Merry Christmas! :)
Truth be told I was kinda mopping around. And listening to "I'll Be Home for Christmas" is not helping at all. This Christmas isn't as "merry" as it could be, being mostly alone in this room with nothing much going on and no where to go and no one to meet.
Initially there were plans. But... what to do when people forget? I'll just dust myself and move on while that person is tagged with a a big black dot, reminding myself that perhaps the person is not worth investing anymore.
I have nice friend(s) who were so kind to help me celebrate or at least have some bit of fun during these few days. She took me with her to have Indian food again yesterday. And in the afternoon we watched a really nice Hindi movie. So I've had a nice Indian Christmas Eve :) I watched The Grinch and Hachiko on my laptop. Nice movies. And today, I went to the Mines. I wanted to have a decent meal at least on Christmas day. So I had prosperity burger with extra fries (thus the re-use of the picture above, a very fries-y Christmas xD) and got some crafty stuff from beloved Daiso and... that's basically it. I went with two other friends/course mates.
Another friend mentioned that we could have a tour in my uni because he has never been here. But yeah, wait and see if the friend still plan on coming. Due to the festive mood, I do not want to do any work. A few days of holiday after such a long time of studying. Can't wait to go home and not having to study for a month. But my hands are itching to do a craft project. I just got two sets of felt. Not entirely sure what to do with it yet except for a few rough ideas. We'll see if I'll start the project today or these few days. Things that I need to do still hang around in my mind but, yeah. I don't want to do it >< Will find some other time to do it.
For me, Christmas is a time to get together and have fun, fellowship with dear ones. Be it attending a service or the best, having nice dinners, or even just hanging out for yum chas, it is the time together that counts. Yes, my love language is the the gift of quality time. Kinda regret not going back this time round. But it is hard to decide because airfare is not cheap. And to go back for just a few days... I don't know whether it is worth the price of the airfare. And plus, I thought I have that home friend that I could celebrate with. But who knows, I was forgotten. And I thought of going to the church on my own but the person in charge of the transport also did not get back with me as well. So perhaps, maybe, next year I'll go back. At least I have a place to go and food to eat and people to be with.
I hope you have a more happening Christmas this year :)
