With my 23rd birthday right around the corner, I thought this article would be a perfect fit for my "birthday week". I love birthdays and everything that comes with them, whether it be my birthday or someone else's birthday. From cake, to presents, to the special phone calls I recieve on my birthday, I love every moment of it, because it gives me an excuse to spend time with people I care about (and who actually care about me) and celebrate a milestone in life. Another year older, but deffently anoter year wiser with multiple lessons learned.

1. All of the attention is on me.

2. Cake.

3. Having the week to celebrate.

4. Or even the month to celebrate.

5. Getting balloons.

6. Getting presents.

7. Seeing my friends and family.

8. Receiving so much love from everyone.

9. Getting Birthday texts/calls all day.

10. Using the "it's MY Birthday" line to get what I want (most of the time).

11. Having a special dinner.

12. Going to a Birthday brunch.

13. Feeling another year wiser (maybe).

14. Wearing birthday hats.

15. What feelings like endless partying.

16. Picking out a special outfit.

17. Having a party at work.

18. When people sing Happy Birthday to me.

19. Everyone seems to be excited for me.

20. When your significant other partakes in the party.

21. Getting tons of surprises.

22. Everyone is nice to me.

23. Making tons of memories.
