merry christmas to one and all!
generally speaking, christmas day was a fun and jolly celebration of jesus christ’s birth. before christmas day, i’ve attended three parties.
i attended two parties in school, one for the institute and the other one for the whole college. the institute’s party was more fun than the general one, hehehe.
i also attended a christmas party with my high school classmates. it was well-attended and fun. lou and her hubby, dave, came as well as fe del and her hubby, star. and this classmate of ours in 1st year, erwin, came too! note: these were the ones who rarely attend our high school gatherings.
christmas day itself was spent at home. we didn’t really have noche buena (we slept, hehehe) but we had the whole day of 25th to celebrate…plus christmas dinner.
the year 2008 was generally good…as you’ve read from my blogs, the year didn’t start out right for me but as the days went by it was fine all along. overall, i was able to fulfill my new year’s resolution to not worry about things i can’t do anything about. there were about 2 or 3 times within the year that i was not true to this resolution, though. that’s good enough, right?
i shared with all most of my ups and downs through blogs so you should know. blogging is actually a good way to share about one’s thoughts and feelings. it’s not everyday that you get to share everything to your family and friends as soon as things happen. while you’re waiting to share it to them, blogging will do, hehehe. many people are afraid to share because they think they will be judged, or they will be seen less by other people. but think about this…when you get to share something about yourself, life becomes lighter. don’t think about what other people will say or how they will judge you. your only purpose is to share . and don’t think that other people will see less of you because of what you’ve done or how you feel. in the end, sharing will make you realize that we are not that different from one another…we like the same things, what makes us feel happy or sad or angry is almost the same, what problems others have are the same problems that we have (many times in different forms only). as long as you’re not hurting yourself or anybody, there’s nothing wrong with what you’re doing so feel free to share.
well, i think i should stop talking and talking (well, writing and writing, hehehe). i’ve said enough.
oh, and the downside i was talking about in the title… i have this big, big problem and i have no idea how to help and solve this problem. please, please pray for me, whoever reads this.
