Longest Answer... Ever

This is the longest answer i have ever submitted into Yahoo!Answers...
It was so long they told me to shorten it ^_^ LOL

The Question was something like "What was your most memorable birthday?" in celebration of Yahoo!Answers' 6th birthday. Some ppl i know tried to be clever, like saying that they don't have any, but i think i just babbled on and on with whatever came to mind, even though it was all true.
i fail... i wrote so much, but i think the real answer is that, when i think about my birthdays, what i remember most are each of the memories i've had in the past 4 years of how i fell every year and twist my ankle -_-# i feel so weak each time it pisses me off, but at least it gives me a reason to carry a cane everywhere i go. i just hate trying to keep an ice pack against my ankle every year for the first few hours after i hurt myself, then attempting to get home... on a bus...

here's my submitted answer...:

Your Answer:
"Wow, 6 years is a long time. Happy Birthday Yahoo! Answers :) ! Hope your birthday is as memorable as all these experiences that everyone has shared :D

"My most memorable birthday isn't the most major or epic birthday anyone could have, nor did it involve the worst experience I've ever had. This just happens to be the birthday I think about when anyone asks me about my birthday experiences, out of all the 16 birthdays I've had so far (and soon to be 17 in a month).

"My best, but not last, birthday was on Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday & holiday, so we had a Monday off from school to celebrate my birthday (^_^). Since I was in my first year of middle school, and I've already made a couple of new friends but still kept in touch with some old ones from elementary school, I thought it'd be nice to hang out with my middle school pals while having a reunion with the friends that I haven't seen in half a year, even though I used to see some of them almost everyday for six years since kindergarten.

"First, we met up at Jack-in-the-Box (cuz it was close to our next destination). As the guests walked in, everyone had a chance to catch up with one another on what was up since graduation (except for my two newer friends and my cousin, who I tried my best to introduce to everyone else in the least awkward way I could). After eating a burger or two for lunch, and opening the gifts (which I mostly still keep; I just couldn't bear to throw any of it away), we headed to the ice skating rink.

"Ice skating was one of my favorite things to do at that time, and that birthday somehow made ice skating memories all the more special to me. Some of us have never skated before, so I did my best (or at least I think I did...) to help them learn enough until they wouldn't need the wall too much anymore. Others, of course, are more experienced in skating and someone even tried to teach us how to skate backwards ^_^

"I remember quite well that the weather wasn't bad, so you still see kids playing in the playground just outside the indoor rink, and my parents sat to the side outside the rink, waiting with a thermos or two of hot chocolate and a stack of cups for anyone who needed a break. I even remember very coincidentally finding another friend of mine from elementary school, but it was too awkward for us to say much to each other. After a while, as I attempted to glide on the ice alone with as little effort as possible, someone announced from seemingly hidden speakers a small list of people, one of which was me, who were celebrating their birthday that day at the rink. Imagine the faces my friends and I made when we heard my name come out of those speakers! XD

"When we finally got together one more time towards the end, my dad took a picture of the entire group (without the parents, of course). I stood out the most in front, but i was crouching down a little too low in an attempt to ensure that the faces behind me show up while those very people behind me supported me from the back and held my arms up so that I wouldn't fall in the duration of the photo session. I guess I did fall for real once the pictures were taken. Once the pictures were printed, I felt kinda bad, yet thankful, for the people who carried my weight when I realized that I didn't need to lower myself after all. Within the week, my parents helped me distribute those pictures to anyone who appeared in it, and maybe even to those who couldn't make it, so that the memories would last.

"Even I still keep that picture and one we took at Jack-in-the-Box above my bed, where i look at it and reminisce every time i just happen to idly lay back on my bed and look up at it.That was the last time I properly had a party with so many school friends, because I never made many very strong connections with anyone after that and I gradually lost contact and chatted less with the friends I've somehow separated from since elementary school... I guess. That was also the very last birthday before some sort of bad luck took over me into somehow making me twist an ankle around the time that my birthday arrives (always within the month of January).

"I stopped making the effort to invite friends to celebrate my birthday with me by my 13th birthday, probably because I thought it would be cool to copy Bella from Stephanie Meyer's Twilight. So I never really had many birthday parties other than with family, and I didn't really like those because I knew that my parents will combine my birthday with my sister's when we celebrate with the extended family, and that there will always be that possibility that I'd fall again and mostly twist my ankle, just like I have for the last four birthdays (strange... >_>)

"I probably wouldn't celebrate my birthday very grandly until I turn 18, when my mother plans to rent out a large... room? dance floor? and hire a DJ for it... At least I have a year and a month to mull over that idea :)
