It my birthday, yay..! I'm 12 now. I know the day just started but I'm already sad. First, a week before it was some of my friends birthdays and almost everyone in my class remembered. My birthday is one day after winter break. I didn't say anything about it because I wanted to see if my friends remembered my birthday like everyone else's. Nope. Nothing. No "Happy early birthday!", no "Have a great birthday", not even a "Oh cool.". Nothing. So at the end of the day I told them and yet only one person responded, I said it has if I had forgotten too so I wouldn't seem sad. The response was just a turn to look at me an "Oh! It'll be your birthday?" I said "Yeah-", then they said "Okay" and went back to doing what they where doing. Now it's the first day of winter break. It's my birthday. My family always remembers my birthday and treat me with extra kindness on that day, especially my little brother. But not this year. I woke up, got up to look around, and saw my brother starring at me. Then he told me he saw a coloring book with crayons and was tapping me to wake up earlier so he could ask to use it. So you'd think sense I didn't wake up he just wouldn't use it, right? WRONG. He told me he used it and colored a little bit on one page for no reason. I didn't care much for the book, but the fact that it just got gifted to me from my old teacher and yet, I wasn't the first one to use it made me mad. I asked him to get the book, and told him he should of waited for me to wake up. He rolled his eyes at me, which our mum specifically told him to not do, and went to get the book he showed me where he colored and it was on a page with very eye catching illustrations. Wow, just wow. Then to and insult to injury I woke up with a cold today and a terrible cough. And throughout all of this no one said "Happy" birthday. I don't know what's going to happen for the rest of the day, but after this I'm not very exited. -Bunds I'm not doing this for attention I just wanted to state my feelings somewhere, so you don't have to tell me happy birthday.
