I LOVE celebrating my birthday, especially receiving friends amazing blessings by phone, email, and social media. I’m always completely OVERWHELMED!
I need to get better about writing to all of my Facebook friends on their special days in return. If I missed yours, I apologize, hope it was amazing – I need to “make” more time daily to see which Facebook friends are celebrating.
My friend Jeremy summed it up best –“The best day to have Facebook.. Thanks for the Birthday Wishes…”
One part of receiving the wishes, that I get a charge out of, is to see if and what adjectives my friends use.
I love learning new things, so after seeing all of the adjectives, I asked my coworker Lawrence for a lesson on how to make graphs in Microsoft Excel. So I gathered all of the data and made this from all of the Birthday greetings I received that included adjectives, to have a visual of the breakdown.
I wonder if my friends used “amazing” specifically because they were sending me Birthday wishes and they hear me use it often? AND use other words for different friends??
I vividly recall Good and Great being used the most last year – by a long shot. I’m thrilled to see the use of new colorful adjectives this year!!
What is your favorite adjective?
Happy New Week,
Robyn
Ha! This is a great question…mine is fabulous…I use it A LOT!
Have a *fabulous* day Robyn!!

I must say that I remember you mentioning at one point last year how you had noticed the majority of your facebook birthday greetings included good or great – adjectives that aren’t quite as “colourful”! And I have remembered your comment on that ever since and I am not exaggerating when I say that everyday when I go to make a facebook greeting, send a text or a message of some sort, I refrain from using the standard good or great now! I believe it has such a positive effect when using more exciting adjectives! That’s all b/c your observation :) Have a fantastic day! :)
