Believe in the Magic of Christmas

I'm sooo feeling Christmas!!! I haven't gone shopping yet..nor do I plan to since I've no money anyway..but I'm really happy for this year's Christmas. It's still 18 days away but I just know this year will be the best.

Marga's status tonight is "feeling the spirit of Christmas...BUT." Knowing Marga, I know what that meant. Something's missing of course, and I know what she wanted because that's exactly what I want too. I asked her anyway.

"You know a guy that will make it more special. Hahahaha."

I couldn't agree more, but...it's the holidays and it just wouldn't be right if I feel bad just because I don't have a "special someone." Sure, I wanna cuddle and whatever (lamig pa naman!)..but...I've got my friends. Tons of friends who make me happy and feel special...so that's the ultimate Christmas gift dontchathink?

Still...there's one thing that's keeping me from having a MERRY MERRY Christmas. Ironically, it's my parents. And the Sarmiento Family Drama continues. Gawwddd. Actually..I'm making it sound like it's that bad. It's just that everytime we're together as a family (meaning the children are with the parents), we just lose it. When I'm with my siblings, we're all good. It's just my parents!!! I dunno why they can't stand us and we can't stand them. Or...it's just my dad who is becoming an a-hole. Seriously. One second, we're having a good time but when he enters and sees all these little things like dirt or hair on the floor, he'd start nagging. It's just sooo annoying.

We attended a Christmas Party with all of Dad's barkada and their families. We fought before going there because they never told us there was a P5,000 penalty (which of course wasn't implemented) when we're late. And we wouldn't have been late had they told us the party started at 5pm. They kept complaining, as usual. Ate Erin's pissed of course, Kuya Nono feels like he didn't do anything wrong by not doing anything, I came home from school cos of a paper and I was finishing all the other papers I was supposed to do, Zaza was the official caterer. When we got there, my great dad explained why we're late (mentioning that we were fighting because the kids were blah blah). My great mom on the other hand, asked the other parents if they ever complained about their kids. I mean...what was that?! What a great way to make a good first impression to your friends, parents!!! I just don't get them, still...

And maybe I don't want to. For now... I'll enjoy the comfort of my friends who support and understand me. At least when I'm with them, I feel Christmas.

Bad vibes out!!!

Okay...so this is my current favorite song. It's up there with Stellar and Underneath the Waves. I've been playing this song for weeks..and it will never get old.

Brighter than Sunshine
-Aqualung


I never understood before
I never knew what love was for
My heart was broke, my head was sore
What a feeling

Tied up in ancient history
I didnt believe in destiny
I look up you're standing next to me
What a feeling

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
Brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, i don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine
and it's brighter than sunshine

I never saw it happening
I'd given up and given in
I just couldn't take the hurt again
What a feeling

I didn't have the strength to fight
suddenly you seemed so right
Me and you
What a feeling

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
It's brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine

It's brighter than the sun
It's brighter than the sun
It's brighter than the sun, sun, shine.

Love will remain a mystery
But give me your hand and you will see
Your heart is keeping time with me

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
It's brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine

I got a feeling in my soul ...

What a feeling it is...dunno exactly how he feels, but the song at least makes me feel like I actually do.
