Of birthdays and August

August is supposed to be a special month to me or at the very least August 7th as I was born on this date.

I didnt remembered how i felt on my brithdays when i was a kid but from those old pictures i have, i gathered that i was a very blessed kid showered with birthdays parties organised by parents and presents from the guests.

Fast forward to college days, i still receive an abundance of birthday greetings from loved ones, friends, near or far which makes me feels special although celebration is already rare. It's a surprise that how some people still remembers your birthday and wishes you year after year without fail.

I, for one is a fail case in remembering others' birthday. Hubby is slightly worse than me. He thinks birthday is just another day. :-S

This year, there isn't any celebration for me except for some small treats here and there from my sistas. *sob sob* I hope next year, it will be a better birthday for me!

  1. Cute cupcakes that you have received for your birthday :) glad you enjoyed your birthday.

    In Holland, people love to remember birthdays. The birthday calendar is a staple in Dutch households. I don't have a birthday calendar but I do have a birthday diary to remember birthdays.

  2. Ahhh...interesting to know that Dutch have birthday calendar uh as house deco?

    The cakes are from front left, choc-tiramisu-cheesecake. Looks yummy but tastewise quite ordinary, lacks d WOW factor. :-p
