a merry christmas post
i have no choice but to accept that today really is Christmas.. in few hours, the day is finally done.. the 25th has gone and passed just like one of those ordinary days.. and i feel like something's missing..
you know what's missing?!..
while most people were in a festive mood last night, i'm not.. i passed the time by watching Mulawin on tv.. and when midnight finally came, i found myself lying awake, listening to Ryan Cabrera.. greeted my friends (and that somehow made me feel the Christmas spirit, which is a good thing) and as expected, find it hard to sleep.. but my almost-found Christmas feeling disappeared when i woke up..
you know what's missing?!..
as early as 9am, people came in and out of our house.. so i was forced to wake from my slumber.. they all look kinda tired but excited.. like they're receiving something wonderful!.. pft!.. you wish!.. and to my surprise, i didn't give a crap about people coming over our house.. i was feeling so normal that i didn't even bother to change my clothes (coz i was wearing pajamas.. yeah i look funny..hehe).. and i'm walking around like i'm the only person in the house.. but no, i'm not trying to make visitors feel that they're unwelcome because of my sleeping attire look..
you know what's missing?!..
today i watched three movies.. Eve's Christmas, Cheaper than a Dozen, and another one which was about Santa.. unlike many others, my eyes were glued in front of the tv.. i just went out for 30 minutes for the sake of a yearly thing.. as expected, people were all over the streets.. what was really funny, when i passed by Jollibee, their famous Chikenjoy's smell was overwhelming.. hehehe.. its like a call to the kids saying, "mga bata, halika gastusin nyo sa chikenjoy ang mga pera nyo!!".. i was even tempted coz it smells really yummy but of course i went straight home..
you know what's missing?!..
i ate more than half of a so-called Christmas ham.. i wanted to know how much that weighs but the box was thrown already.. i didn't know how much ham i ingested, but i know it's a lot.. hehe.. sarap kasi eh.. was just meaning to eat just a couple of slices.. but i guess i enjoyed so there i go, i almost finished it.. although it may sound like we had a festive table, the ham was the only thing i ate for the whole day..
you know what's missing?!..
one kid came around lunch.. he looks 5 or 6 years old.. not to mention he's really cute and smells good.. anyway, he was given, i think 200 pesos, but refused to accept it coz he said "gifts lang.." in a very polite manner.. i was kinda amazed because kids would normally get anything handed to them (which is only based on what i've seen today).. but of course the money was insisted since we don't do Holiday shopping so there's really no gifts here.. and said thank you without being told to say it.. what i also found nice was when they were about to leave, he stopped to look at the aquarium and say "fish o! fish!".. it may sound common to you but that kid made me smile.. and wish that other kids could be more appreciative.. well, maybe just because some people went here to pick up something as if we're obliged to give it to them.. and leave as soon as they get it.. *sigh* enough already..
you know what's missing?!..
apparently, i've said enough about my day when all that can describe it is "by far, this is the most not-so-Christmas Christmas i've ever had"..
you know what's missing?!
snow..
though i have not seen any..
