Happy birthday? We'll see.
My birthday is exactly one month from now - April 29th. Every year since I can remember, I've always made a big deal about it. I've always been really big into having a party and a cake, and I've always counted down the days. I like to throw other people parties too. My mom's birthday, my sister's, grandma's, cousin's...I always make sure they have a celebration. I work really hard at it sometimes. I feel like my efforts aren't appreciated though. Sometimes I think that I'm the only one who really cares about making birthdays and holidays special. I feel like I have to extract acknowledgment out of my family when my birthday comes around anymore. Yeah, I'm getting older...but why should that matter? I always make a big deal for them. So this year, I'm not going to say anything. I'm not going to count down the days. I'm not going to help plan a party. I'm not going to remind anybody. I want to see what happens.
