Like Ava. Oh, Ava. Ungrateful selfish b!tch if there ever was one. She didn't deserve a party at all. When she was crying at dinner with her parents and her parents ignored her? Awesome.
I'm always thinking, "Holy crap! My 16th birthday was dinner with the 'rents and a cellphone." Which lead me to wonder: What was everyone else's 16th birthday like?

That show sounds like it would make me barf, in the same way that "Simple Life" does. My sweet sixteen? Well, I think I got my license really close to it, so that was good. I think just the whole fam came from stockton, and we had a meal of my choice (my mom's yummy fried in oil tacos) and my favorite cake (german chocolate) and I probably got a lot of money, and some good presents, and spent time with the fam. Although, I remember my cousins were, respectively, 1 year, and 2 months old, so that put a "baby crying" element in...it was good, but I never had a birthday party with my friends until I moved out, so.... :shrug: My whole family always made a big hairy deal about my birthdays since I was the only child in the fam for 16 years, so that was really great. We did have 3 (old) cars at the time, though, so I suppose driving was the best part.
