I like birthdays very much. I often have great birthday celebrations. The best birthday I've ever had was when I invited my friends, classmates and neighbors to my house for my birthday party, and we played all day! The worst birthday I've ever had was when I had no party, no cake, and no gifts. The best present I have ever given was a watch. It cost me three hundred NT dollars. I would like to have a notebook computer for my next birthday. I think everyone should have a holiday from school or work on their birthday. Birthdays are very important to people.
