I have been going to many birthday celebrations lately and it occurs to me that there's a really strange trend that is going on in this world... At every one of these birthday parties, the birthday person ends up having to buy everyone drinks. The is a concept I could NEVER understand... Why should the birthday girl / boy foot the bill? Is this suppose to be their big day? Wouldn't it make more sense if their friends were to give them a treat on this special day instead?

Some times , when I celebrate my birthday, I got present from my aunt, and she invited me to come to his house and celebrateit. She cook noodle , my favourite food and make other thing that I like. And she gave me present. I really love her. And some times, I got present from my sister and she bought every thing I want to celebrate my birthday, not my money. I really love them..

I don't understand that too why the celebrant need to pay for everything. It's supposed his/her birthday, friends must treat her. But i think some friends are wasn't nice. Everytime my birthday i always pay for food and drinks.Very wrong idea maybe we need to change that concept.happy myloting!
