even though the weather contradicts it, nothing can stop the spirit of christmas from being felt by christmas believers.
as the song goes, ‘tis the season to be jolly… and so i say ‘tis the season to be giving and wise in spending too… the former i’m good at and the latter i might still need a little improvement at.
eversince, i have always been fond of shopping and buying gifts (aka pasalubong) not only in christmas but also everytime when i’m on travel. and believe it or not, i enjoy buying gifts for others than for myself. even on a tight budget, i can always get away with buying the cheapest yet functional gifts.
this christmas is no different from the rest. as early as late october, i’ve already started planning, conceptualizing and even buying gifts. and so the other week, i was able to put everything into writing and viola!—my christmas list. i’m almost 50% done with the shopping; only a few more things to buy before i go home for a well-deserved christmas vacation. and if there is additional budget, probably more people to add on the list… wishfully.
shopping, shopping, shopping!
too bad, my name is on the end of the list.
tsk. tsk.
