Happy returns-every year !

When i was a kid i couldnt sleep for three reasons-
1.If i hadnt done my assignments properly for the next day's classes
2.If i had to wake up early to go on some trip
3.If its my birthday tomorrow.
Lets now talk about the 3rd reason in detail(yes i started taking my textbook reading quite seriously):-
The cake cutting ceremony would take place in my garden or in the living room if the monsoons arrived on time..Anywhere was ok with me..I get to be the star of the evening anyway :D

It was always a chocolate cake for me before butterscotch stole my moms heart :D then she inflicted it upon me..But now iam back to chocolate.
Talking about cakes.,I secretly eat sponge cakes..and yes anyday i prefer them over pastries but since thats not acceptable to many of my friends,on my birthdays-Pastry it is..They started getting the cakes themselves..so its not like i get to complain about compromising! And what flavor stopped bothering me as cakes apparently are not for eating(slurrp..!)but for rubbing over the face!
A chocolate facepack..get that ?

My birthday table would classically consist of a Cake(the progressive shapes were-Rectangle:Square:Circle:MickeyMouse:Heart:Circle),a tray full of toffees..Balloons overhead filled with colorful thermo balls and they harldy would burst on the exact moment of the cake cutting and birthday song starting..still i would automatically get startled when that happened ;0
Party caps,Snow sprays,Magic candles came in for the later birthdays.

The gifts started changing too..It was mostly enveloped money given by auntys and uncles when i was really small..then came the teddybears and other stuffed toys.
Now its uber costly stuff that i dont want cos they hardly match with my taste..And nobody gives me a greeting card(with handwritten/drawn messages inside) but yes i still get e-cards !
Now its the buzz,the midnight phone calls and unexpected visits that keep me from sleeping and the kiddish excitement is not the only reason now that was there when i was a..kid..

anyhoooooo..the excitement doesnt die even if its your 12th birthday or 22nd ! Its still your day !
YAYYYYYY its my birthday tomorrow :D
