Today is my birthday, and I plan to celebrate it with my family and friends.

I first cleaned the room, organized the table and chairs, and then prepared what I needed for the birthday.

Wǒ qù chāoshì mǎi le dàngāo, yǐnliào hé yìxiē shuǐguǒ.

They brought me gifts and wished me a happy birthday.

The room was full of laughter, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Wǒ bǎ dàngāo fàng zài zhuōzi zhōngjiān, diǎn shàng làzhú.

In the evening, we officially started celebrating.

Dàjiā yìqǐ chàng shēngrì gē, ránhòu wǒ xǔ le yí gè yuànwàng.

I put the cake in the middle of the table and lit the candles.

Everyone sang the birthday song together, and then I made a wish.

Dàngāo yòu tián yòu hǎochī, dàjiā dōu juéde hěn mǎnyì.

After blowing out the candles, we ate the cake together.

The cake was sweet and delicious, and everyone felt satisfied.

Some friends even helped clean the plates and cups.

Wǒ sòng tāmen dào ménkǒu, xīn lǐ juéde hěn wēnnuǎn.

Time passed quickly, and in the evening, my friends left one by one.

Jīntiān de shēngrì ràng wǒ gǎndào xìngfú, yě ràng wǒ gèng jiā zhēnxī jiārén hé péngyou.

I walked them to the door and felt warm inside.
