On People Who Take Advantage of the Christmas Season

Christmas is a season of joy, hope and love. It is the time of giving. But it irritates me when numerous "beggars" ring your bell and expect to get something. Even if how nice you try talk to them, they do not stop! They even have the guts to bad mouth you and stuff.

God, they are capable of earning! It does not mean just because it is Christmas they can do that. It does not mean that I suddenly earn a gazillion bucks since its the yuletide season and that I have something to spare them. I am not being greedy, it would be okay to give to the mailman, garbage man, recycle boy, waterman delivery dude... but random people? Gosh.

Wish List

I usually do not have a wish list. Maybe because I do not want anything in particular. If ever I do want something, when I ponder if I will get it, I end up not getting it due to multiple circumstances such as I do not really need it.

But lo and behold, my very first item:



Tokyo Flash

Would someone be my Santa for this year?

On Wishes

A wish is a desire... a longing for a specific thing. Earlier this morning there was a meteor shower. I made tons of wishes on the falling stars. One of those wishes was for us to win our game today.

We were surprisingly ahead by the end of the first quarter. Sadly, basketball is not composed of one quarter. By halftime we were double digits behind. But, I did not stop fighting. We made a run and by the end of three quarters we were only behind by 3! Then again, lack of training and resistance took its tool. They killed us in transition offense.

Even if I make countless wishes upon falling stars... it would never be enough if not everyone would exert 110%+ effort.

So do wishes come true?

Kalungkutan

Nakakaasar kung matagal kang pagbuksan ng pintuan. Tipong wala ka pa sa tapat ng iyong bahay nagsimula ka ng bumisina ngunit walang epekto. Kinailangan parin magantay ng siyam siyam bago kang pagbuksan. Tapos malamanlaman mo lang na tulog na ang katulong na 10! Ang sarap ng buhay ya, pabunjing bunjing lamang.

Pero ito talaga ang hindi masaya... ang umuwi sa bahay na walang laman. Napakatahimik. Walang sumalubong. Madilim. Ni ilaw sa itaas walang nakabukas.

I don't wanna be alone!
