My long awaiting birthday was finally over 5 days ago. It was a very anticipated day to me for this year there was someone new who would celebrate with me. The special day ended very quickly like a blink of an eye. Nothing particular actually. Wondering why I described in this way?
Someone who is important to me had forgotten about my birthday totally. I do not mean that my birthday is an ultra priority event everyone must know and remember. It was just that she did not mention or smile about it at all. Neither did I probe or express my unhappiness to her. I knew she had tons of work to do, never ending problems to solve but somehow I just felt that it should not be totally wiped out of her memory at all. How can she not know?
Another person asked me what my closest family members are giving me for my presents. I told him NOTHING. He was shocked because he would definitely get presents from them. I remembered I was very sad over this day one year ago. As days go by, I just let go of my unhappiness and stop asking myself why I was not blessed. Sometimes, just a wish could make one happy. It was not present at all.
Luckily, a special person was there to celebrate my birthday. This person had tried his best to put in surprises and time for me. I was glad and felt loved. My bestie and her bf, together with us celebrated my bday one day before hand. An ordinary dinner at a new restaurant warmed my heart. A piece of exquisite cake sitting down with them and my loved one were memorable as we kept taking photos. She was the first person who could not wait to celebrate with me. Thank you to my partner in crime.
Last but not least, my 3 gfs sent me a plate of flowers with a bear sitting in the middle surrounded with flowers and candles to the school. I was overwhelmed as that plate of flowers was very unique and I think not many people would know how to appreciate the arrangement. No matter how the arrangement looked like, it was a piece of remembrance of my special day from my 10++years friends. I showed off to everyone who walked past my table.
