uh?! you did nothing?! 28.06.2005 | |
| | No, I don't usually do special things for my birthday. I don't like it. I was able to avoid that day for some years, but this year I had to do it. And as a lot of people asked me about I'll explain why.
It's actually quite simple, I usually try to be as original as I can with other people's/friends's birthdays. I do my best to do a nice surprise, and if is just write a card for someone, I write an original text with some joke or some sourprise/funny thing on it.
So, as I do my best to give a nice surprise to the others, I obviuosly expect the same from the others. But, In my case.. my 18th birthday.. that one was the worst, I was on my first job (web developer), and it was Sunday, but my boss asked me to go work on Sunday and he knew that was my birthday. Veery sad! After that one I gave the oportunity to my friends to surprise me, but I felt very bad because for them I tried as hard as I could but they didn't.
Then if you mix that with my family part, where they don't try to surprise you, they say, "what do you want for your birthday?". I said to them a lot of times, that I just want a surprise. But they still asking me the same.
Perhaps I'm wrong and I don't try that hard to surprise the people or perhaps I expect too much from the others. But this year I gave the oportunity to the people again (as I was somehow forced to), and overall I felt very sad again. That's why I just prefer to don't celebrate it, and take it as a normal day. | | posted by ricardo cabello at 21:34 | | 1 comment written so far |
