[1]I’ve noticed that the world is divided into two camps – those who could care less about their birthdays and the other half, which would be people like me. Being single makes planning ahead really important, because you have to ask yourself, can you deal with spending your birthday alone? (New Years Eve? Maybe. Birthday? Never!) Take responsibility to get the ball rolling, whether it’s a huge party or an intimate dinner for two, which means first and foremost, reminding friends to keep the evening free. If you’re lucky, your loved ones will take the planning from there. If not, don’t be proud to do it yourself. This year, I wanted something small, so I chose Jar [2], an elegant restaurant, and invited a couple of close friends to join me. And then, I reveled in being a princess, and enjoyed my birthday, as a “worry-free” zone.
What are you planning for your birthday?
