Still in the spirit of Christmas, I'd like to share with you that this is my favourite time of the year, as a small young. Christmas time, of course, kids do get all the goodies like gifts, presents, carols and candies. Laughter is in the time for the whole month of December.
That was when times were pure and innocent. As I grew up, the feeling faded and that yearly family get-together just never get to go on as a tradition. It's a pity. But as I've aged, it seems like it's become more about the commercialism. Gifts this and gifts that.
That's when the fun of giving at Christmas started to leave for me. Not to mention for the next several years out of college I was broke and couldn't meet the expectations of giving to some people.
Thinking back, I could have made gifts with my own hands to give it to some closer buddies or to the college girl I was fond of. Things could be totally different if I had done that.By that it doesn't mean you won't spend any money, but you might spend a lot less and you put your time and heart in it.
On ending, I hope that we can take back Christmas to make it about true giving rather than superficial giving.
I wish you all Happy New Yearin 2010~!

Merry Christmas
Less than 2 days to Christmas! It means we are at the end of the year. Hello 2010. So what does this Christmas mean to you? To me, it's nothing more than a highly glamourous mega shopping event that builds up in every late November. It's way too commercialised, isn't it? But without commercialism, there ain't any tinge of festive spirits!
Other than some intensive shopping, does it still mean anything to you on this day? Do you still celebrate traditionally? Each family I think has its own habits and traditions.
Of course there will be lots of food and drinks when we spend joyous times with friends and family. Family members who are away for the rest of the year will specially come home during this time to gather with the rest of the family.
The important thing is that the Christmas celebration should be right for you and your family.
Cheers and Merry CHRISTMAS!

New mission in life
Today is Christmas Day!
I have a new mission in life starting from this Christmas! I don't wish to ask you to guess it, I never will do such. My new mission is of course I need to spend time sitting in front of the computer to write some online diaries or 'blogs' as the craze goes. I want to be dedicated to this new daily routine by telling you people more about myself and updates you if I have the chance, about psychic Maria Duval, even for some one liners.
Anyone who reads this feel free to tell me how you spent your Christmas? I'd love to hear more from you people.
