Grow up in the most perfect place ever. Move. Not come back for three years. Come for the holidays. Fall in love all over again.

With the place, haha! Baka misleading kina Taba. ;p

I've been home since the 24th in the dead of the night; or early morning, that is. We smuggled to the back part of our old house in Binan that we kept to keep our stuff, got a mattress, in the dark--the tenant of the front part of the house went away for the holidays and turned off the fuse box. Bungisngis ako nang bungisngis sa dilim. Mama: "Madali pala maging magnanakaw..." May bago siyang pwedeng career choice.

I don't know what to write about anymore that would do justice to how much I fell in love with living here again.

I'd mostly been shopping (hehe) but I'm making it a point to make my 10-day stay worthwhile. I stay in my tita's condo (which I love) with my parents and my gramma. I spent time with both my mom's and dad's side of the family on Christmas. Just yesterday, we went home to Binan and I hung out for a while with my long lost girlfriends ( oo, mga shota ko!!! Hahaha!!! BTW, pics from yesterday are on Lara's site, http://mylittleburberry.multiply.com/photos/album/112/KIT?replies_read=1 I was so flattered to have a post named after me. :]] ), kahit kulang pa kami ng isa (Jasmiiiiiiiine). I'll be coming back in the next three days, which, by the way, is all the time I have left. On Jan first, babangluksa of my gramps in Batangas. (Babangluksa is a Catholic tradition of prayer for family and friends of the deceased, tapos kainan afterwards. Every year yata. We're not Catholic, but gramps and the rest of the family, actually, is. Hardcore Catholic din dati si Mama.) From there, straight on to Davao. Hello, perpetual sunshine and workloads once more. Oh well. Halos two months na lang.

That's another thing I've been thinking about. In a month, I might be told I will be studying here. In a few more weeks after that, I'll be enrolling. And moving. And studying here. And leaving Davao, and my family, and my church, and my school. Talk about detachment. While I was riding the MRT to my dad's family, I was all, I will have to do this. Every day. Without my parents. I think I this was more than just riding the railway transit.

I can't believe how dramatic my life has to be. :))

Oh yeah, I still hate Krispy Kreme. Do you know how much oil goes into that to make it soft? I can taste the oil on my tongue, it's horrible. And confectionary sugar, which is unhealthy???

Watch this Super Size Me documentary. I think you can find it on YouTube. It's this healthy vegetarian guy who ate just McDo for a whole month (he was curious, and trying to make a statement), and he got all these kidney problems and stuff. It was all irreversible. It's gross.

There, I'm rambling again. In fact, I always ramble now on my blog. Sorry about that. That's been making my posts boring to everyone, I know. :))

Merry Christmas. Enjoy the season: it's not here for long. And always remember the reason for the season (Yo.).
