Happy Hobbit Day!

Hello again everyone! :) I wasn't expecting another post this soon either, but here it is for you to enjoy!
Today is a wonderful day for the whole Lord of the Rings fandom. It's September the 22nd, the birthday of Bilbo and Frodo Baggins! I know that many fans will be celebrating today, in their own ways. If you want to participate too, here are some great ideas that I hear people are doing:

1. Host a party! Invite all of your friends and family, play hobbit games, serve a lot of Shire-like food, and give out mathoms! (small presents that Hobbits give at birthday parties.)
2. Dress up! Or don't, depending if you want to look like a hobbit, or if you want to look like a hobbit with no shoes.
3. Bake! Hobbits love food. So why not make Bilbo a cake? (No one says you have to share it afterwards, by the way!)
4.  Have a Movie Marathon! This is a popular choice, because the very scene of Bilbo's and Frodo's birthday is portrayed in The Fellowship of the Ring. All you have to do is watch all the movie that came out so far (both LotR AND The Hobbit), and cry because Desolation of Smaug isn't out yet. 

This should be enough to get you all started! :) How are you all going to celebrate? Any more ideas? I don't think I'm going to do anything exotic, maybe walk around barefoot and in a hobbit-like dress - that's probably it.
Anyway, see you all soon! :D

Happy Birthday Bilbo and Frodo! :)

Celebrating Your Birth

Well, it's coming up to my birthday soon and I'm really excited! This year I'm having a party in Xtreme Adventure Centre and I invited 5 people from my (former) class. I'm only quite sad about the fact that one of my best friends is going on holidays. Ok, scratch that. She's already there!
There are going to be so many different and amazing things there that we are going to do; even the forty-minute-long drive there is very well worth it!
Archery, aerial trekking, climbing, abseiling, zip lining and the giant swing - there's a lot to do, and it will last about four hours. We need to bring a lot of water for that!
And you know...this means I will do archery all weekends. Both Saturday and Sunday. Which also means I am going to very tired but very happy at the end of the day!
How do you celebrate your birthday? Do you have any special family traditions to make the coming of a person into this world? I also like the Chinese zodiac signs. They are all animals, and - as you may have noticed - I love nature. I know half of my posts are about nature walks, but all the flora and fauna is all around you, so why ever not?
Another thing I found interesting is that I am born in the year of the dragon. Dragon. Smaug, anybody?
