tis the season to knock limbs with the mad rush of christmas shoppers and be bowled over by the yuletide. not to be a scrooge or a grinch but, i dont particularly find anything extraordinarily jolly abt december. especially with having to move and the back-breaking packing that comes with it - the thought alone is as potent as a lethal injection.
these days, the simplicity of having 'the thought that counts' just doesnt seem to do it fer most ordinary humans anymore. have been wrecking my brains thinking of satisfactory gifts that i can afford after dividing all that i have among all the recipients i have in mind. rather grim actually ...
its been 3 days since i bid farewell to sabbie monsta, and the desolation seems to have finally sunken in. the only person who wld listen to me whine in the wee hours of the morning, and who'd go whatever distance at whatever time to meet me. i still recall an almost drunken sleepover 2 years ago which didnt quite happen because my mom had called and found out i wasnt home yet at 5 in the morning. we were already at sab's place, brushing our teeth and getting ready fer bed. but of course with a single hysterical phone call from the dragon lady herself, i was nearly pissin in my pants. and sabbie being the angel she is, followed me all the way home and stayed at my place instead.
looks like it'll be some time before i pull any such stunts. come home soon, sabbie :(
one good thing abt this december, or rather 2 good things, is that jin is arnd to spend it with us and so will vic. im just thankful for technology and improved flight paths.
you never know what you've got until its gone, and this applies to everything and anything.
