I think birthday celebrations are pointless, once you get over the age of 25; simply because, if people are totally honest, nobody really wants to be over 25, do they? The same goes for celebrating New Year's eve. I'd prefer it if I was able to go back a year, rather than start a new one.

I did that for most of the day. In fact, most of every day. 
My son Jack had his 18th last month. He awoke to a banner across the hall & some happy Birthday balloons. We brought him a white gold ring & I even went all the way to the shops & got him a cake. I then had to go all the way to another shop to buy candles for it. I then painstakingly made his favourite dinner of mexican. I lit the candles & jack blew them out & spat all over the cake. I never wanted any after that. Then my eldest son Kyle took him to the pub & when I asked if I could come I was told NO!!!!
Selfish or what.

On New Year people celebrate hard and dance and sing and hug everyone, and then spend the rest of the year moaning about how times just whizzing by and what have I done with my life and where's it all gone!
People are strange aren't they!
Much the same with birthdays of course.
