Is it a happy birthday??

These days we are easily reminded of our birthdays than it used to be when we were a bit younger. You have people asking you about the venues of the party when you've never really thought of one.
Talking about parties, Did I tell you I never really had one. Even my mum threw a party on her fortieth day. Funny enough I had turned eighteen that same year.
I remember having something that looked like a party when I was 3 years old. Oh boy, you dont call eating mashed yam with egg and drinking coke and muscatella with your cousins, though  in your favourite shirt, a party..not at all.
But hey, since then, my grandma would keep postponing my birthday party. She would ask me to wait till my mum returned. I've grown up thinking birthday parties are better postponed than held.
The last few days,Ive been reminded by a few friends that my birthday is this Thursday. I was born on Wednesday 20th June, 1990
Then I thought to myself, Ive bn counting my ages by years since my third birthday when I had realised there was something like birthdays. The figure keep swelling. Today on my birthday, I wanted to count my ages by achievements; I  had the shock of my life.
I just realised I was barely 3. In fact, one of the remarkable achievements is yet to come next week. I would be awarded a degree in social sciences for a meagre 63.88 percent of cummulative weighted average. So what if I never wake up tomorrow???
Would I be a shock at 3years
Breaking news........my life just begun
If am able to find out what I am today, I would die tomorrow.
....its time to achieve.
Happy birthday to me..
