Today's my friend's birthday. I thank my stars I remembered just in time to call her and give a pretty good excuse for not wishing her at midnight.
As I asked her what she's demanding for her special day this time around, I questioned as to why people have to give you something for completing another year of your life. Have you done any favour to them by spreading the light of your benign presence on this earth? Or is your completing another year a matter of historical importance? Shouldn't you be the one gifting stuff to other people for tolerating you for as long?
Either way, as long as you get a car or a date with your favorite star, yes, your birth is a pretty darn cool thing to happen to mankind!

This yr i asked my dad can i have a new car or a new Thinkpad, and guess what he gifted me a Key-Ring and a CD-ROM, and made this remarkable statement "I really wanted to but i thought you will buy these thing on your own", i felt like shit, but later that night at my party he gave me Rs 5 lakh cheque, and i was overjoyed, but i never did bought anythin, with in a yr or two i will buy them on my own ;) and now with a few pre-placement offers under my belt i m sure i will...
That was the most memorable bday moment i ever had with my father...
PS: Sorry, i think i had blogged my story into your blog, i m sure you dont mind
