The time that stands out the most when I received money on my birthday was last year,in fact.You see last year was my first ever birthday away from home!Yes,honestly it was.You see I’m in my first year of university in Beijing,and all my other birthdays I was in my hometown with my family,with the exception of this last one in June.So,this last birthday I felt a little bit down to be honest.I have some good new university friends,admittedly,but I felt a little bit awkward celebrating my birthday with them.Anyway,I went out for a meal with them,and paid for a really nice Thai restaurant near to campus–I thought it would be a nice change to have a Thai meal,and recently I’ve been thinking a lot about tropical places and beaches and these kind of“holiday dreams”,so I decided to invite my new group of friends to a Thai meal.It was lovely,and they even had a small traditional band that played music on a little stage as we ate.Anyway,during the meal I received a flurry of text messages on WeChat,from my mother,my auntie,my uncle and some cousins in my hometown,and each one sent me a‘red packet’of money and a really nice greeting for my birthday.I was so pleased because the meal was really expensive,for me anyway,and also it meant I could be a bit more generous and order some more wine,some interesting desserts,and take my friends out for drinks in a cool bar after the meal–as well,of course,as investing in some clothes and other useful things for my university life.So,I felt very touched by the generosity of my family and it really did help me,and enabled me to offer my new friends a special night out.It’s nice to be in a position to be generous like that.I felt really good on several levels,although I did miss my family,and it was my first birthday without them.
