An unforgettable and remarkable birthday celebration was on my 20th birthday. If my memory serves me right, it was 7 months ago. In the morning of my birthday, I made up my mind to celebrate my birthday with my family. But unfortunately, nobody congratulated me with my birthday. I was upset and felt down. After my lessons in the evening, I came back to our house. When I opened the door, suddenly everybody congratulated me with my birthday. There were a bunch of people who were my aunt, uncle, siblings and so on. I jumped over the moon and exited because it was a surprise for me. Everybody presented me a bunch of gifts such as baggies, flowers, a basket of flowers and so on. But the best present for me was my mobile phone. That was given to me by my father. When I saw it, I was thrilled to beat it. It was my dream since I was a child. It was a new version of a mobile phone called an iPhone. After that, we had a party. The party was wonderful and fantastic. We ate different types of delicious and yummy meals. After that, I was very glad for my relatives and family members. To make a long story short, that was the memorable birthday celebration in my life.
