I know what you mean, Enkil.
My birthday was on July 21st and I barely could give a smile in any photo!
Anyway, like you, they did things that made me laugh and so I did anyhow.
I don't mind birthdays at all, but you see, to tell you the truth, my birthday sometimes falls on fireworks days!!!
In the past my birthday ended up on a day of fireworks for about 5 times already, one beeing last year.
I hope next year that so happens again!
I have to tell you this. When my birthday falls on any display any year, here's what I do:
I wake up in the morning, get a big breakfast and stuff my face! We then head out on a little trip and do family things, we then come back and and have my birthday cake and yes, sing happy birthday! Then, finally, we go out to a fancy restauraunt to eat, and once again, I stuff my face!
Then the final part, we head out to see a magnificent fireworks display in the good old Mondial SAQ! It is the best part of when my birthday is on fireworks, it's what I look foward to the most!
I hope it happens again next year! The beauty of it, is sometimes it falls on my brother's birthday as well! So, if I miss it on mine, sometimes a display ends up on his.
The best display on my birthday was probably the country that played last year, it was Italy, I think. My favorite part was the Italian Finale! After that display, my parents said "Wasn't that a great birthday present?" I said, "indeed!"
As a final note, my cousin and my grandfather's birthday are on the same day, July 30th, and surprise surprise, that was La Ronde fireworks day, what a treat that was! I forgot to mention, my grandmother's birthday is the day after mine, so sometimes that happens there as well.
I love where our birthdays are located, especially mine, right in July, the heart of summer and the climax of the whole competition of the Mondial SAQ!!!!!!
SUMMER RULES AND SO DOES THE MONDIAL SAQ!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope you like my story,
Trav.
