Minho (University Student)
I believe the most important birthdays are those of our parents or elders. In my culture, celebrating the birthdays of parents is a way to show gratitude and respect. It’s a time for families to come together.

Do you think it is important for you to celebrate your birthday?

Aya (High School Student)
Yes, I think it’s important to celebrate my birthday, but I’m not very picky about it. I like spending time with my friends and family, and it’s fun to have a small celebration with them.

Minho (University Student)
I think it’s important to celebrate my birthday because it’s a time to be with friends and family and reflect on the past year. However, I don’t need anything too fancy – a simple dinner is enough for me.

Linh (Office Worker)
Yes, I think celebrating my birthday is important. It’s a chance to reflect on my life, and I enjoy spending time with my close friends and family. It’s a time for them to show they care, and I appreciate it.

Mr. Wong (Retired English Teacher)
While it’s not absolutely necessary to celebrate, I believe birthdays are a good opportunity to be with family and reflect on life. I enjoy celebrating with close friends and family, though it’s not something I feel a strong need to do every year.


What did you do on your birthday when you were young?

As a child, birthdays were simple. My family would have a small celebration with close relatives. We’d have homemade food and a cake, and there would be laughter. It was more about spending time with loved ones than receiving big gifts.
