Birthdays

Re: Birthdays

I'm not sure what you mean by old-school, even the most desi-est of parents, have birthdays for their children..but those are usually meant for family get togethers...

i had the typical family get together birthday til i was in HS, and after HS, let me just say....birthdays have NOT been pleasant for me, haven't been for 8 years now. it used to bother me a lot then, why i could never have nice birthdays like i see others having but i dont' get anything (not talking about gifts here)

But now, at this age, what bothers me is WHY it bothers me. I really wish that i didn't care about celebrating and all that, but I do and it still hurts remembering the past years.
