Merry Christmas to you all.. I'll bet some of you are having a swell time with your families, loved ones and friends... cool!!! I'm having a nice time here as well with friends, friends and more friends. Honestly, I didn't really feel so enthusiastic about christmas becuase it was always a time of reunion of every member in my family and this year, I wouldn't be joining them to celebrate this lovely christmas season... sigh... well, that's the price of pursuing one's future.
On the other hand, I realised that I was acting naively because I had forgotten the REAL reason for christmas. It struck me how many of us today have compromised the essence and memory of what Christmas really stands for. It's a memorial day in honour of the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Though it isn't recorded officially that he was born on this day, we as christians celebrate his birth because it has many meanings to us and we wish to honour the birth of the savior who died on the cross for us, mindless of what we had done wrong. That's the kind of person I want to strive to become in life... and I'm already striving for it.
It's sad that we're also confronted with our finals coming up shortly after Christmas... what a special xmas gift from our beloved university...*sarcastic*. Well, I've gotta go now.. got some "stuffs" to do before I run out of valuable time.
p.s. I'll really miss you!!
