kuripot krismas
I just realized that it's my first Christmas at work, since I resigned from the last company by November. Then I realized that I envied my friends who had Christmas parties and outings. I stayed at home, (which wasn't even ours since we rented) and had a blue Christmas. Haha baduy.
So now, I guess I should be grateful I didn't resign before the Holidays and received a 14th month bonus. (Binigay yung 13th last August)
Anyway, there's not much work and I guess everyone's distracted. I don't have a Xmas list this time, because I don't plan to buy personal gifts to almost all my close friends. It gets tiring after a while. I used to do that in high school and college. But now that I'm earning my own money, I've become more frugal and practical. I now have a first hand experience of 'money not growing on trees.' Ugh. I don't even know what to give myself. I enjoy giving other people more. I'm that kuripot.
I have no Christmas wishlist - nothing. Well, I'd like to have more savings, that's why. I sometimes don't understand why people give EVERYONE gifts during Christmas. It's Christ's birthday, so I guess we should give him our gift? But some pilosopos will say that He is in each one of us so we should give each other presents. Wow. I'm sure He doesn't want us broke and dreary when the year begins, right? Oh well, Pinas will be Pinas.
So dear friends, don't expect a grand Christmas gift from me because I'm K-U-R-I-P-O-T slash P-R-A-C-T-I-C-A-L. I just really need to save for S-o-m-e-t-h-i-n-g. (wink wink)
P.S. Don't worry, Tatoff I will still give you a wonderful gift. My kuripotness has exceptions. :)
