It's sad when people give you gifts you don't like, because it feels like they haven't really bothered to know you well enough to know what you would want. Maybe you can exchange the book for the one you want? If it is a new book, the store should allow this even without the receipt.
I don't know why they didn't get you what you wanted, but it probably was not on purpose. At least they got you some things, so they were trying to make some effort. Maybe they didn't know what you wanted. It can be really hard to figure out what to get as a gift for some people, even though they think it should be obvious. I'm sure you have had trouble figuring out what to get for someone before, and may not have always picked the right thing. Just try to be gracious and appreciate the thought.
Happy Birthday, anyway.
Have you thought about the gifts and the spirit they were given. I have always taught my kids that whatever they are given they should be thankful. Maybe the givers didn't have a lot of extra cash and they thought they were giving you something that you needed, not just what you wanted. Maybe in passing you could thank them and at the same time ask them what made them think of you when they picking out your gift, you might be surprised behind the meaning of the gifts.
Does it really matter what you get. Just be thankful and happy that your friends and family remebered and you're lucky enough to live to be able to spend another birthday with them. Learn to enjoy the simple things in life. When you die you can't take those materiallistic things with you but your memories will live on forever. :O) Cherish every moment with your family and friends don't sweat the petty stuff. :O)
You should be thankful for what you get . some kids get nothing. You sound like no matter what it would have been it would of not been the right thing. Thank god you are here and some one thought about you. alot of kids would of love it.
I don't understand you say "I didn't want ANYTHING I wanted" what do you mean? I guess I was raised to appreciate the things I receive.
Is your name Paris Hilton? Geeze you're spoiled aren't you. If you were my child with that attitude I wouldn't get you anything for your birthdays at all.
happy birthday Ms. I'm not grateful for anything that anyone gets me!
Be grateful, it could be worse...
You sound like the biggest brat ever. Thank God you're not my kid!!!
