10. heated debates on religion, spirituality, divinity and the likes with my beloved father
9. buying too much christmas cards. last count 40 and mailing them with overpriced high season courier mail (read: smirk) to my beloved best friends all over the world.
8. getting christmas presents wrapped in pink paper with a huge pink bow, delivered to my house, and already waiting for me under the christmas tree on christmas morning.
7. buying presents for people. most of the times, it is so much better than receiving. cliche? i'll let you decide.
6. one word, freedom from school hysterics. a euphoric hiatus.
5. sugar cookies and baking until some ungodly hour
4. having all the time in the world to write. cross that. you never have all the time in the world to write, but there's something about christmas that makes me think that it is okay to ignore all my holiday assignments, like reading harimau, harimau and the inferno. like typing up my biology lab report on photosynthesis. there's still three more weeks of holiday and belles aires is calling my name.
3. spontaneous dinners at awesome grills with family
2. shopping, shopping with my best friends and taking endless christmas pictures
1. the midnight christmas mass at church, which always for reasons beyond my understanding, constantly make me shed a tear or two.
