Like its your birthday, you expect almost all your loved ones to greet you on your special day , but for some reason they are all quiet and its as if its just a regular day for them. Then because of their action you feel bad you feel depressed you feel forgotten , then before the day ends they will ask you to buy something in the market for the meal that will be prepared tomorrow so you ask your friends to help you buy something then they just tell you i cant i have something else to do, so you go on your own feeling bad because its your birthday and nobody seems to care. Then when you finally got home then its so dark and as you open the lights you will be surprised to see all your friends and family shouting the same thing HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Do you like experiencing those kinds of stuff? hahah honestly i dont but whenever people whom i care the most do it, i just cant help it but to love them more lol

The last time I was surprised when I graduated from college and when I went home my father showed me two tiger looking cats. I believe it was twin. He said they were his gifts for me. But I believe it was adopted by my mother , another stray cats. Those cats was with me for a couple of years, the became the most sweet and the most kind of all the cats I have. I have never been surprised like what happened to you. I guess it will never happen to me as my family is not that kind.

Yes, when we are surprised by our family it makes us feel we are well appreciated and they value us a lot. I bet even there is nothing to be celebrated on that day, my mother will still adopt that two tiger looking cats

I came across some of my topics and saw that i failed to answer back to this comment of ours hahaha. How are the kittens? are they looking even better and still as adorable as they are weeks ago? The kitten that i saw in the market is feeling good in our house already jumping all the time playing with his older brother hahaha.Im thinking maybe i should find them both a mate so that i will have lots of kittens all over the house when they bear kittens hahaha.Happy mylotting

Im trying to be as nice as i can to every friend i know although sometimes my kindness is being taken advantage and in the process im betrayed and deserted. But i know that God knows what im doing and those people who done me wrong will be in a punish or meet their karma sooner or later. All i have to do right now is enjoy life and everything that it has to offer. And make those special people in my life feel good and make them feel loved by me.Im also blessed with lots of friends like you my online friends who are always supporting me with every topic that i post and im hoping that you will have lots of happiness and blessing in your life too. Godbless and good day

I feel bad that you never experienced it yet my friend maybe your loved ones are pretty much busy most of the time, but let me share to you my experience a week ago. The story that i just posted is bout my story indeed where in my friends and my family surprised me that much. Actually i was expecting that they will be cooking something for me but its not to my expectation that they will be gathering together and plan bout something like acting as if they dont know its my special day and then when im all down because of my wrong thinking i will see them all together telling me the same thing HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Felt so good and after experiencing this wonderful feeling im thinking bout planning a similar event to a special friend of mine whose not able to walk anymore because of her condition. Thanks for the time my friend

Actually its not my imagination, i just recently experienced this event last week hahaha. At first i was really irritated and well sad as well because no one seems to remember although some part of me is telling me that they might just be cooking up something else. But when i called my friends to help me buy some groceries and they all said they cant because their busy that blew my day lol i was really irritated although i never told them bout how i feel that time i just bought the said items alone feelin bad because its supposed to be my birthday but no one seems to care so when i got home and found out bout the surprise i was so happy... i never thought they will go and prepare something like that just to celebrate my special day hehe. You should try it with some loved ones sometime it really works

that is really nice to hear that it happened in your real life.I can understand your excitement about that surprise.But your intuition didn't fail and that is great that you have good judgement towards your friends and family.
Life could be beautiful if we can face some sweet surprises like this.Let me try it myself with my loved ones.

You should its going to make you even closer to this member of your family. Or maybe you can also try it with your closest friend to you . Actually im also thinking bout doing the same thing to one of my bestfriends. Its more like my acknowledgment to the loyal friendship and love that they gave me for sometime.And in return i will make sure that they will be feeling the same towards me as well. Its more like being a small angel for them once in a while.

I could not avoid it even i dislike it not. Some just have the mind to impress other and some are sweet to do it. So whatever comes I just welcome it with all my heart. As long as I felt happy and it makes those people around me happy. Then no problem with or without surprises it just alright..:)

Believe me i also understand what you mean, even i dont like the thought of being surprised its just that we cant help it but to appreciate the effort that our loved ones are doing to us like when they do those sweet things for us .Sometimes i dont like being surprised but when the prepare just bout anything for me to be surprised then i just cant help it but to say thank you and wanting to do the same for them as well. Right now im included in a plan to surprise a good friend of mine who will be celebrating his birthday this coming month too . Thanks for replying and have a great day ahead of you my friend

I've never had a surprise party. I don't really like surprises. I like to know what is going to happen so that I can be prepared.

