I got another confession to make

I hate birthdays. I thought I liked them at one point but I think the truth is I am a birthday grinch.It's not the usual things that I dislike about birthdays. I like the presents (ofcourse) and I like that I am getting older - I think that people are like wines, they get better with age. I think it's the expectation that gets me.I hate the expectation of having a party or getting involved or seeing people and trying to force contentment on yourself. I hate that.I am excessively happy that I am now 24 years old. It sounds better, people might start taking me more seriously and not looking down on me when I tell them my age. But then again, who knows?Basically I wont be having a birthday party for a very long time I don't think. I haven't had one since I was 19 and I know now why.May is a busy month, so if it is your birthday soon or it's already been and gone recently, have a happy day and see the people you love and who are close to you!Image: emma.c
