Birthdays. LOH. #293

I'm not much of a celebrator of my own birthday. Yes, I do get excited when the day is drawing near, but once the days comes, it feels like just another day. I do think one of the reasons I feel this way is because I usually don't get to do what I might have been imagining long before the day. Mainly because I didn't have the resources to fund the imagination.

For instance, last year, I thought to myself that I was going to get myself a new phone on my birthday, or within the week of my birthday. I was still a student then with almost no savings. I tried several things to make money so that I could fulfill that desire. As you might have guessed, none worked out. At least as I hoped or thought they would. So when the day came I just accepted the birthday wishes as normal greetings and moved on.

If I'm able to get a good source of income before my next birthday, there are definitely lots of things I would love to do. The top of the list is to get a bigger and better apartment, and get it furnished. Either fully or to some reasonable extent. Another thing is to get myself a brand new phone with my own cash. And if the funds are enough, I'll throw a little part at my apartment and invite a few close friends and family. Because I will consider all those things as achievements.

I do love celebrating other people on their birthdays. I mean, it give me great joy when I see birthday celebrants unboxing their gifts, or receiving their birthday surprises. It makes me really happy, especially if my gift is part of the gifts received by the celebrant.

Birthdays are events I really enjoy, even though I'm sometimes indifferent about mine, for reasons already mentioned. I do like celebrating or seeing other people being celebrated.

Thanks for stopping by my blog. See you soon. 🤗

peace out ✌️
