On February 03, 1993. At exactly 4:25 AM, a mother gave birth to a baby boy and that baby boy was me, of course. Yes, you’re right; it was the most important day of my life, my birthday. Just last February 03, 2007, I celebrate my birthday and the first one to greet me a happy birthday was my thoughtful and loving mother, one of my important people in my life. It happened when my mother woke me up because I had slept in our sofa and that's it, I woke up right away and went upstairs but before I went directly to upstairs, my mother hold my hand and heartily said to me happy birthday. I was so touch when I heard of those words from my mother because she really remembers my birthday and I am already happy for that. I do not care if people say that I can be a happy in just a small thing, and that is me the real me and people don't care about it. My classmates greet me also, they said that they had a countdown of my birthday at midnight of February 02, 2007 and it was held in our school during the overnight activity. Actually, all students were allowed to joined that said activity but I was not able to with my classmates because I had overslept and when I woke up, it is already 9:00 o'clock and the call time of that activity was 8:00 o'clock so that means I can no more enter the campus. So I just decided not to go. I just wrote entries for our blog project/activity. Another day had passed but day another also came. It was the day I lived in this world. But I woke up early because I had make-up class of that day. When I was almost in the gate of our campus, a two girls greet me a happy birthday actually those girls are my classmates. Some of my classmates were in the guard house and they greet me also. My classmates were also asking why I was not able to attend in the overnight activity. I just simply reply to them that I had overslept. After that, no more questions I heard from my classmates. But what really made me touch was when my classmates sang a birthday song for me; actually, they did not just know that I want to cry of what they did for me. I went home straight so I could rest. My family and I went to SM to have some fun there in my most important day of my life. That is how we celebrate my birthday and I really had fun in my birthday.
During birthday, we always expect for a gift and mostly, we want a gift that contains what we like to have but for me, to receive a gift is not what I want during my birthday. All I want is just a greeting that comes from the heart. I know it is unbelievable but I am not kidding, all I want is just a simple greeting. For me, greeting means a lot than any material. I am already contented and happy that the people around me and the people I love greet me a simple greeting, happy birthday.
