22 was a good one -- my last college classes ended the week before (and I had written a paper that the Chair of the Film Department called brilliant); beautiful weather, went to a swimming hole with friends, then we went to a diner and the waitress brought out a cake with a candle on it, and we capped it off with some beer at my house. Much hearth, laughs; sensorially pleasant Other contenders: 25 (clubbed and watched the sun rise); 14 (huge party at my house the day the world was supposed to end) Did you throw an epic party? Did someone make you feel special? Is there a birthday from your youth that makes you feel nostalgic?
