Merry Birthday! Oh wait, I didn't want that, but why ma and pa and friends?
Do you find that you tend to get better gifts on your birthday or at Christmas time (or your religions equivalent to Christmas)? By better gifts, it could be something that you've actually wanted, or something that carries greater monetary value.
I tend to buy my own Christmas gifts for myself (I know it's sad) but I tend to go a bit more extravagantly than my birthday. Perhaps the main driving force is its a gift giving season for pretty much everybody is in the hussle and bussle of getting gifts, and one might feel left out if not in the rush (albeit with added stress of the Christmas rush). Also, I think having a birthday in two months proximity to Christmas generally tends to not be as special in terms of gift giving since sometimes my friends' parents might go, "Oh you want a new video game system? It's expensive dear, so why not double up on it and treat this as BOTH your birthday and xmas present?" I think that really sucks. Mine in August is a pretty nice time, I guess. It has that good "time buffer" so very rarely do my parents used to double up on presents unless it's bloody expensive. Discuss: 1. Do you find that you tend to get better gifts on your birthday or at Christmas time (or your religions equivalent to Christmas)? 2. Do your parents/friends tend to also bunch up your Christmas/holiday gifts and birthday presents? 3. What other holidays or special times (Mother's Day/Father's Day, etc) do you generally get gifts on and how do those compare to your birthday and xmas gifts? Furthermore, avoid discussing "Oh Xmas is all about peace on earth and good will to men and we really don't need gifts nor with birthdays", since well, this is already assumed that you ARE going to get or buy a gift. Jam it back in, in the dark.  - What we all do best - |
