Arienne, Norway

My birthday is July 23rd or the 23rd of July, whichever way you say it. Last year for my birthday I had a big party with all my friends and even my family was there for a little while. It was a lot of fun and it was a Hawaiian party so we all had Hawaiian outfits and a lot of lights.

Fred, Canada

My birthday is March 12th 1985 so that would make me 22 years old. And so I would say that my favorite birthday was when I turned 10 years old. Why? Because I felt that I was growing older cause I now had two numbers on my birthday. And so I spent it with all my friends and my parents. It was a very fun time. I felt I was getting older.

Lupe, Mexico

My birthday is May 30th, and this year I'll be turning 24. My favorite birthday by far was my 21st birthday. My best friend planned a surprise party for me and I had never had a surprise party. I had a really, really good time. Besides the fact that I had just become of age so I was able to go to more places because now I was allowed, and I had a really fun time at the birthday party. Later on we went out with all my friends and went to club to go dancing. Had a few drinks because that was the first time I was able to do it legally, so I

would have to say my 21st birthday was by far the best.

Rebecca, Australia

When is my birthday? My birthday is the 26th of April. And what is good about my birthday is generally I have a public holiday before my birthday for Anzac Day and that day on the 25th of April. This year my friend got together, brought me a costume, and went out to the clubs. It was very fun. And that’s what I did for my birthday.

Reky, Indonesia

My birthday is on February. In my home country, when someone has a birthday, they usually throw something stinky to you. So when I was in high school my friend have this basket full of coke, coffee, eggs, and other stinky things, and they throw me with that. I hate it so much!
