Birthdays are the worst.
Last year I had such an awful birthday. This year too.
I don't like to receive happy birthday messages, I have to say thanks to a thing I don't care about. I don't feel any special in my birthday. So it is just weird.
But at the same time I feel sad because very few people know when my birthday is. Probably just my parents and syblings.

Today at school, just a colleague of mine remembered. And it was just because I told somedays ago it was today (another colleague was complaining, or just finding an excuse to tell everybody when her birthday was, anouncing her birthday was the day after the exam, and I told mine was on the exam day).

Apart from some other classmates that were around when she came today to wish me happy birthday, no one else knew, no else remembered. I hate to be wished an happy birthday, but I hate either that no one cares about me. It's stupid, but the only thing birthdays make me feel is forgotten and alone.
