What are birthdays?!

What are birthdays?!

Seriously,
birthdays are just 'special' days where you were born into this world.
It sounds 'special' enough,
but they are just any other ordinary days of the year.
Having to go through the same days every yr,
why can't we jus celebrate once and for all?
No need to trouble people with birthday wishes and presents.
No need for thinking about where to go eat.

I'm beginning to lose faith in birthdays.
Koreans have their birthdays celebrated with seaweed soup in the morning.
What do we Singaporeans have?
Celebrities are made to keep their birthday parties a secret.
People want birthday parties where they can never have.

Birthday also comes with lots of problems.
You not only get 1 yr older,
you also get 1 more problem added on the list.
Yes, you may be given 3 wishes,
but do you actually get them before the next birthday?
If not, it will be like the same wishes every yr.

Birthdays can also be a day where friends come together.
But mind that,
some friends ONLY talk to you because its ur birthday.
After that day, you never get calls from them anymore.
Since you are the birthday girl,
people will automatically treat you differently.
You feel blessed and grateful.
But what?! Only for 1 day?
Maybe I'm asking too much.
But that is how some people act.

I'm gonna think that,
this year will be no different.
Maybe a little more quiet.
Whatever so, I should feel glad on that day.
Afterall its my birthday..
what to do when your brother decides to go for camp during the weekends?
What to do if you have to work on that day?
Every yr, the situation changes.
But one fact remains.
I'm having my shitty birthday this saturday.

Maybe I should just stay at home.
