Do you want your birthdays to be remember and being celebrated, or you just treat that day as ordinary days. When i was still young,i remembered that i am very excited of my upcoming birthdays for my mom prepared delicious food for us. Now as i grow older and older every year, birthdays becomes ordinary day for me and i even stop celebrating my birthdays five years ago, not because i don't want to get old but because i just want to be practical. No to spending. I just pray to God and thank Him for another years that i have and i think it is most important thing to do during birthdays for you will never know what will happen next.

I always excited for my next birthday. But I don't remember what year it started being just an ordinary day. I want it to be celebrated but it always end up nothing special for me. lol..I pray at the end of the day, thanking God.

I treat my birthday like any other day. The last time I had a birthday celebration was probably 10 years ago and before that it was back when I was a kid. I do like a happy birthday wish from my husband and kids, but a celebration isn't necessary for me.

I'm not really big on birthdays anymore. When I was younger I was but now it's just another day like any other and I just don't care what happens. I do like a little special treatment though, I won't lie about that. I do like to be pampered and fussed over just a small bit, but I don't want a huge fuss with so much.

I spend my birthday with close friends and family and we hang out for a while. My birthday feels the same as any other day so I don't feel the need to have a huge party to acknowledge it.

I love my birthday. I'm such a big kid at heart, and used 2 get really upset if my ex didn't do something special for my birthday. Now that I am on my own, my family always have a kids tea party for me, which I love. Mum still puts up birthday banners and balloons and gets me a pink or chocolate cake. Its brilliant, I love it and I will be 35 this year!! I will keep celebrating my birthday until I'm too senile to remember it!
