facebook makes remembering peoples birthdays really easy. 
all you have to do is to log into your account and it says. 
hi- today is so and so's birthday. 
so easy right?
the problem with me is that i am not a fb stalker. 
i do not go on fb to waste time or go through peoples pictures. 
not that i think there is anything wrong with that (to an extent of course). 
anyway. i was gone this year on my birthday. 
the first birthday i have ever spent away from my family. 
it was very difficult, but i survived and so did my family and it will be a birthday/christmas 
i will never forget. 
so today, i am looking over my fb wall seeing i haven't really used the internet in 3 weeks and i came across all my birthday messages.
i have a lot of friends on fb, therefore i have a lot of birthday messages too. 
the thing that caught me by surprise is how many different countries wished me a happy birthday this year. 
are you ready for it?
these are all countries that sent me a message on my exact birthday- which happens to be christmas. 
which makes it even more special when people take the time out of their christmas day to remember me. 
so here is goes:

so. there you go. that is all i got. plus a couple of texts, but seeing i was in a different country myself, i didn't really expect anything. they were mostly from the states and england anyway.