But come to think of it if you know what will happen then it wont be a surprise anymore. I believe suprise parties are meant to make someone emotionally happy in the highest term that is. Because you wont be expecting anything at all until the lights are on and until they all shout together happy birthday! It gives us the feeling of being loved and being satisfied with the kind of people that we have around us.I do believe that on our part we should also try our best to appreciate our loved ones when they try to surprise us imagine the planning and the time that they sarificed just to make us happy. Life is good and life has so much more to offer lets all enjoy what we have and what we will have in the future. Thank you for commenting and have a great day

Hi yes of course; I mean good surprises. Like today I received a surprise from the training center telling me to report for a job but only for three months. Well it's a surprise because the training center becomes a call center. Isn't it a surprise?

Thats really a good surprise yes there are alot of good surprise that we can receive every now and then. Like in your case the job that you got even though its just for three months its still a good news. Nowadays life is pretty hard thats why finding a job is really hard so when you find one and then they call you up thats really indeed a good surprise i wish you all the best and im hoping that you will be doing good in this job that you will be having. And may you have alot more of those good suprise in your life as well. Thanks for replying and have a great day!Hope to hear more of your thoughts in my coming topics as well

Awwwww that sounds really sweet of them. To answer your question, YES!!! I do love surprises. How I wish my family and friends would do something for me like what yours did. My birthday is actually fast approaching. But right now, I'm not expecting anything because I might just end up getting disappointed like what happened last year.

Cool! im glad that alot of people likes surprises as well specially those unexpected ones . It gives us a different feeling its so warm and so sweet of these people to make us smile at our special day. Actually when i was surprised i almost cried im trying to control myself because i thought they already forgot bout my special day all the while they are just planning for the big surprise. Thats why when i saw them and hear them say HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! i just cant control myself anymore i was so happy and im hoping most people will be happy as well like me when they are surprised like that. Sometimes we need to appreciate all the small things that our loved ones are giving us. Thank you for your time and comment hope to see more of your work in these coming days too

I love surprises, specifically the pleasant ones. I celebraed my 26th birthday last Saturday. I did not get any material gifts but I was surprised to see a payment transaction I have received from an online money making activity I was not expecting money from. I was really surprised. I was not that confident that the program is legitimate but still participated because it was free to join at. Luckily, it really does pay and I got paid on my birthday. My 2-year old niece also sang the Happy Birthday song for me, which was also a surprise considering how shy she is.

Wow thats so sweet! i mean when its my birtday i just cant help it but to be so emotional whether people do surprise me or not if they dont greet me in my special day i kinda feel bad. And every person who greets me in my special day is a part of the reason why i love surprises all the time. Makes me smile makes my heart skip a beat and feels like im in heaven when im surprised.I wish these kinds of feeling will be felt by most of the people that will be surprised by their loved ones. If we can just appreciate all the small things that our loved ones are doing the world will be a better world to live in. Thank you for your time and effort im hoping to see more of your work pretty soon with my next topics too

I agree with you there are times that bad surprise come to us like a speeding bullet and im with you as well i dont like those kinds of surprise at all hahaha. But the kind of surprise that i like the most is that when our family and friends gather together and make us feel good then thats what i like the most. I like the fact that they give us their time to make us feel good and im thinking bout giving some of my time to make others feel good too. Its more like being an instrument of someones happiness. You will feel so light when you know you made someone happy and satisfied.Thanks for commenting and have a great day

See ;) surprise can have alot of good effects on us all, like even if we are having the worst kind of day when someone surprise us with something its pretty sure that we will be smiling unless its a ba surprise instead. People like us needs some enjoyment every now and then . And thats what the element of suprise is, to make the unsuspecting victim happy in the end with whatever it is that we have for them.In your case your dad bought you a bike im sure you almost jumping in joy when you received it

I love surprises, I felt I'm very important and special to them. And as if I felt that I am very lovable and good person that they gave me a surprise party..
And that's why, I also love to give surprises to my friends and loved ones during their special day.

