this christmas, i find it hard to say 'merry christmas' and mean it. well, at least for today.
christmas seemed to zoom up so quickly, like i only realised it was coming a week ago. and.. i didn't feel any of the hype of previous years. didn't even consider getting presents or anything.
why?
1) something else on my mind
2) no christmas service in church!
Every year there'll be a christmas service where there'll be a nice speaker who comes in and gives the christmas msg and everyone is dressed up nice and we go carolling after that and whee fun fun.
This year.. no christmas service! gg! bay christmas party on sunday? the variety of food was quite.. little. chicken wing and the triangle thing. =X what's a party without (alot of) food?
well ok there is carolling tomorrow, but it's not the same when it's not after service. AND, it's sooo last minute and there seems to be no organisation at all. no musician, no song sheet... whaaat. i wonder how it's gonna turn out.
3) perhaps last year's christmas musical was so fun and memorable that the absence of any major event makes this year seem so empty.
i mean, even though i had only one line in the entire skit, i thoroughly enjoyed the practice sessions and the hanging out with the xmas crew and the waiting to perform and the putting on of stage makeup (haha) and.. everything!
like, how often do you walk through PS singing carols? (to generate publicity as it was a rainy day )
But was this year's christmas (period) memorable? for sure. =)
