My birthday is in a few weeks and everyone is bugging me with the question "What do you want for your birthday?" This is giving me a big headache because I　don't know what I want. Other than that, my graduation is 2 weeks after my birthday and they asked me the same question! I don't know what to do! I can't just say I want CASH!!　lol I don't know what I　want or like anymore.

I hate to go all "Miss Manners" on ya but it is poor etiquette to ask for money. As far as asking for anything else it's Ok to say you would love a such-and-such but not in a way that would imply you will be upset or offended if you don't get it.
I sooo wish I had this same problem (there was a time when I really had nothing I really wanted, now the opposite is true)...now there are just too many things that I want! Not that I could tell others exactly what I want, they would be like...
...you can ask for a gift card to a store you like... if you are not sure so that in your own time, you can go and look around and choose your own gift and get something that you do actually like... there's also giftcertificates.com...you can ask for their SuperCertificate which can be "traded" online for a store or stores of your choosing!
