twenTEEN'th Birthday

I can figure out myself and letting the world know how irregular I'm at this. My birthday was on 17th of March and I'm almost two weeks late about posting about it on my blog. The last two posts have been very frustrating mentioning my sad life. But things have been going on prrrretty well after that. One thing is that, my mom's not pecking on me lately and it sure feels like heaven. Not that my mom's a bug(hell no!!), but life's been smooth !

I have this unusual thing on each of my birthdays. I cry ! This time it was my brother from whom I was expecting a call all night and I got it in the morning. I cried when I was speaking with him over the phone. I really missed him a lot that moment.


Anyway, away with the sad stuff. Also, I have this unusual habit of noting down the names of people who wished me on my birthday categorically-calls and messages ! Weird na? It's just been an habit and feels nice at the end of the day just by looking at the list reminding me about the number of people who still haven't forgotten me ! 'm sure everybody(especially girls) feel elated when we get a call on our birthday. Girly stuff I guess. It's just the fact that females care about realtionships with others very seriously.



The day was just usual. Went for dinner with parents and two of my cousins. Well, I was kind of thinking that none of my friends from school had called me. KK had called me at 22:30 and Ashwin had sent a msg in the evening. Shivangi(Shivu), Jayni( J Shah), Aishwarya(Aishu), Shiva,, , , none had called. I was feeling bad that theyhad forgotten my b'day.


Vijay(Vj) and Shivu called me two days later. Shivu felt really bad, but she's a sweetheart. she would never lie. I just love her attitude. Others haven't wished me till date. On Sunday, which was 30th of March around 19:00 , Shivu was asking me what I was upto. She asked me whether I was home. I said 'yes' and there wasn't a reply. I must say that I was kind of doubting that they were going to surprise me. So, I cleaned my room and stuff.


I hear the doors of the car close. I shout out 'Shivu?', 'Vj?' . They don't reply. I run downstairs and they have a cake lighted by a single candle kept on the boot of the car. KK and Vj hurry me up and they sing to me on the road. I was surprised. This was the first surprise birthday I've ever got. I felt really nice. Shivu had brought Kiki and Gio(Shivu's adorable poms). Kiki's a black and white pom and Gio is the 4-month old son. Oh god, Gio is just adorable. I would love to have him. I'm sure Shivu would give him to me if I ask which would be totally stopped by the dog and cat hater-Meri Ma.


The thing with my Ma is that, she literally doesn't hate dogs but she thinks it's a real pain to have them being taken care of. She wouldn't trust me one bit because she always says 'You would take care of it for 2 days, the third day I'll be the one running behind it'.


Except that I'm twenteen, I'm really happy.
