lesson #125: merry christmas, everyone!

It's Christmas today! So just for today, shed all your worries and sadness and anxieties and heartaches. Just for today, forget about feeling insecure and small and all the other bad stuff! Because today we celebrate something truly magical. The birth of Jesus! And even though I felt a little lazy to go to church this morning, looking back, now I'm glad that I went. Not sure why I'm glad, but I am.


OK, enough religious talk. Had a quiet day at home so far, spent it mostly online playing Solitaire Showdown with G. Beat him like, 16 games to 11 games. Challenge me some time, I'm good!


Speaking of G, he gave me a custom gift set from Bodyshop. It's the strawberry set that I've raved on in this blog before - consisting of shower gel, body lotion, exfoliating scrub and perfume oil! Oh gosh. I love it so much. I sort of hinted to him before that I wanted the set, but then he told me that he couldn't afford it. I understand, because he did have to buy presents for the rest of his friends and he's spent more than enough on me as it is. (Yes, yes... I'm high maintenance.) But then yesterday, he made me look for my Christmas present myself. So after much searching, I caught a glimpse of... a huge pink Bodyshop gift box! *GAAAASP*


It was definitely a surprise! Didn't expect it at all. Was so happy that bimbotic giggles kept escaping from my mouth. And I am still happy! Went to bathe just now with my new juicy shower gel. The heady strawberry scent is heavenly. G, thank you so much for... everything!
