Think Rich
I got that photo below from a chain e-mail which I received a couple of days ago. Its subject line was “What would you do if you had money as plenty as this?” For a few minutes, I found myself in a deep thought. MMmmmm…Who can possibly resist the joy of spending too much on fabulous shoes and stylish clothes without having to worry about paying the bills? Wouldn’t it be nice to take that dream vacation to Europe? See the magnificent Eiffel Tower or the artistic La Sagrada Familia and just live like a millionaire? You can even support a cause that saves lives or better yet, you can establish your own foundation just like Brangelina or Oprah! The possibilities are literally endless! You can buy a rocket then fly to the moon or travel around the world using a spaceship
Or for the simpler people like me: buy all the yummy chocolates in the world, get a sexy tan in Hawaii, then go back to Manila, share all the freaking money that I got, and just live a normal life…haaay! sarap mangarap
What about you? How are you going to spend your money if you were filthy rich?
Heavy Sleeper
Reading has its own rewards. Sleeping all day is another thing. I am a self-confessed sleeping addict. I’m obsessed with it because I can do so much when I dream - like flying, going to Paris, meeting the man of my dreams (and his beautiful wife? lol) and even the most impossible things can happen such as being reunited with my loved ones who already passed away. For me, sleeping is a wonderful blessing from the Lord. It’s my ticket to a wonderland of love and beauty, a way of escaping from all the troubles and worries of the real world. I’m not saying that I hate reality. All I’m saying is that when I sleep, it seems like I can temporarily forget about everything. I know it sounds absurd but if I would be given the chance, I’d go to Spain to taste their sangria and of course, to experience their siesta
“heller! you can have siesta in Manila!” you say, but I want to do it in Barcelona! period! haha! Ambishosa! Kidding aside, I just want to have a whole day when I can just sleep and read. I’ve been uber busy these past few days and I want to take a rest. You see, I work on a shifting schedule so it’s almost impossible to have a good sleeping habit. Two days to go and night shift’s going to start again. That would be for the whole month of December. Just the mere thought of it is enough to set me on a sad mood
But hey! I still have Sundays ![]()
Christmastime
Whoever said that ‘Christmas is just for lil’ kids’ got it all wrong. I’m all grown up and Christmas never lost its magic for me. I still get giddy everytime I hear carols and I still find myself fawning over the sight of our small house decorated with flickering lights. Although we never had a christmas tree at home, it’s quite expensive lol, our house has always been dressed with musical lights and the traditional parol and the glittering thing my mom hangs on the wall. Sorry, don’t know the exact term for that hehe. Another thing that I always look forward to, aside from family gatherings and reunions, is the kris kringle
(FYI kris kringle or Christkindlein is the German name for the gift-bringing infant Jesus). I loove gifts! I especially like the part of putting the ribbon on top of the gift. It’s beautiful! hehe so it’s really the “wrapping” part that excites me. In fact, when I was a child, I didn’t want to open my gifts because that would mean ruining the colorful wrapper. Same goes with my birthday cakes lol. I didn’t want my visitors to eat the cake because I wanted to preserve its beauty! haha! Sterndal was such a weird kid! But of course, I’m not like that anymore
Now, I’d open the gift right away and I don’t care about the wrapper anymore. But one thing has never changed…I still love Christmas very much! Why not? It’s the time of the year when I can become a child once again
As of this writing, it’s 34 days before that oh-so-happy day!
