What would you like for your birthday, Miss Edna? A boyfriend?
Oh, wait, NVM, you told me in your PM that you're bit of an aroace. Sorry.
Ah, worry not. There's nothing to forgive.
You're not the first nor the last person who'd asked me that question.
What I would want for my birthday, hmm..?
I'm mainly content with what I have now and would eventually attain other things.
Anything special and hard to attain my myself...
Perhaps something
radically new for me. Or an excuse to do something just as radically new.
Like the how I got my phone.
Including but not limited to first times experiences and positive permanent lifelong changes.
Some of which would very likely consists of responsibilities -- like how to take care of my phone and regulate my screen time.
Anything else is just fancy wanting or very circumstantial.
My family is willing to pinch in for a bike.
So I don't have to walk to work and back home after doing that for basically years.
This also means learning when and when not to use it, how and how not to use it.
I plan to learn how to cook sinigang from scratch on my own.
Complete with going to the local market before dawn and at least over an hour worth of prepping and cooking.
It was perfect timing too -- at Sunday morning when I'm on my day off.
