapplicable laws, but it was still pretty good.

Happy birthday, then! Probably a good idea to hold off on the celebrating. I take it they're not big on that.

Oh. I don't care for alcohol very much. It doesn't taste very good, and it's dangerous at times, at home, to... lose oneself.

Thank you. Yes, I didn't think it would be a good idea to do any celebrating here. Especially when I'm separated from my friends. There's going to be a party when we return, however. Everyone will be invited. To the first part at least. I'm sure not everyone will be interested in the slumber party afterwards.

	Perhaps. Were we to go a world where privileges are determined by age then I suppose it would. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	It's very plain. Bland, I suppose. I would describe it as sad, but it doesn't exude any real emotion. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I've always liked birthdays. I always try and do something special for the other girls that remember theirs, and for the ones that don't, we give them new ones. I think it's important to have some time set aside just for one person, to make them feel special. Even if it's just five minutes a year with a roll with a candle stuck in it.

As for the count, if just always kept count. Sometimes it's important in the brothel, to know how old you are. For the more particular visitors.