Good thing you like surprises as well hey i think surprises are really meant for us to be happy and satisfied with whatever it is that our loved ones will be giving us. But more importantly it is their time thats what we should be thankful for. Because they gave us their time and attention just to plan for that said surprise if ever that you will be able to experience being surprised dont forget to thank them and if you can return the favor pretty soon too .Its never tiring to make someone feel good all the time. And thank you for participating in my topic hope to see more of your work pretty soon

Surprises?
This is the only thing that I wanna do. Making out or literally planning this for a remarkable, unforgettable, and worth while surprise... ^_^
I'm more like setsuna here, not much of a good appreciator or should i say has a late reaction reflex... hehehe...
But hey, making surprises is way much better than being the one surprised... ^_^

Well i understand you sentiment as well but dont you think that asking for a car is a lil bit too much? I mean unless your really wealthy and all asking for a car in your birthday well is pretty much expensive. But then again there are alot of cars nowadays that are not that expensive at all maybe they can settle for those kinds of car just to make you feel special and for you to appreciate their surprise for you even more. Whatever it is that they will be giving you i think what really matters is that they remember the thought of celebrating your special day with them to share lots of good memories together. Thanks for joining and have a great day!

Thats just so sweet of you, i mean even if people dont surprise you the fact that your trying your best to suprise other people in return is a good thing already. I can tell with what you just said that you have a good heart. Only people with good heart would want to serve and make other people happy even thought they themselves dont have people to make them happy in return. Im not saying you dont have friends what i mean is your friends are not making an effort to make you feel that good, like by surprising you, but i know even if your not being surprised by your friends i can tell that your a good person and thats all that i need to know from you

that is no longer fun if you expect. in my family if its your birthday then you are the one to buy food. though some give cake or gifts. my wife always give something cute but cool as a gift and i can never top the gifts she is giving. that is the kind of surprise i am happy about. she never fails to amaze me during my birthday. so far no one has surprised me with a party and i know that will never happened har har har.

Well if you happen to know the surprise then it wont be a surprise anymore lol .But the thing is whenever we receive surprise gift or whatsoever we just cant help it but to feel good bout it.

Thank you for giving your time and effort in this topic of mine hoping to see and hear more of your thoughts petty soon. Good day

Yeah i agree with you almost everybody likes surprises but some people tend to be irritated by the thought or the process that you have to experience before the surprise itself. Thats just so sweet of you to surprise your mother that much im sure she was so happy just knowing the fact that you really prepared for something like that . And the thought is what counts the most no matter how simple or extravagant the food are for as long as people are there to celebrate and remember a very important event then the surprise will be very much appreciated. Thanks for commenting and enjoy your day my friend

Believe me my friend some people dont like the thought of having surprises planned for them. It makes them irritated to feel that some people seem to forgot their special day just browse the response in this topic of mine there are still some who says they dont like the thought itself . Although the motive is good and it just aims on making each and everybody happy sometimes people have their own set of liking. Maybe this one is not one of their liking thats why. But if you ask me the feeling of being surprised in a good way is realy priceless. Thank you for sharing your view and im hoping to hear more from you these coming days. Happy mylotting!

Yeah i like it alot too the thought of giving gifts and receiving some as well is really good specially if it came from someone you really care that will mean alot to me and to everybody else for that matter. When i receive a surprise party i just cant help it but to feel so good specially thankful for the people who prepared for it , its as if i cant ask for anything else. Its pretty scary at first because i thought that they just forgot about the whole thing but when they say happy birthday then the mood will be lighter and everybody else will be happy. Thanks for commenting and havea great day

I like surprises but I hate that feeling of thinking people have forgotten about you! I also tend to find that the people I know arent very good at keeping secrets so they get overexicted and tell me something about it and therefore the surprise is never as surprising lol!

Hahahaha i know what you mean some people just cant keep a secret a secret lol if you just push them a lil bit more then they will tell you just bout anything that they know. But we share the same feeling my friend i also dont like the feeling of being ignored specially if its my special day. But what can we do? if they are really planning for a surprise party then for sure they need to act convincingly or else it will all fail. In my case they are pretty much more convincing maybe thats why i was led to believe that they forgot about me already hahaha. And im glad that i hear from you again, i mean i like hearing alot of thoughts from my friends here in mylot. Hope to see more of your work pretty soon!
