Jolly Season

I watched Four Christmases yesterday, before I was dragged out by Mel from my comfy pyjamas to the stinky Ironbar. Fine, it wasn't entirely stinky, since there were quite a number of hot boys around. Christmas is just around the corner and surprise, I've got nothing planned. Obviously I'm entirely bummed about not being able to celebrate it with my family, but I've accepted the fact that it might just be like that for the next few years of my life. Career-choice issues. Haa :)

Many say Christmas is just another elaborated day where retailers try to suck money out of consumers. It used to be celebrated with purpose, given it was the day Jesus was born. Now. Employees regard it as a day of "double pay", an excuse to splurge on items not needed, and for diet-ers to trade their calorie-counting minds for gluttony. Such joy, but then again, who am I to judge? I'm not going to mock it because it seems that the world sure knows how to have fun. So, yes, Merry Christmas. This year should be an exciting one for me! (For the record, that was partially sacarstic).

Since I'm being haunted by christmas presents (yes, i'm caught in the christmas shopping whirlwind too), I was looking online to see what I could possibly get for my friends and family. I came across, " Divorce Vouchers". Ohyeah, not kidding. Who'd ever thought divorce vouchers could be such a hit!

It'd probably look like this (the cheap basic version), only with more attractive fillings of colours and graphics. Along with an entire list of disclaimers behind the voucher. But then again! Apparently this is the new way of married couples saving lives! So, hey, why not join the fun, gee.

On second thoughts, I think I might stick to sending my mom the old, usual cookbooks. And my dad. Lets see, my dad, I could definitely get him a tie. That'd be way better than a divorce voucher....

YES?

I think I have a day off on the 25th. Trying to figure out what I should do. Maybe a church service will be good. Or, pudding and carolling. Again, Merry Christmas! 6 days and counting!
