birthday blues

i love my birthdays.to just think of my birthday my head starts spinning with ideas.cutting a cake,receiving presents,hearing everyone wishing me a happy birthday..........aah!!!!!!!!!!do you like celebrating birthdays?i do but only to a certain extent.i just can't go on spending my time lavishly during my birthday.what i normally do is i just wake up with a birthday feeling rush downstairs hearing everyone wishing me a happy birthday and have a birthday breakfast.if i do have school on that day i just wear my birthday dress and set out with a box of chocolates like ferrero rocher or something simple like alpenlibe.but this time it was quite different since i had entered my teens.i myself never knew that i was gonna have so much fun.when i woke up i was very surprised to find my room covered with presents of all shapes.i read each and every label.all the presents were either from my aunts,uncles,cousins or friends.i looked around to find something from my parents.but i couldn't find anything.i surely knew that when my relatives remember my birthday my parents surely would!!!after all the party and fun in the evening my parents called me to the garden.in the morning i could notice some kind of secret look in their eyes.i even noticed my parents winking at each other.i thought of asking them why they were behaving so strangely today but before i could open my mouth they opened a lovely box and out jumped a lovely live dalmation pup!!!!!!!!!!!!! so happy i hugged themwith my eyes glowing with pleasure.now i could understand all the ignorance .that was the best time in 2006 for me. i hope 2007 turns out to be a better year than 2006.
