it is common, but i feel happy. when i am at home,then my parents celebrate it for me, my mom will take a birthcake after work and my dad will cook some my favorite dishes for me. and they will sing birthday song for me, and i must make a wish. i have the same wish in each birthday. i hope all my families are healthy. i can't bear that any member has a serious illness. when i live in my city, then my boyfriend will celebrate my birthday with me. we will go shopping. sometimes we buy nothing.

That sounds nice. We usually go out for dinner or just have a cake and presents.

my mom try to prepare a small celebration in our house coz it is like a tradition that she dont wants to break...but for me, with or without foods or party, the presence of the people i want to be with and greetings from my friends and family make my birthday special!

I usually go to dinner with my husband or family and friends. My brother was born on my second birthday, so I also try to celebrate with him. Not to mention my husband's birthday is only a few days from mine. Since this birthdays are coming up soon we can't wait to celebrate together. Who knows this year we may plan a weekend getaway or something.

I usually spend my birthday with my best friend and her husband up in northern wisconsin. Her husband's birthday and mine are three days apart so we celebrate together. She had a big dinner for us, then a Dairy Queen ice cream cake and we shop for a day. This year I couldn't be with her...my wonderful daughter in law had a party for me with the ice cream cake too!

for the most part I dont...as a kid I never had a bday party, as a teen and in my 20s I always had to work and was drunk (same with for Xmas) and since having my kids any money I got for my bday had to go towards bills/rent/etc.....its always pretty much been just another day for me...someday I'd love to have a party since here I am goin on 37 in a few weeks and STILL I've never had a bday party but if that doesnt happen oh well..
