BDAYMEME
Perfect timing to do this meme since I just celebrated my birthday. In my family, birthdays are always celebrated. No flashy parties (but there is photo evidence of my extravagant first birthday party. The whole neighbourhood was there and I even got a cake shaped like the numeral one. Spoiled, hor? ), but always a decent meal at home or in a restaurant somewhere if mum mogok. Presents are rare, but I sometimes get lucky (was crazy over Lego and Garfield back then!). Since my brother was away in boarding school, I could always count on him sending me a birthday card. Birthdays started becoming a ritualistic affair ever since I got hooked with my best buds JM and SK. We would celebrate birthdays for each other and the birthday is a must! So far, we have had many good times together and birthdays are always an excuse to splurge a little.

Who Would You Like To Celebrate Your Birthday With?
With family, naturally. With JM & SK-- to continue our tradition. With KH-- an excuse for him to shower me with affection and material goods, but hey, KH doesn't really need an excuse for that. :P. Friends-- old friends, new friends, bloggers who I hope will become old friends and good friend alike.
How Do You Want To Celebrate Your Birthday?
A delicious, hearty meal. Good company. A mouth-watering cake. A song sung. A wish made. A puff of smoke from extinguished candles. Cam-whoring. Priceless. Which brings me to my birthday that just passed. I must say that it was one of the most memorable birthdays in my life. Shall blog about it in my next post.
Do You Remember Getting Birthday Presents On Your Birthdays?
Refer to the introduction. So the answer is yes. I shall recount some of my past gifts-- my seiko watch from JM & SK that I wear daily; my Powershot A95 that was subsidized by JM & SK; my current handphone, the SGH-X700 that was heavily-subsidized by JM & SK; my first bottle of perfume, Davidoff Cool Water from Mel; "The Hobbit", also from Mel; Will blog about this year's gifts in my next post.
What Are The 3 Things You Want For Your Upcoming Birthday?
I shall not answer this question since I'm the world's hardest person to shop for since I myself can't give you a straight answer. But... there's still that PSP in my wish list, but then would a Nintendo DS be better.... arghhh.
I think everyone else has done this. :P
