The Birthday Entry

Feb 03, 2006 17:53

Here it comes... well... I haven't talked about it earlier, because there isn't much to talk about.
My birthday was kinda disappointing and I was in a mood all day long, was it the day before & still kinda am in it...

I think it's mostly because of my presents.
Or should I say my present ?? Yes, singular.

But let me start at the beginning.
A week before my birthday my brother asked me what I want for my birthday.
I told him he should check my amazon wishlist, always a good thing to go there.
He told me he doesn't have the link anymore, so I took a look at it & told him that he could get me Charlie & the chocolate factory on Dvd.

So far, so good.
a few days later my computer started to act up.
Nothing major, sometimes it was just really slow & I thought I might need more RAM.
So I told my brother he should go look for it, buy it & I'll give him the money after he'd bought it.
He told me he'd do it, no problem at all.
And (!!) that this won't be my birthday present, because he thinks it'll be a stupid present, I agreed. Hey, it's only a part for my pc. it's not like I could do anything with that.
Then he added that he'd probably give me parts of it as present ... ... translation : I don't have to give him the full price back.
Fine with me.

So ... then it's monday.
A Day before my birthday.
He's bought that damn thing ... and guess what he tells me.
It's my birthday present.
From my mum & my sister aswell.

Great, really great, thanks.
Why did you tell me otherwise in the beginning when you didn't even mean it ??
Yes, I was disappointed & still am... but I hoped that I might get something else too, so that it won't be as disappoiting as it was.
and yes, I got something small too, from my mum... a birthday card with some money in it.
Wow, how inventive.

I was really looking forward to this, I had absolutely no idea what they'd get me.
And then... well... they got me something I told them about just a few days before my birthday, something they promised me wouldn't be my present.
Can you see why I'm disappointed ??
Yes, I've saved some money that way, but still...

Do you know what's the best present I got this year ??
A card.
It's as simple as that.
A birthday card, made by sweet
Shaya
What's so special about it ?
Well, probably nothing.
Take a look at it yourself --- > Picture of the Card
Everytime I look at it, I have to smile, because... just look at it.
Who could resist that gorgeous smile & ... not smile ?? ;)

I don't need anything special or expensive.
But a sign that you care for me. A sign that you thought about what you get me.
and computer parts I told you about... just a few days ago... clearly aren't such a sign.
Sure, they meant it good & all, but it didn't help preventing me from falling in dark hole and feeling kinda sad and... well... I don't know.

I'm in a weird mood at the moment, I'll get over it, just gimme a few days

I haven't worked on my icon100 subject anymore either, because I just wasn't in the mood for it.
I have the feeling I won't make it in time... but I have this feeling since I got approved... and I still have almost 8 weeks for those.
So ... I probably WILL make it in time, but my icon muse hates me anyways & tells me otherwise *lol* ;)

Later today I'll meet Maren, she'll come by around 8pm, will give me a present & then we'll see what we'll do.
I'm not sure about it yet, but it could be that Miriam will be there too.

Tomorrow cerri44 and subtle__sarcasm will visit me.
Even if my mood is kinda strange at the moment, I won't let it ruin my not party *loool*

Special thanks to
Shaya,
Casey and
Mata, you guys know why ;)
and thanks to everyone who made a birthday post for me

You guys clearly are the best ! :]

Oh ... and Shaya ??
I bought it ! ;)

friends, brothers, birthdays
